crack in borla header

Post by v95 » Sat Mar 28, 2009 1:00 pm

i just looked at my borla header on tube number three while changing the oil and it has a small crack in it. is there a weld patch that i can use to stick over it to fix that. so i don't have to pay big bucks to get fixed

Just weld up the crack with appropriate filler wire.

It shouldn't cost much more than $20 to weld a crack, esspecially since it's not cast metal.

1 million miles. But if you don't have a receipt, I'm sure you might have trouble making it stick.

I'm sure it would be voided by in improper tune also.
