Default Warranties on Comptech exhaust

yeah, it's been a lil bit over 3 years and my axleback has been stained (insides and outside of tip), i've been runnin a testpipe along with a 2.5" str8 pipe for about 2k miles--so that's the case

whats the deal with them giving me a new one?

lol, anyway around it, if i put my stock bpipe and cat on?
or is it totally void since it';s after 3 years

Aluminized or stainless?

Aluminized is not lifetime guaranteed.
SS might me if rusted through.

But yours is only "dirty"?

I highly doubt they'll warranty a stained exhaust after 3 years... maybe if it was rusted though they would... I don't think you have much chance in your case...

Is it broken due to a manufacturers defect? If not you will not get a replacement unless you purchase a new one.

I assumed that their exhaust was CARB legal. However, I just checked their web site and it does not claim to be.

What did the fax say?

Anything down stream of the cat is not required to meet CARB guidelines...well maybe it might say that you need a muffler, the muffler section in within the CVC laws. A muffler according to the legal people include anything that muffler the sound, ie. a resonator in the exhaust.

Sympathy...come on, he's trying to get someone to give him something by a fraudulent activity...once you buy the part its upkeep is your domain, if it fails due to a form on manufacturers defect then they should replace it, but just becuase the thing's dirty Go out an buy some Mother's Aluminium polish and spend some time cleaning it, that's what I did and the exhaust looked damn near brand new again...some people just amaze me
