SS RS2 Downpipe GROUPBUY Milltek or Otherwise?

[Jamo]

yEAH, a 3 INCH RS2 Avant Downpipe from whover is what im after, its gotta be Stainless Steel Though. If Milltek is not 3 inch, im gonna forget about Milltek!

I said this in the other thread

if you plan a bigger turbo then have it custom made to that. otherwise you will have issues.

also there is little need for a 3" pipe on anything smaller than and including rs2. a waste in the bang for buck process.

my advice to save 2 bills is get the turbo fitted and then match the system to it. logistically this can be an issue but its the best way.

i changed from old wagner tubular to new and had to extend the downpipe by 1 inch. lucky i could do it.with a spacer otherwise such a little change would haver been costly. same changes if not more apply when changing the turbo.

the only way you could do a batch and get them to fit would be to say its a downpipe for an avant on standard mounts to fit an rs2 turbo for example. there is a lot more to it than just a downpipe.

I've got an idea.
Take it to MRC, tell them you want 450 hp or there abouts, and give them the keys.
Then they call you up to tell you car is ready, you give them money, and you drive away with an RS2 with 450 hp, oh and a big smile.
Simple really.

You would have to then sell the car to pay the bill! LOL!

no way, hello backpressure, i would say 3,5" to eleminate backpressure...

Well m8, then i might have found the golden key, cause we couldent se a rise in the backpressure on my cossie @ 2,1bar on an gt-35 where we stopped the mapping.
This is on a full stainless 3" custom system and screamer pipe

when I collect my car...when ever that will be.....waiting for a part..... damn back order!!....I will go upto OJZ and get something sorted....I think it will be the best to go with the car I want the mani/exhaust...so they could take measurements and get a fell for how much stainless, time etc....

I will keep everyone posted...

Mike

p.s. What with missing the Trist28 exhaust, would the new owner be prepared to lend it to me/OJZ so we could get a price on getting a 'job lot' done...a nice easy template don't you think...and everyone else gets a nice system..at the right price of course..

[Flat on my back]

Jesh...

Who's paying all my petrol costs dropping bits here there and everywhere...

Powerflex on Thurs...now OJZ on...

I'm unemployed yu know...

No prod if you need it as a template.

[europeanme]

I take you are the lucky so and so that picked up the exhaust....nice one....

if you are ok lending it to be used as a template I can help out in the fuel front if your cool with that....I am still waiting for my car so I can have a chat with OJZ about costs etc....

[europeanme]

OJZ are on holiday next week so this will put back the Q&A about costings etc for a bit...one thing he mentioned is that he has found all audi's, even the same year model, seem to differ...so that is something to bear in mind...and that also tallys up with what has been mentioned on here....

so the GB might not be the best way to go....wait and see.....although the issue mentioned by Gazza has got me thinking...do I wait and upgrade the exhaust after a new turbo when it has been installed (at least a year away!!!..) or just custom fit the turbo to the exhaust...

[europeanme]

the only way you could do a batch and get them to fit would be to say its a downpipe for an avant on standard mounts to fit an rs2 turbo for example. there is a lot more to it than just a downpipe.

just read this posting again...and in laymens terms..get the exhaust/DP built up on a RS2...so it will fit a standard S2 avant and when the time comes to upgrade you should be ok to fit the larger turbo....
