as woody said, are ye sure there isn't a crack in the downpipe?... mine was sporting what looks like a fairly new system but still cracked and broke at the clamp, i repaired it with a weld and jacked it up tight... make sure you have a fixing bracket at the bottom of the downpipe because not having 1 is often a source of exhaust blowing...

tbh paste is useless dude
