Title: 8v Downpipe
Post by: Tornado on 29 June 2006, 20:54: Hi there
I need a stanard 8v digi downpipe. However the local VW stealership wants Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£169 bucks!!
Does anyone know if this is correct or whether or not GSF one is any good

I know that I don't need a brand new one but i have had some very mixed results buying 2nd hand stuff. I have heard thta vw ones last for years and wondered if anyone had personal experiences of the alternative choices :smiley:
