I think your engine mounts are beyond worn. That, or you're driving it like you stole it.

I drive like shit everyday and when my warranty is up i will drive normal.
I just set up an account for our shop with rol mfg and now i can get my exhaust stuff at cost.
I do have mounts just hard launches and some decent traction.

christ man... other LSJs hit the track weekly and still don't see those probs... hell i haven't heard of another one complain about the flex joints - but i probably don't pay attention to those threads :)

actually I've seen a bunch destroyed below 10,000 miles my friends just went yesterday on his car at 24,000 miles. I broke one myself, but just driving I hit the gas and it blew apart. But it is from engine movement.... excessive engine movement that is

I blew my stock flex joint off, and blew off my zzp downpipe, but that was because of lame ass bolts they gave me

I split the downpipe on my car, it's stock and I had only had it for a week. Did a burnout, and next thing ya know, it sounds like I'm driving a NOPI car. It's been fine since then, but I'd seriously recommend getting better motor mounts.

That's why I went with a triple walled SS flex-pipe on my exhaust. Shit will never break, it'll just let something else break, lol...
