http://www.etektuning.com/42-draft-vw-1-8t-ko4-3-value-line-downpipe/
Looks exactly the same as a lcr downpipe right?

not sure about the quality though an you might get 1 made cheaper as i got the downpipe made in sections to make it easier to remove an had twin rear boxes at the back as was only 500 :wink:

hmm, trouble is I need to get one made to order as I would want to gather all the bits to go to k04 instead of farting about fitting all the k04 kit then trailering it to a exhaust place getting one made up etc etc
-
mine already had the k04 and exhaust on it but i replaced the lot just waiting on my new manifold being built :wink:

haha niceee! ive just picked up a relentless for V3 for £150 only 4000 miles old ;) so just need to sort out a downpipe then get on to getting a decent enough intercooler setup lol

milltek exhaust system or the milltek downpipe? thing is I know someone selling a 3" milltek LCR downpipe but I really don't wanna commit to buying unless I know it fits 100% lol
