Go see a good exhaust fabricator & let us know! - It's a very tight fit & there is a bunch of restrictions in the factory downpipe.Quote:

Have a look. I really feel this should be universal to CAVD/CTHD engines. Part number T27-1AR. Designed for the Polo GTI CAVE engine but also fits Skoda Fabia 1.4 TSI and Ibiza Cupra 1.4 TSI. See here for Fabia product page: Downpipe and race cat for a Skoda Fabia II 1.4 TSI 2010+
The shape resembles pretty closely what I have seen on my Jetta.
I have seen references to SuperSprint and Velocity downpipes from older threads.
Also came across this thread showing how to remove the catalyst from the downpipe for our engine. It's a beetle but it looks exactly the same as the golf and Jetta in terms of component layout.

Interesting DIY! I wonder what the outcome is???Quote:

You will likely end up with a CEL (check engine light) on your dash if you remove the cat, but you will definiltely reduce some restriction in the exhaust and get the heat away from the engine/turbo more easily/quickly.
I checked ETKA recently and started to compare part numbers and diagrams for exhausts between the Polo, Jetta, Golf and Scirocco for the 118tsi/125tsi engine (CAVD/CAVE). The bad news is the Polo has a different exhaust pipe with catalyst compared to the others so downpipes for the polo, fabia and ibiza will not work.Quote:

So we basically have to look for systems designed for these models...Came across this for a scirocco on Milltek's website: Volkswagen Scirocco 1.4 TSI Milltek exhaust
It's listed as the 4th option. Turbo back with hi flow catalyst. The only problem is it's a complete exhaust and not just a downpipe so the price is high. Milltek system number SSXVW125.
Came across this site while searching the system number: SKN Tuning ChipTuning EcoTuning Turbo Kompressor MILLTEK Auspuff Fahrwerk Bremse CHIP & ECO
It lists all the components of the SSXVW125 with part numbers.
KIT consists of the following components:
MSVW310 Hi-Flow Sports Cat & Downpipe <----- Jackpot :cookie:
MSVW311 Flex Pipe
MSVW312 Front Connecting Pipe
MSAU283 Front Silencer
MSAU284 Rear Connecting Pipe
MSVW330 Rear Silencer
It also say's that it requires a Stage 2 Tune...
Time for a Tune is guess!!!
I'm guessing because of the change in catalyst. I'm stage 1.5 I guess so 2 has been on my mind a lot.
A friend of mine in Singapore is stage 3 on this engine....which is basically a new turbo and map plus new spark plugs and possibly forged pistons....
