S2000's are known for hot exhausts but with the racing gas I cracked and disintegrated all of the welds in the test pipe it literally fell apart. I have it as a trophy in my shop and had T1r send me a brand new one saying it just fell apart one day.

I had some flanges welded to my S's test pipe so I could wrap it in the stock cat heat shields... it lasted about 6 months before I started hearing this ringing noise. Took me another 6 months before I tracked it down to the test pipe. when I took it off, two of the four brackets had ripped holes in the tube wall. Looks like the heat was just so bad it affected the stainless surrounding the welds. Pity.
