anyone have their aftermarket exhaust break through their heatsheild and begin to damage their gas tank? solutions? gotta get it fixed this weekend.help is appreciated guys. thanks.

 

never heard of that happening...what freakin' exhaust are you using??

 

First time i heard such thing!!

 

I am using an greddy evo 2 the break in the heatshield is at the flange between the b pipe and the muffler. I thought it might be due to the slight frame shift that occured when I got rearended but that was 3 years ago and it was before I got the exhaust. I think I need a thick piece of shore A rubber between the tank and the shield. . I cant grind down the flange either.

 

I have a similer problem, my factory exaust has rusted through and has snapped(broken, in two pieces not one tube) after the cats at a gaskget and i dont know how this happened.

 

You just answered your own question.
