Split exhaust box

  1. Hi All,

    My termi exhaust box has split again on my 2003 999 after being previously welded. It has split on the top near the larger single rear fixing.
    Like to know if this is a common problem. It's stainless steel.

    Regards,

    Mark.

  3. It's a 999, so just as ugly :tongue:

  4. Yup common problem, it weighs quite a bit and there's only a single bolt holding it to the subframe and 3 spots welds on the plate, likewise mono subframes crack at this point also. I'd just get it rewelded and carry on.

  5. I genuinely wasn't aware they made the 999 back in '93....
