The only agreement should be 100% free replacement

Ya, Im sure they will do that. The only thing Im concerned about is the cost to pay someone else to install it. Im within driving range of the vendor so hopefully we can work out something with that. Its a reputable vendor so Im not worried. I just want my car back to tip top shape!

Hate to say it but the clogged cat is likely from the tune. You should be chasing the tuner not the seller of the dp unless they are he same people.

maybe its spitting too much unburnt gas out and thats clogging it? but if zzp is who tuned you i'm 99% sure they wouldn't tune it like that... idk anything about tuning though. too bad you don't have tools; all you need is some wrenches and jackstands lol

Check resonator as well. Mine decided to explode itself and rattle the rear most baffle free causing all the sound deadener to clog. Thought it was clogged cat as well when it happened. Make sure to get pictures of everything.

I ran catless with my Corsa catback at one point.

It did not sound raspy or bad, but it did sound "hollow".

Most catbacks will sound raspy with a catless downpipe though.

Due to your word, I am jumping into the world of catless lol. I've got the corsa too so I hope it doesn't sound ricey!
