As SOHC said, I thought this was a Ti problem. Sorry to hear!

Exhaust is going to have to be cut into... I think they grind down the welds and open the resonator, replace the crappy sound deadening material and fix/ re-weld the broken pieces. Happens on a lot of brittle ti exhausts, first Ive heard of happening on a SS exhaust. So much for JDM build quality. Shows you only get what you payed for... the name.

Here is a picture of the new welds on my trust Ti R, courtesy of CPR racing:
