Who's removed their diffuser?
« on: 04 February 2016, 17:28 »
Any advice, hidden clips etc for removing my standard rear diffuser on the GTD, I've bought the GTI diffuser and get a custom rear exhaust made nest Thursday.

Nice one. Where in Scotland is making your custom exhaust?

There is PDF instructions on this link. Looks like a lot of work.

I'd imagine this would be same process https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJsj-gDbtG0

No i googled exhaust fabricators and seen one in Falkirk, couldn't see one in Edinburgh which would have been even easier so i went for them. I was going to go an OEM gti exhaust but according to parts there was a few for the GTI and the bore size was different so i thought i'm going to have to modify it anyway so i'll get the rear section made. I had a full milltek dpf back on my MK6 and Phoned Superchips and they said it wouldn't affect performance whatsoever. Hence where i've ended up  :smiley:

To be fair i know the guys from Normand and Thomson they do pipe fabrication in the papermaking industry if i had a ramp they could make an exhaust it would be a piece o cake to thame buggers!!!

This place in East Kilbride also has a decent reputation and I'm sure he changes the diffuser as well.
