hello guys, i am in need of a exhaust up pipe as mine is cracked, its for a 97 awd 2000 turbo, pref one without the flexible piece, standard one aswell, any help on finding one would be great, thanks

 

Got a standard one off a classic here. Whereabouts are you in the country?

 

hi mate i have a brrandnew uprated up pipe which i got with my manifold but allready had one on mine, am selling for £50 if ur intrested, plain stainless steel pipe, no flexi or cat.

 

hello guys, thanks for your responce, myles has it got the flexi peice in it, ?? and im in northants mate

Aamar ive been told i shouldnt have an uprated pipe as it wouldnt do the boost no favours, if that sounds like a load of ****e im sorry i must of heard it wrong.

 

Not sure, its the classic one with the heatshield round it. I bought it to fit to mine, but it just sat in the garage in the end. Im in Oxon, 20 miles west of Oxford, OX18.

 

ok mate, but i will need to know if it has the flexi piece under the heat shield as this is the piece that keeps failing and as you probably know its a pain to get at, plus you are 60 miles away so we would have to be sure before i have a look at it, cheers.

 

Ill shove a pencil down the pipe, if I feel the ridges itll have the flexi pipe, if it is smooth, it wont. Ill check in the morning.

 

it will feel smooth as its two pieces pushed together over a sleeve, i found that out today as i tried to get the exhaust welded, which didn't go well ha ha, it just fell to bits

 

How do I find out, apart from grinding off the heatshield?

 

i don't think you can mate which i wont ask you to do as if has got the flexi piece in it you would have broken it for nothing.
