It will fit yes I have a golf decat pipe on mine, there excatly the same.

does it go straight though mot

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Nope cause you need a cat by law.

The mk4 1.8t golf pipes do fit tho.

 

[Danny_Boy69]

wicked, so dose it just bolt on and off? can you do it yourself after its been done by a profesional for upcoming MOT's? and i know this is a blonde question but as its not a branded decat pipe will it still increase the throttle a bit an increase the exhaust note?? thanks

It bolts straight to the turbo, weather or not it bolts to standard system depends on how big the standard system is I'd guess.

That one in the link is 3"? I think its recomended to have 2.5" with the little KO3 turbos?........thats what I've got anyway

 

[Danny_Boy69]

so that one wudnt fit my cupra then?

surely thats what you should begetting ?

i dont know what the standard exhaust system is if thats what you have, but my milltek is 2.5 so that should bolt straight on ?

The 2 in the ebay links are the same thing just ones in 2 parts and has bigger downpipe that tapers.

It says they both fit.

Yes the 1 piece one but I fitted it together with a full system so can't really comment on the pipe alone.

Its very well made and fits perfect.....looks like it should cost a hell of a lot more than £100

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SEAT-LEON-1-8-...item5189793c79 dont buy that one as the tapers are in the wrong place, i brought that one and had to send it back thats why i was inquiring about the vw one.

 

[Danny_Boy69]

ive order the VW one so ill let you know how i get on with it when it comes and if it makes any difference in sound and performance

Ive been looking at my old DP while the engine is out, and going to have a look what i can do with it, i wont be buying a DP i dont think as the budget wont stretch that far, so i may get the flap wheel out and polish what i can inside and clean up where the welds are on the flanges, then heatwrap it

Id reccomend heatwrapping before putting it back on as it can reduce under bonnet temps the oily heat will be coming off the exhaust manifold. Less heat the better.
