What Length 8v Downpipes?

[kate205gti 4]

my downpipe was shortened to fit the last gti6 engine and manifold, now i have a standard 8v its too short! i've got 2 other downpipes i can get cut and welded on instead but they are both different lengths

 

could someone possibly measure the length of the downpipe to the knots for me please if you have one off the car?

 

 

 

thankyou

bottom one looks right, middle one looks like a cheap aftermarket one.

 

the one I have here is about 66 cm from the start of the 2" o/d section along the underside to the tip of the flange.

22" from top of flange to front of "knot"?

[welshpug 1,666]

naah, 26" I got.

 

i'd guess with the history of the car that top is gti6, middle is 1.9 Mi16 and bottom is 8 valve

I measured the inside length (top side)

[welshpug 1,666]

that sounds about right then

bugger theyre both too short then the longest one measures 19.5" the other one 18

 

 

 

need a new downpipe methinks!
