Default Blobeye UK/JDM exhaust differences

Hi,

Anyone know how much different the OEM exhausts are on a JDM to UK Blobeye?

Trying to put an OEM system back on the JDM car I have, but unsure which if any of the UK parts will fit,

Thanks!

Well, the JDM Blob is twin scroll, is it not? So its manifolds, uppipe, and the turbo side of the downpipe are different.

So just the centre section and back box, then... Unless they themselves are different lengths...and/or different bore...and/or hangers/flanges in different places...?

Middle pipe is same as it is for the classic shape as I had found when buying the blitz on mine not sure on back box though

Thanks, yes i should have been more specific(!)

Manifold and associated turbo parts are different as its twin scroll as you say. the car has an aftermarket downpipe which can stay on, but I really want to change the centre pipe and the rear box.

I think i have found an OEM system but wondered which pipes (if any) were likely to fit from a UK version, as they are a lot more commonly available!

There’s 2 milltek systems up for sale on eBay for the jdm twinscroll and both are three inch

Its what I’d go for if I was in your situation
