Another reason I always highly recomend the Fabspeed Maxflo mufflers. I put well over 30,000 miles and 35 track days on a set and they were still going strong when I sold my car. I bet they will last hundreds of thousands of miles and hundreds of track days.

Just in case anyone's curious, the problem turned out to be the same issue as last time -- the "sport on/off" valve inside the driver's side resonator broke and was causing the noise. OPC replaced exhaust under warranty and I got the car back on Friday.
Start the countdown for this one failing.

My PSE is shot as well. It started a a buzz/rattle that went away when the car warmed up. Now it's always there. Sounds horrible. Had the dealer take a look - the right muffler has a bracket that is cracked. The left muffler has something broken inside.
PSE hacked to be loud full time. 36K miles.
CPO *does not* cover muffler replacement. I never bothered to get the buzz fixed during the original warranty period as I assumed that they were normal and would be covered in any case.
Filed a claim with PCNA to see if they will cover the replacement.
