Down pipe help
I have a 2000 Audi TT Quattro. Engine code ATC 8N1
I am trying to upgrade the down pipe with a larger aftermarket pipe that also deletes the split to 2 cats in the exhaust. Every option ive ordered online that says it will fit my year make and model does not seem to look anything like the old. I really need some help and I cant seem to find a down pipe that fits.

180 dp has 4 bolts and is straightish, 225 is 3 bolts and has a big turndown...ATC is 180...I have an 01 180 Quattro with ATC motor, whoever I bought the car from had some type of repair done on the dp, either way it's tiny stock garbage and the split makes no sense. I will tell you it's a pain to get out of there, you need a lift preferably or plan on jacking the car as high as you can get it. I just bought this cheap ebay ish, quality is actually pretty good, I was surprised. Go ahead and order this kit too because chances are youll want the studs on hand just in case one break or backs out, you don't want to wait on parts to finish and the picture shown has regular nuts but the ones i received were in fact the recommended copper coated ones specified for this job
ebay pipe
gaskets nuts and studs
just fyi it's going to be SIGNIFICANTLY louder after the install...also buy some good penetrating oil (i like pb blaster) and user liberally on the nuts and o2 sensors, one of the sensors i'd spray, leave and come back, tap with a hammer, spray some more...it came out tho. I also bought header heat wrap and took the opportunity to do both sections, wear gloves if you do the wrap, its like fiberglass but worse
