Not complaining, because I was warned that these mufflers will last about 1 year on supercharged cars that are tracked, so I expected it.

Its just the tip, weld it back on!

My welding skills suck, might cut it off and just add pipe extension for now, but the muffler has other issues that aren't making it track worthy with my Header type. Phil's flexible hanger setup will remove stress that keeps separating my muffler from the U bend (even with a "good" clamp).
