Post subject: | ST205 Downpipe replacement |
Hi Guys, looking for recommendations on a downpipe. I see Aussie downpipes getting quoted as the best but i am struggling to find a supplier. I`ve found this one on Ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-MR2-TURBO-CELICA-ST205-DECAT-DE-CAT-DOWNPIPE-/310228623628?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item483b11210c It seems to be a popular seller but has anyone got one fitted or can point me in the right direction for a decent replacement thats pretty straight forward to fit, Thanks |

Berk down pipe is available from www.gtschris.com Recent reports suggest the pipe benefits from a bit of a tidy up internally with a die grinder or similar. I've been pleased with mine. |

You have trouble to find a seller that still offers Aussi products because Aussi went out of business some years ago. Cheap eBay downpipes aren´t the best. Some have not enough room in the wastegate area so the wastegate flap can´t open fully. After my Aussi downpipe cracked two times I replaced it with the one from Berk. Finish of the welds inside the pipe is real horrorbly and may benefit from grinding the welds down befor installing. I´ve decided against as I bought the coated version and didn´t want to destroy the coating. |

Looks like the clearance for the bolts / stud/nut is marginal on the underneath at the top and the top one at the bottom. Every downpipe I have ever seen has this, given that you have gone to the trouble of making a jig etc it would be nice to see this got right. |
