Default Micron can problems.

I've managed to split my Micron Titanium Race can for a second time due, again, to the packing burning out sooner than anticipated. Micron recommended I re-pack it at 2000-3000 miles. (And also advised me not to replace the can with a carbon one, due to the back-pressure on SV650 engines.)

Last time I did this I got a free replacement. Another would be nice, but I'm getting pretty sick of broken titanium sleeves!

Do any other Micron users have these problems?
Has anyone put a different can on Micron header pipes?
Should I just be far more careful at recording my mileage and regularly changing the packing?

And surely, if the can splits down the join seam that means it isn't joined properly. I did a little welding at college and a good weld is as strong as the original material.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
