What did you and your MK2 do today?

Is that the downpipe decat they sell on eBay for 150?? Been looking into them make much difference??

 

[Mikey-D]

£150? That for a Cupra?

What's the quality like? Any link to it?

 

[Mikey-D]

Having looked on eBay there appears to be 2 different decat downpipes for the Cupra at £150. Wonder if they are any good...

It is turborevs downpipe on ebay. 150 £
Works well. If flex part cracks I weld new one. Easy to install.
Heat wrap is magmawrap from thermalvelocity.

Cheers Mandu. Have you seen any gains? Did yours crack? Did it come with gaskets needed to fit?

I really recommend that downpipe. I have not yet used car on dyno, but I can say it make really different. it had been installed only a month, no cracks, so far so good. Only downside is "check engine light" because decat. But it leaves after re-programmed.
I bought new gasket but it came after the installation. My car has 74tkm on the clock and gasket was good condition, because it was made ​​of stainless steel. So no need to new gasket.

That's great buddy thanks. If the quality is decent enough I think I'll buy this

My K1 has 40k so gasket should be fine. Will it fit straight onto the original OEM exhaust?

Well, I have simmons cat-back, but it will be straight fit to OEM cat-back (2,5" reduce)

Mines out for a full service & MOT.

But got a full pack exeo 13 plate as courtesy car

 

[Mikey-D]

Cheers Mandu. I'll get it ordered.

Another question, how much of the magmashield (gold CF effect tape) did you need to wrap the p-flo intake pipe? I think it's 40mm wide and either 5m or 10m in length?

Cheers and sorry for the 101 Q's!

Drove 200miles with 3 people and a buggy in the boot on just £20. Was very happy with that.

It's great on DSG isn't it?
Constant pull. None of that lurching forward business

Except for that my D mode is now as good as useless under 50mph. Oh well boohoo

I bought this on thermalvelocity 1x Magmashield Tape 40mm x 10m (MST/040/10)
Still left little bit. Takes about 6meters.

Sorry about dirty engine bay.

Heatwrap to downpipe first section (before v-band) takes about 4-5meters.

 

[Mikey-D]

Thanks mate. That looks better than what is imagined! Looks freaking awesome!

I'm guessing you took the pipe off to do that?

 

[Mandu]

Yes, I took my p-flo off to wrap.

 

[Mikey-D]

Cheers man. Top job there!
