So will this fit then??

http://www.toyosports.co.uk/audi-a3-96-03-20v-18t-turbo-exhaust-down-pipe-decat-8900-1338-p.asp

But I do have a Miltek catback, so I bet it don't!!

Thanks

Yeah that will fit your car if its a cupra (not cupra R) cupra r are flanged (nut and bolt) where the cat meets the mid pipe, normal 180 cupras are slip on where the cat meets the midpipe.

So if yours is a cupra itl fit, if its a cupra r, it wont :) my cobra is a 3" inch system cat back, and it slid perfectly inside that :)

Polished mine, and took the 'mrs' to see a 03 LCR in black at our local 'stealers' which was described in the ad as being a 'immaculate local example' 64k, fsh, etc, but we were gutted to see it had a thick layer of dust all over it and that every panel was either chipped/scraped, bumpers had stress marks, all 4 wheels were badly kerbed, and the splitter was scuffed and badly fitted and to top it all when i mentioned all this to the sales guy his response was "what do you expect, its 9yr old after all" WELL DONT F***ING ADVERTISE IT AS BEING IMMACULATE!!![:@]

Haha yeh thats the one, looks 'ok' on the pics on the ad, I dont see why someone would bother with making sure their car has fsh etc if they are just gonna neglect the condition of the bodywork :wtf:would of looked good sat outside nose to nose with mine too (his an hers cupras lol)
 
well yesterday i done some spirited driving around cardiff and other areas giving it a good run after the exhaust change. could not resist a few tunnel runs lol it sounds awesome for only a stock 180 cupra. morning start up at 6.30am on fast idle is a bit loud but its ok when its warm so i just start and quickly move lol.

hopefully do my coilovers today and the tip. finally got my map sensor flange to weld on to my intercooler pipe so hopefully have front mount plummbed in by weekend.

i will dig out my camera and take a few pics.

just browsing for a set of alloys atm. im keeping with the black ,yellow and blur colour scheme. yellow car , blue engine bay, black trimmings. so im looking at a set of volk rays et37
wheels in black with the blue volk rays stickers.
