Ohh ok.

Btw the turbo flange is studded so you only need new nuts if you really want to change them

Not sure about the dp connector. But the internal diameter will be 3"

Thanks @v4rley (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=6697) sorry I should have mentioned I'm using the Quattro set up.

My bad @rich83 (http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=709)  Two studs are stripped from before and two have snapped, one whilst undoing it and the other whilst doing up. both front upper and lower ones so in a predicament atm and have to be changed along with the nuts :sad1:

stupidly watched a YouTube video and thought peace of P.  :slap:

Thanks
