Who makes a good Mk1 TD downpipe for a fair price?
« on: January 11, 2010, 11:26:21 am »
Got them from Techtonics and they are very good but pricey. Does anyone know of a less expensive alternative?
Look, if corn and kudzu fall in love and have a baby in a lab under the supervision of scientists working in my employ, WHO AM I TO STOP THAT other than the CEO responsible for stopping it???

I think dealer price was 300.00 for a 2.5 diameter and AAZ / KO3
Mk1 caddy

My 2'5 complete exhaust DP to tailpipe 315.00 ( Flowmaster muffler )

I think that is fair compared to the amount I paid  6575.00 for My 997TT Tubi race exhaust
Plus headers and ECU flash
