Yeah?  I assumed it'd be a big job for some reason.  Awesome is about £699 for the downpipe and exhaust, working off the assumption their website prices don't include VAT.

ouch thats expensive - joys of owning a petrol eh  :tongue:

I always thought the 1.8T and 1.9 TDI aftermarket exhausts were the same part numbers?

Thay are except the downpipe. The TDI downpipe is about half the price of the petrol  :smiley:

Ah yes that would indeed make sense.

Approx £140 for the TDI downpipe  :smug:

When I'm a very old man the way things are going.  I've got my new front Eibach ARB on the way once Eibach get their act together and deliver me the correct one  :rolleyes:  Then I need to buy new control arms, and get Awesome to fit it all.  Any help on sourcing some cheap control arms would be appreciated.  THEN I need to get new tyres, that's about £400.  At some point springs are going to come into play, just some Eibachs for a 40mm drop more than likely.  Then the next big thing will be the downpipe and exhaust, followed by a k03s turbo when I have the pennies.  Shall get a pipercross panel filter when I get paid probably.

I also want a few none performance parts, like a proper rear spoiler, US spec rear lights,  etc etc.
