Downpipe Destruction!!
Well the other day I started my car and to my surprise I had a massive exhaust leak. I figured out that it was coming from my header so I pulled the downpipe off today and this is what I found.

For no apparent reason the welds that attached this hanger just broke completely. I guess that is what I get for taking the cheap way out and buying a Megan header. I am going to try to re-weld the hanger on but I don't know how well it will work out.

There is another rubber exhaust hanger for the downpipe, so it hangs just fine without being bolted to the back of the oil pan.
