RV6 Products

How is everyones RV6 jpipes, exhaust, pre cats doing?

On my way home today I noticed my exhaust was super loud and raspy. So I get home park my car into the garage. Open the hood inspect it, no problem, look under the car, no problem. So as I stand behind the car I noticed my passenger side muffler drooping. As I go to reach down and lift up the muffler I find out that the whole muffler has broken off the piping. I park my car in the garage daily and never had any of these issues previously with say my magnaflow cat back from my previous acura.

what gives? are these rv6 products made that cheap that the muffler broke off, I did not run into anything. I am pissed off. This was the first batch generation 1 rv6 for base aspec kit.

I have seen bad jpipes before but this just is unbelievable. I guess you get what you pay for....

you should talk to richie first, he's a stand up guy and he'll want to know details, see pics, etc. it's all part of figuring out why it failed.
sorry to hear about that

you are right, maybe this isnt the best approach to what happened. I will reach out to Richie. I just don't have time for this right now.

Take a few pictures and send them over to him so he can better understand what happened. Sometimes welds to fail over time and components do go bad. Someone here had an exhaust from another maker which opened up. The vendor send them a new exhaust and everyone was happy!
