If you look at this exhaust

The standard gti exhaust is only 2 pieces, any cat back system will replace only the rear half.

And blueflame do not call it a cat back just suitcase delete, I think you need to cut the standard exhaust just before the rear silencer to fit it.

Wow, thanks! :scared:  Glad I didn't buy it.  I think manufacturers should clearly state that mods are required when fitting such kit, or make it so it fits straight in.  I remember buying a front strut brace for an old mk2 gti, and you had to drill and bolt it to the front strut mounts/bulk head...... No chance! :stupid:

Back to the search for a nice exhaust then.............

I messaged Blueflame direct a few months back, just found the email.

Hi Matt,
Is your vehicle fitted with a std system or is the other part Blueflame?.
If the other part of the exhaust is std you need to buy a cat back system with the oem adaptor.(can give you a good price).
If blueflame no problem fitting.
Delivery 7/10 days
Best regards

Looks like there could be an adaptor to just use the Catback without having to hack anything.
