There is also something to be said about the motor twisting on the motor mounts, header to midpipe flange bottoming against the chassis, and putting stress on everything.

I got these pictures from someone that is a friend of the owner, not sure if they are on the forum here too.
That's my car, just came off the dyno last Monday and took it to the track later that week.

Half way through a session my exhaust became way louder, looked under the car and found that.

I will also add, I took measures to minimize NVH as much as possible as well.
The engine I have is a 4Piston K24 short block and their Pro TSX head, I have a Fluidampr crank pulley and a Radium fuel pulse damper.

Currently working with KPower to try and sort out the issue.
