Downpipes, anyone interested?

I was thinking of making a few downpipes for guys on this site. I can get stainless or mild steel and have had success making a few for mk2s. 2.5inch and 3 inch would be possible for the k24, T3, and K14. What do you think? I am not saying they would be Passenger Performance grade but I have ran a stainless 2.5inch dp on my mk2 1.9 for about 2 years and it has been great. V-band clamps are an option, also. Let me know what you think.

Good to see people are getting things done for themselves. I wouldn't pay 350 dollars for any downpipe.

I would definitely be interested in this. Was not loving the idea of dropping the cash for the TT downpipe. How much would you be wanting for these. I have the 1.6 ecodiesel. 91 Jetta.

I would be interested in one for my 85 td jetta if the price is right. Just need to catch up on some time and wanted to redo the exhaust and the intake since people say it will help the car breathe better and I plan on keeping it a long time

I have a 2.5inch stainless with v-band ready that I have been using for a while if anyone needs a used one. I will be making an all stainless 3in version with v-band as well. PM me about it if you want one and we can negotiate. I really like seeing so many diesel guys taking action and fabricating their own stuff. Let's get some pics in here of your custom dps!!!!

PM me with interest, I only have a mk2 to mock up dps on but I am sure they would probably fit mk3-mk1 anyway with a little work.
