Title: Mk5 Golf 1.4 FSI downpipe
Post by: Nasir on May 05, 2011, 06:57:47 pm

Hi, my flexi pipe is blowing as it's split. Does anybody know if you have to buy the entire downpipe or can you just buy the flexi pipe? How much should I be looking to pay for a genuine VW part? Does anybody know who manufactures it for VW (e.g Bosch etc)?

Nobody knows if the downpipe comes in different sections?

I would presume it is like the other VAG down pipes and are all in one.  Might be worth going for an upgrade now :happy2:

That's what I thought mate, what's the point upgrading the downpipe on a 1.4  :signLOL:
