I've read a lot of posts about the saito flex mufflers cracking in two. I'm about to mount one on my 1.20 what are some mounting techniques to avoid this problem? Will have it traveling through a piece in 1/2" think plywood on its way out of the plane is this enough support? All feed back greatly appreciated.

The flex pipe needs to be supported at the end. Either by putting a bracket on the muffler( If used) or by holding the end of the flex pipe. The reason some people have had cracks is they leave it unsupported, and vibration causes it to crack
