Title: Will it fit?
Post by: gti_tom on 23 July 2010, 08:45

A guy at work used to have a Mk3 2.0 Gti and still has the backbox off of it. Will it fit on my mk3 1.8 driver?

Is the 2.0 Gti a 16v?

Well I believe it will matter as the 8v is a smaller bore to the 16v but not sure if that applies to the Driver.

I think the exhaust bore is smaller on the driver so it might need a reducer on it.........you can get them off the bay for a few quid  :wink:

1.8 and 2.0 uses the same diameter pipe
vr6 & 16v uses larger
