Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - 2nd Problem with CNT HFCs --- blew out a hole

Something just doesn't add up with this story. I have had the CNT Resonated Test Pipes on the car for a year without an issue (Forced Induction mind you). I remember reading the weld around the 02 bung cracking and causing the fouler to come out on someone's car about a year ago.

OP, I'm assuming the weld may have cracked causing the bung and 02 sensor to drag on the road, tearing it off by the wires?

I will admit, they're not the best welds. Also, using the "L" Non-Fouler adds even more stress to the weld, possibly causing it to weaken and crack.

Like I said though, maybe I have just lucked out not having issues.
