That last pic has got to be before running the engine for any considerable ammount of time right?  I swear I was hoping my copper nuts would remain as shiney and beautiful as that before drivin the thing for a few kms and heating them up nice and good.   ;D

Bump for a beauty of a dp.  I swear if this thing could go into a b4 I'd find a way of owning it.

Do you have to use a short shift kit with it ?

How close by does it come to the relay shaft (bushing part mechanism) before it turns underneath vehicle ?

I have a short shift kit but dont think its required. The only part I am using is the shorter lever on the trans.
If you want the downpipe but dont have one of those levers I can throw one in.

This won't work on a MKII Turbo? At all or without significant modification? Just wondering.

Fairly certain the mk2 is quite different.

the rack n pinion are in different spots on mk1 and mk2 cars. and the 2 downpipes are NOT interchangeable. mk2 pipe on a mk1 will hit the firewall and rack n pinion. mk1 pipe on a mk2 will hit the sub frame and rack n pinion.

mk2 has the rack mounted to the sub frame/k frame.. comes out of the engine and bends down, then back, then down some more, then back towards the shift box..

mk1 has the rack mounted directly to the firewall.. comes out of the engine, bends down, then back towards the shift box..

a mk2 pipe on an mk1, or vice versa, there will need to be significant modifications to how it is bent.

Mk1 = 1 bend
Mk2 = 3 bends
