My Ultimate Racing High Flow Cat Blew

Does anyone know if the Ultimate Racing High Flow Cat has warranty? I believe mine just blew because I heard a clicking sound. Don't know why it blew though. I just had it for about a month. Thanks.

Yeah, I just called them. They said I have to send it back for them to check, then they will send me a new one.

Ultimate Racing is nice, they replaced me a brand new Hi Flo Cat without any charges. Thank you very much Darryl.

I believe they offer a 5 year warranty on all their parts.

From What I've experienced (and every one else I can think of) UR is a fantastic company to deal with. They will take care of you!!!

Do you ever find out what exactly happened to the cat that caused the noise?

arn't they supposed to (all cats for that matter) make a clicking noise since the metal is expanding and contracting due to the heat?

Hey Turbo4g63,

When does it click? Is it while you are under WOT?

Or is it when you just stop the car after it has been driving for awhile and you hear it from the outside when you get out of the car?

If it's the second situation, then that's perfectly normal because it is the exhaust piping cooling....This sound also happens when you change out the catback exhaust too!
