Hi Guys,

Got a broken muffler bracket, any thoughts regards upgrade, Carpisto or Fab speed??


Carpristo Fab speed.

I have the Capristo. It was assembled with some high temp grease under the spring caps, and this leave a witness mark showing how much everything expands when hot. This explains why the originals crack and I think the Fab Speed will crack just the same is the crap factory brackets.

, i heard that it can be done away with all together, with no replacement!!

Good luck with that ........... the weight of the cat and silencer will crack the headers in a few hours of use

you dont need a muffler gearbox bracket, this is what caused the problem in the first place it blocks heat expansion

I spoke to AV engineering and they remove the brackets and adjust the remaining brackets to hold the exhaust in place, The central bow bracket allows for plenty of room for the exhaust to grow. AV have great reviews, so hoping it works.
