Looks like you made a good choice by going with perrin. Any clue why the Borla cracked? Bad weld or is it due to the flex section creating uneven expansion ect possibly?

Thank you. Here is my current gear. I'm a prime guy

Olympus OM-D EM5
Olympus 12mm f/2.0
Panasonic 20 f/1.7
Panasonic 25mm f/1.4
Olympus 60mm f/2.8 macro
Olympus 75mm f/1.8
FL-600R Wireless Flash

I do post processing in Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CC.



I think the combination of poor welding plus the heat from FI plus a track day ultimately led to the crack. I think there is no way to really know for sure.
