Default Kooks turbo header (for those that have it)

Any ideas on keeping it from cracking?

Tonight I blew the wastegate pipe extention thing out at the track. After my run, the car was loud as hell. Popped the hood to see the wastegate, flange and part of the pipe just chillin on the tranny (wastegate was completely off the manifold). Still managed to dip into the 11's though

...Greg Samaroo (FROG, Cheetah, etc) had nothing but problems with his Kooks. Got good practice welding it every week though haha!

Terry built another car with a smiliar setup. Both terry and paul were rippin up e-town and reppin for all the hondas out there. Get that flange fixed and get back to the track to run some 10's. Nice pases. Hey paul, how did you like the top end on 6.5 psi in the tires?
