Bad downpipe
 
My brother has a 01 GTI 1.8t. I need a good downpipe for it,.I got him one off ebay from sprinterpower but the p.o.s. cracked twice.Also does anyone know how to get the check engine light off because of the pipe. Someone told me about a part that goes into the hole to make theo2 sensor receed. Does anyone knowwhat I am talking about. Thanks

not sure about teh cracking dowpipe, thats no bueno. but i have seen what you are talkin about with teh CEL. i believe you can put a washer on before the sensor and itll back it out enough, not sure how thick though.
just read that somewhere, if you find a good downpipe and all let me know cause im sort of in the market for one.

good luck

unfortunatly the dp that are of goos quality are more pricey....but in the long run it will save you money..so you dont have to keep fixing it.
