I noticed a bit of a blow from under the front whist competing in the Rallye at the weekend, had it up on the ramp today expecting a snapped bolt between the manifold and downpipe but it's a bloody crack in one of the pipes just before the collector.

Dead common, I've had a few that have started cracking, always just before the collector too. They weld really nicely though if you have a MIG or know someone with one. You can usually do it on the car too, which saves an awful lot of f**king about!

As said, It's very common and much like the early 1.9 Mi16 one's have the same problem, they are getting on now so it will get even worse
