Right just a quick query about exhaust.. what should i use ?? stainless steel jobby ?? standard manifold ?? Can i use standard downpipe from the mk3 or will i need the mk2 one ?? will whatever mk2/3 downpipe bolt straight to my mk2 stainless exhaust ??

[lemski]

What diametre is ur exhaust?

[tech1889]

Good point I think it's standard mid section and stainless back section but would have to check

2inch 16 is 2 1/4. My mate used mk2 mani  on his abf

[tech1889]

i think i will try and go stainless manifold and downpipe and run a custom 2.5" exhaust after that maybe free up some ponies lol

[lemski]

Ahhh, av got 2 1/4 all the way through mine, but it was made to keep back pressure the same, and av got a 4-1 mani

[tech1889]

Where you get 4-1 mani from mate ??

What you recon then 2 1/4 or 2 1/2 ??

Cam with my doner but it is a magnatec mani and exhaust, get them from ebay though. Well my mates abf'd mk2 had 2 1/2 and my kr has 2 1/4 and my kr was better than his abf, were running about the same bhp but I just seemed to have a little more poke
