I have the latest generation FabSpeed exhaust on my 02 Boxster S, and yesterday one of the welds on the midpipes between the resonator section completely failed, separating the tubing from the resonator entirely. My Box sounds like an old beat up pickup truck now!
I have talked to Imagine Auto in Kansas City, who is one of their largest dealers, who expects FabSpeed to replace that midpipe, but I am considering sourcing a set of high flow cats and welding those in where the resonators are so that I can go to a non catted header.
I'll keep you guys posted
