It would help if you stated if this was for an NA or Turbo.

My CAT was not clogged it was burnt out and stopped working, when I replaced it the shop installed a Catco model for a V6. It allowed me to pass smog tests and there was NO loss of performance and the price was like $60CA plus installation.

16-18 inches ??? I think you need a new muffler shop!

The original Porsche CAT only had a CAT section (brick) a few inches in length similar to the aftermarket replacements the rest of the housing was a large resonator. Ask me how I know.
