Title: Which exhaust for a mk2 1.8t???
Post by: richking on 14 August 2013, 19:00

As above i have a fully running mk2 1.8t that has a 2.5" qpeng downpipe but the 2" magnex exhaust is slightly too short and the wrong bore.

i had a look at getting a custom powerflow exhaust but i wasnt impressed with the Y shaped tailpipes and the only other 2.5" exhaust i can find is the jetex for a 16v but im not sure if this will also be a bit too short.

Just wondered what everyone else used?

I had the jetex 8v system on mine, fits the qpeng downpipe with the adapter supplied by qpeng.  Seems to fit and run great.

Depends where you are located? There's an outfit not a million miles away from me who do custom stainless stuff for very good prices.

Mine knocked a bit when lowered but I replaced the rear rubber mount with a smaller one which solved the problem
