"This stainless and mandrel bent 3" racing downpipe replaces the restrictive catalytic converter located behind the turbo on longitudinally mounted 1.8T engines. The downpipe has a large 3" opening to increase turbo efficiency and is surprisingly silent when used with the stock exhaust system in place. Expect spool-up to arrive 200 to 400 rpm earlier, and at least 40ft/lb of torque to the wheels!!
Typical horsepower gains range from 10hp+ with a stock turbo, 15hp+ with a K04, and 30-40 horsepower when combined with a GT28RS or larger turbo. Includes provisions for factory oxygen sensors. --For OFF-ROAD use only!

Just get a set of non foulers part 42009, they will come up as spark plug non-foulers, but fit perfect. Thats what i used. grinded one down with a dremel (or drill) and stacked the 2 together. No cel yet!
I LOVE my test pipe. The sound is great and it added a noticeable little punch. Smell really isnt THAT bad. and its a hella lot cheaper than the labree. Id say go for it unless you have emissions testing.

Check allofcraigs.com
Thats where i always look first. Got my brand new balieys dv for $25 off, and my test pipe used for $85. Also looking at a gently used carbonio for only $200
