will 16v powerflow exhaust fit an 8v
« on: 10 September 2008, 09:53 »
Hi

A mate of mine is selling his custom built SS powerflow exhaust, its off a 16v and was wondering if it would fit straight on to an 8 valve?

Cheers

yes...  Some of the later models had a bigger bore but even if it does it can bit fitted with an adapter.  im pretty sure the cat flange is the same or might need minor adjustments.

As all ready said... it will fit but may need an adaptor at the back of the cat...luckily the mk3 all ready uses a small extension pipe here so swapping that should sove any fitment issue

As mentioned, will fit fine but you might need a reducer to fit onto the cat. :smiley:
