Cool congrats! Are the going to make you swap the stock header and cats back in as well so it runs the correct AFR and won't need a tune? They probably didn't mention that to you.

Sorry to hear you have a sour taste from the car. I hope you find a car you enjoy even more.

Oh the car was great, it didn't give me any issues up until a couple months ago. After just shy of 4 years of ownership I wouldn't regret ever buying this car. Maybe in the future I'll end up picking up another one.
