exhaust question
« on: 20 March 2010, 12:58 »
Hi all,

Im looking at buying a new exhaust for my 1.8 t, I have seen one i like the look of (piper stainless with twin 3"pipes), but this is only available on the 2" system and not the 2.5" system! what i want to know is will this make much difference to performance and also what size of bore is used on miltek systems???
I want to eventually get a large bore(3") down pipe and sports cat fitted and dont want to have to buy another system when that time comes!!!

Cheers

jim :smiley:

standard sytem is 2.25" , you could get a reducer , ive just had one off ebay for £7 , i doubt performance will be affected much mate, its only the decat / sprts cat that actually gona make any difference. iv got a brand new down pipe in the for sale section :wink: thats 2.5"
