They have supposedly fixed this problem with a much stronger tab but my last set (3rd) has broken a tab after less than a month and a half of normal use. So I'm kinda shying away from Magnaflow. But thanks

I didn't know that. I have this system new in the box waiting for me to install the new motor. I've been debating if I want to use mufflers on the system anyway. I was thinking of going strait back with 3" eliminators with four tips under the center of the rear bumper. Noise isn't an issue since it's track only.

Another thread discussed this issue. According to posts on that threat, Magnaflow has fixed the problem and will honor their life time warranty. One of mine has broken also, but I haven't cut it off and called them for a replacement.
