Leon Cupra R Downpipe

[kylestyle09]

hi all

Bascically my Leon Cupra R needs a new downpipe (flexipipe).
I was wondering if I bought this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SEAT-LEON...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5d2f69aa2c

Would it be a cheaper option to get the decat? Would it just replace the current Flexipipe(downpipe)?

Please someone let me know asap, as needing this new part is driving me crazy, and the performance of the car is really affected and I need to get it fixed now so the car will sell.
Many thanks

That's not the R downpipe.

For reference the K04 as 3 studs and fitment is different same as this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Seat-Leon..._CarParts_SM&hash=item3367dc795c#ht_858wt_905

Shite. This is going to cost me a fortune then.

Where can I find a used downpipe for a LCR?

 

[LEE69]

ebay? search for people breaking them.

 

[kylestyle09]

There's only two on eBay.
Do you know anywhere I can get a cheaper de cat down pipe which should also solve the problem?

LCR downpipe = expensive

If you want cheaper then the only way is to source a secondhand one.

Does it affect performance alot if its the downpipe thats gone?
Infact,what actually goes on one? I'm being told I need one, but when happens to them do you know?

Bumping a very old post, just checking that the Audi TT/S3 downpipe is the same as the LCR? Both look the same?
Cheers
