He is going to try and get a clearer picture, so when he sends it to me, I will post it up.

So, you didn't happen to run over anything, and your saying that it just came undone from normal driving?

This is unusual, and has me scratching my brain, as from the pics it looks to have broken NOT at the weld, but after the weld.

in my opnion and this is strictly opnion! it look like you took a bump or a pot hole too fast and it cracked it or busted it good then with the normal wear and tear of driving and the added heat of going up to 6k BOOM! because it doesnt look like a weld break in my opnion.... can you get some pics of the break from rear after it broke?

I am baffled on this one. I have seen upwards of 6k RPM on our car, and even shoot flames out the back, but I have not had such happen to us. This is very strange, and the first of it's kind I have seen.

Either way, I'll still buy it from ya... :D

Loosing the OEM pivot points in the exhaust may have over stressed the exhaust system.

it was broken at the axle back and its in the shop now and they are taking a look at it. i think im gonna get it fixed and sell it, if i get it fixed i at least want 250 for it the zpi exhaust go for 500+ he called me and said its gonna run around 100 just to fix it cause i cant drive like this till i get my new exhaust. i really dont even know what exhaust would work best with a turbo either the dezod or megan.

Spend $300 and get the Tsudo. It fits well too.

I'm glad both Kenny and Shaun were able to talk to you and I believe, helped you out with answers and are taking good care of you... It's nice to be able to call the company directly and get answers... as it avoids all the opinion and such that gets thrown around here without mercy.

Props to Kenny and Keisha for being right on top of it...
