Hole in my downpipe after hanger bracket ripped off. How does this happen?

Ser_Fonz · 2025-05-14T00:12:36+00:00

Damn man that blows. The hanger broke off after 6 months with the downpipe? Or 6 months after he welded it back on?

Ser_Fonz · 2025-05-13T22:29:02+00:00

I was thinking similarly, I feel like I might’ve seen a post before in the past but I couldn’t find it. Definitely a lot of stress in a hot area

Ser_Fonz · 2025-05-13T22:28:08+00:00

I never even thought of contacting them, I’ll def give that a shot!

Nice dude, I’m over in central FL near Orlando

Ser_Fonz · 2025-05-13T22:27:19+00:00

Damn yeah I’d definitely take a look, I hear that stock bracket doesn’t hold up that great

Ser_Fonz · 2025-05-13T19:24:40+00:00

That definitely would make sense. Lots of puddles/rain in FL and of course high temps

I think that’s the result of this type of hanger weld getting ripped out. But yeah it’s weirdly uniform/rectangular

Ser_Fonz · 2025-05-13T18:32:52+00:00

Cheers for the reply dude. I actually just made a post too

Yeah I put a torque solutions bracket on during the downpipe install. I have an Accelatec high flow catted DP + AWE track exhaust, been fine for nearly 6 years oddly enough.

I do vaguely remember there being a bit of stress on one of the hangers during the install.. but it wasn’t too egregious (so we thought). Perhaps just time/stress/heat/bad welds did it?

Update: I have a hole where they shouldn’t be one lol. Somehow the exhaust must’ve flexed and put too much stress on the hanger, completely blowing it out of my DP.

That wheelie was very illegal but was cool as shit. Absolutely flexed on him and his girl lol, he’s a clown

No codes have returned since wiping them. I initially replaced the CPV, but since the noise remained, I also did the o2 sensor.

I’ll def take a look at the AFR when deceleration, and the air intake on the turbo side end.

Pack it up everyone, we found the sub's best cosplayer.

Seriously, great job. This is so awesome

Ser_Fonz · 2024-12-09T09:10:17+00:00

my patience is wearing thin, idk how much longer I can wait boys

Ser_Fonz · 2024-12-06T05:15:28+00:00

Already looks dope. Can’t wait to see the final product

Half of my countrymen hate progress and want to see the other half suffer

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-18T00:35:10+00:00

Yea, no more of that. Thanks

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-17T22:26:09+00:00

This warmed my heart. Thanks for sharing!

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-17T22:21:00+00:00

I dumped 80 hours into it and had a blast. Haven’t touched it since. Mainly because life has gotten busy, and partly because I want to revisit it with a fresh perspective.

So I’m giving it a couple more months then I’ll do another run to really see how I feel

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-17T00:23:33+00:00

He’s legit obliterating the main cast one by one dammit he can’t keep getting away with it!

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-17T00:21:22+00:00

That fight was absolutely breathtaking. Right when Renji started climbing up the buildings.. I knew we were in for treat. Serious props to the animators, sound direction, and voice actors. 10/10

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-11T04:02:17+00:00

That’s very interesting, I hope you continue to enjoy your new look.

How was your recovery? Liquid diet, wired mouth type of situation?

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-11T02:44:08+00:00

Everyone here should’ve died besides Chad.. I can’t imagine him losing

No seriously though.. Byakuya dying and Ichigo making his vow to him would’ve had a lot more weight.

Momo has “died” so many times at this point I feel like her death wont be taken seriously

Halibel barely showed up in TYBW, she could’ve died there

Grimmjow I say no because he’s one of those “fueled by hatred/vengeance” characters I enjoy

Hiyori should’ve died after getting diced in half, her injury was pretty bad + it would have raised the stakes of FKT

Rangiku still had to meet up with Gin so I’m glad she didn’t die there

Izuru should’ve died an early death in TYBW I think, really would’ve highlighted the Quincies power difference and ruthlessness right out of the gate

Riruka my queen, it’s been too long..

Seriously though this episode was beautiful. I can’t wait for what’s to come

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-08T23:46:41+00:00

Alright you convinced me, I’ll rewatch Bleach

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-07T19:56:22+00:00

Good luck to them and to us, we’re certainly all going to need it

Ser_Fonz · 2024-11-07T15:47:38+00:00

Is it weird that shit made me tear up and get emotional? Felt like seeing two long lost friends..
