  • German Ebay Downpipe with 200 cell cat for MKV GTI

    Has anyone tried these German DP's? Im asking because the cheapest one I can source in Aus is the SPM DP from Dub Addiction for around $800. For tomorrow only, ebay are having 15% everything and after discount and offer, this comes to about $500 delivered.

    Google translate tells me:

    200 Zeller Rennkat (200 cell cat?).

    Suitable for Audi A3, Golf 5, Golf 6 2.0 TFSI.


    This downpipe brings a performance increase of up to 15HP, and a hammer sound.


    Brand new!

    Product details


    - Audi / VW 2.0 TFSI Downpipe with 200 Zeller Rennkat
    - Suitable only for models with front wheel drive
    - Outer diameter 3 "76,1mm
    - Material V2A (not sure what type of steel this is)
    - Better Ansprechsverhalten
    - Torque & performance improvement
    - Brand New
    - Without certificate


    Scope of delivery
    Audi / VW 2.0 FSI Downpipe
    V belt clip & gasket

    What are your opinions guys? Spend the extra $300 on something tried and true or DP's are pretty much same all round?

        You don't actually say what vehicle you have either.

        If you have the older belt cam TFSI it will fit but you can do it a bit cheaper if you buy a catless DP & a 200cell cat locally & get an exhaust place to weld them together.

        TSI will need modification to the flange (not hard).

        I'm in the same boat myself & keep thinking the SPM unit for $780 is a better bet overall

        There's this one too which will work out at $580 after 15% off but I really don't think it fits TSI.

        Is the 15% off still going?

          Yea the 15% off ends tonight. I might give it a miss, not gonna risk it if it doesn't fit. I'm just going to spend the extra dough on a DSG tune instead.

          Was going to get a stage 1 tune + dp, but Viezu said that a dsg tune is more effective/bang for buck.

            just letting you know these are mass-produced in china. I have one that I paid about $220 inc delivery to Australia.

            search around for better deals. can get them with and without catalytic converters.

            mostly they support TFSI motors, I had mine modded with a new turbo flange and shortened for my Octavia.
