Dude threads like this are pointless
You shoulda made the thread after richie replaced it no questions asked
He does offer a full lifetime warranty, course he likes to have the pipe back so he can get credit for it having been returned and it also allows the manuf to correct the issue of why that pipe failed

Good point
I am convinced it may also be a flaw in the installers part of they don't tighten the 4bolt flange last. And also it only requires to be torqued to no more than 15lbs
I'd migweld it if it was at the seam, then spray the entire think black rather than having to deal with shipping rofl

I don't think that was his intention at all, I think he was trying to see if anyone else had experienced the same issue. We all know RV6 has great products, the test pipes are a blessing for the 3G TL best bang for your buck.

So richie sent me a new precat, I had it installed..I drove around maybe 100miles and on the way back home my CEL came on P305...then p302.. So I pulled into a gas station... My navi was directing me to the nearest Acura dealer(oakland Acura)..on my way there the car really started sputtering bad and then all of a sudden it cut off on me.. It wouldn't start up again so
i had it towed to Oakland Acura.. The code p0341 popped up(camshaft position I think)..I gonna take my precats off and take it to the dealer.. Any idea why this happened?

So I took the car to the dealer I'll keep you updated, There was a bunch of blown fuses and we replaced them and finally got it started.. I was missing pretty badly with a blinking CEL.. It was running so rich you could smell the gas...
