Cupra R back box onto my original cupra tdi exhaust?

[CooperC]

Hi all . I was planning to put a cupra R backbox on my cupra tdi but will it be a straight fit or will it need modifiying to make it? Can anyone help?

You'll need a reducer because the cupra r exhaust bore is larger than the tdi one and it wont fit into the hole in your bumper perfectly as the cupra r tip is slightly more off set.

ok m8 cheers... so do you rekon its worth doing or shall i just keep me standard 1 on?

 

[James_R]

The choice is entirely your own mate, i did it but it looked a little bit rubbish.

 

[CooperC]

no way how cum mate? does it not sit right in the hole or sumet?

 

[James_R]

Right out and at an upward angle, but in order to make it fit and not bang on the bumper it also had to be tilted.

ive got a R tip that im going to get welded onto the tdi backbox that should be just as easy if you take it to a Custom Exhuast place and should fit tidy in the hole.
Get yours cut off the backbox and do the same
