Exhaust Leak in my CES Midpipe

Post by georryan »

So I've found an exhaust leak in my CES exhaust. It is in the midpipe. I just found a crack that has developed on the underside of the midpipe right where the resonator starts to buldge. Would this be backed up by CES as a failure of the part or would it be easier/cheaper to just go have an exhaust shop fix it. It is stainless steal, but that shouldn't matter, right?

Well I don't know, I'd definitely give Trevor @ CES a call about it but it would probably be something that he would fix as long as you ship it to him. The time and expense of which would probably be much worse then just paying someone $40 to Tig weld the crack...

Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking.
