In surprised xforce don't put a bracket there somewhere to support it. There is a lot of weight on that weld and the back of the turbo. I'll be getting mine braced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want it fixed before it falls off and I cant drive my car to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP, thought about getting a stainless dump instead. Very unlikely to fail then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I had the zf there was no mount for the middle section. WeirdStainless exhausts seem to be outlasting the mild steel + was advised to get the stainless dump for exactly the above reason.

It's only secured at the turbo and the cat. However, there is plenty of support if you have the mid section mounted to the gearbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
