cant find a copy of the flange, but ill go take a pic of mine.

here is the gasket to suit the TFSI and TSI turbo. note the two elongated holes. all the MK6(TSI) ones are like this:



EDIT:

OK here is my flange. it was laser cut, and then the gasket drawn on it. hopefully I don't need to trim it down, as something that size will have less of a change of warping. doesn't look spectacular, but it will work.

this is what i'm getting installed on thursday. its designed for the mk5 jetta GLi.
u'll notice at the bottom of the pic the adapter/gasket thingy.....

the gasket is the same for the TSI and TFSI

but that down pipe (just by looking at it) doesn't look like it will fit. none of the MK5 ones appear to fit.

that said, im sure it could easily be modded to fit

it will also go so much better after!!

So the Jetta Exhaust will fit an octy?

That's what I've been told by the folks at apr.
Same length, piping & route.
I'll know for sure when it gets installed trow.

The APR one gets trimmed to size during the fitting process unless they are pre-trimming them before shipment.
It also has an adjustable hanger so suits the slightly different path it needs to take.

as previously stated - same length, piping & route with a mk5 jetta gli.
had mine installed today. there was no need to trim or adjust

I didnt see the post above.
If you fit the entire turbo back then its a direct bolt on. If you just go the DP route then it needs to be trimmed to length to mate up with the stock Octavia cat back

Was looking in to the above one as well, shot off a proper postage quote. Although this one doesn't look like it has the lower o2 sensor, it does state there are two in the ad.

Stupid questions:
-I cant see the higher one from having a quick look under and up with a jack. Are there two sensors?
-If theres only 1 sensor, would the DP come with a fitment to block the other hole?
-The ones we've been looking at are 'de-cat'. Does the VRS come with one cat or two. I thought the two rear muffler boxes are just mufflers..

2 sensors - yes.
vrs stock downpipe comes with 2 cats. the 1st one between primary 02 sensor port and the flex coupler, and the 2nd, as shown in the pic below.

How come the APR website has the same part number for the Occy as the Golf GTI if according to the above the GTI is too long for the Occy? APR also confirmed the Golf GTI MK6 downpipe will fit the Occy MK2. I'm confused by the above stating things need to be trimmed for the Occy?

APR probably assume you are using the APR catback from the Jetta.

not sure, maybe its to do with the position of where the apr downpipe ends up with respect to the stock octavia catback.
the golf catback is entirely different design to the octavia catback.

when i got the full apr exhaust, for a jetta, there was no cutting/trimming required.

I'm using the APR hiflow CAT and downpipe from the Jetta - into the stock Octavia CAT back exhaust system
