Let me know how you find it and the quality side if you dont mind mate. Seems a bargain if quality is good at that price. I know the pipe worx guys do good work but still £130 is a hell of a saving.

I was surprised how good the quality was when i got mine off ebay. Even took it to a friend who specialises in tig welding and he was impressed for the money how good it was. He also said for the saving if it ever cracked you could get it welded up and stregthened before it was installed it anything worried me.


No problem and as stage two doesnt require much, i too would have gone stage 2 staight away if i had know when i bought my car.
Stage 2+ 280.4 bhp ITG, Revo Stage 2+, decat, hpfp, THS intercooler, THS engine mounts, Pcv revamp, sportline springs, rs4 fuel valve, DS2500 pads and brembo discs, braided lines, ATE super blue brake fluid and more to come

Pipe is here - Initial inspection is that it's very good quality, when I come to fit it (weekend after next) I'll take some pictures and some vids and let you know for real.

But for the money, on initial inspection - looks like a bargin!

any more news on this? Mines booked in at local exhaust place. 3inch downpipe to a 2.5" decat, £150 fitted so not too bad. Will then be going R-Tech to get it mapped :)

Mines been fitted now, well all I can say is wow! I love it - the sound is incredible pops and bangs, engine feels smoother and free. Might be me but found it picks up quicker and shoots right through the rev range defo recommend it!!!!

If you look in my build thread on the latest update I've had a downpipe fabricated.

Awesome awesome product and would do you a cheap ass price if you give him a call.  :grin: :happy2:
