Took my car into the shop to find out why my exhaust was droning. They found two cracks in the mid-muffler. The one in the picture was 4in long, the other one was a little less than an inch. Thanks to Jared at Stasis for getting this sorted out, and also to the guys at EPWerks.

I have never seen any other Stasis exhaust V2 fail at that weld like yours and I "product test" the heck out of them at the track. It seems like maybe the back of the weld wasn't purged properly. Or maybe just a "bad" unit. It can happen.
That said, I was really pleased at how Stasis took care of us during the replacement process. I'm glad to hear that Jared is getting you squared away properly.

Apparently they are on v3 now. The welds on the new part were more robust. There is also a grid pattern of welds on both the top and bottom pans that were not present on the part that failed.
Here is a picture of the new part:
