There are few ACE headers out there that cracked. I think the usual cause is too much torsional load which supposedly happens when you pair the header with a cheap aftermarket catback. I am running the CSG Touring catback and the JDL ultra quiet FP. The JDL FP does not use spring-loaded bolts where it connects to the catback. This time, I came up with longer bolts and switched the springs from the OEM bolts.

But in general, I break things. I broke many OEM and aftermarket parts on different platforms. My wife said I should test parts for car and parts manufacturers. And stop breaking her wine glasses.
My wheel is the same way, slightly off to the left. Next alignment I'll have it centered, but besides that I've loved it!

I must have missed those posts on the failures, but I believe you it happens. Hopefully your repair holds up. I'm still interested to hear your thoughts on the hydraulic TOB.
