Is there a difference? Looking at the Milltek size, both are the same, infact, both systems look the same!
3" DP & Cat, Mating at 2.75" Cat Back...
Confused...I was under the impressing they were different!
-
I too would like to know the difference
-
The gti downpipe is 2.75'' the ed30/s3 version is 3''...
The cat back for gti and ed30 are both 2.75
Its only the downpipe diameter thats different
-
iirc the ed30 tail pipes are also of larger diameter than the standard gti ones.

Think by 5mm

And they are a different design.. look much nicer than the normal ones :happy2:

Is this for definate?! I'm looking into buying a second hand DP, just wondering which will fit...
From looking at the Milltek website I get the following for Ed30 :-
1. LARGE BORE DOWNPIPE AND HI-FLOW SPORTS CAT
Consists of: Tailpipe Style
Downpipe and Hi-Flow Sports Cat
Connecting Pipe
Pipe Diameter: 3.00" (76.20mm)
AND for GTi :-
1. HI-FLOW SPORTS CAT AND DOWNPIPE
Consists of: Tailpipe Style
Downpipe and Hi-Flow Sports Cat
Connecting Pipe
Pipe Diameter: 3.00" (76.20mm)
SO Confusing me a little...
Also, how does a 3" DP fit to a 2.75" Cat-Back?!
Would it have to be Milltek specific?! So I wouldnt be able to make use of a Blueflame 3" for arguments sake?!

There is a reducing pipe.

The 3" or 2.75" DP will fit. :happy2:
