Some wierd stuff happened to me today wanted ome opinions. I have a 1990 240 hatch with sr swap and hks wastegate actuator. been driving it for a while and everything has been fine. While I was driving home today I was in top of second and all of a sudden I herd a loud noise and saw a piece of metal fly out from under me. immediately the car stalled out so i stopped on the side. i went to go find the piece that flew off. it was the elbo coming from the cold side of my fmic(xs power).. When i inspected it I noticed only 3 shitty welds had been holding this thing on.. What do you guys think I should do get just another cold pipe? help would be appriciated

Get it rewelded? Shouldnt take that long or cost that much...

Reweld is the cheapest way. XS Power doesnt have the best reputation, which is why they are cheap. You Get what you pay for. Good Luck
