Re: downpipe for t3 t4 turbo

It depends on the manifold. The manifold and downpipe have to be a matched pair if you're buying them commercially.

Throw it out, get something decent. Those ebay specials are pure garbage, they crack at the welds and then you got big problems.

Re: downpipe for t3 t4 turbo

if you can weld, i'd say buy some flanges and mandrel bends on Summit and have at it!!...otherwise, i think you might be out of luck if Dezod doesn't have it....

Re: downpipe for t3 t4 turbo

like Boiler said its going to be down pipe manifold combo other wise it will be a one off down pipe. Im unaware of anyone other than Dezod that make a DP that fits their manifold. As a "off the shelf" type part that can be ordered

Re: downpipe for t3 t4 turbo

Dezod makes the best manifold, downpipe, & 2.5inch tube back. All can be had for around 800 if I'm not mistaken. Good fitment space is tight. I am having issues with the downpipe planting itself on my frame & rubbing severly. All brand new motor mounts, subframe aligned twice, new transmission, new clutch, new flywheel, new axles, 3 turbo assembly tear downs to adjust fitment......and downpipe still won't budge....I believe I am the only one to have any issues. Everyone else I am aware of has had very good luck with it.

One note I must add is the 2nd 02 sensor bung on the DP is absolutely useless. You can't put a sensor in there with it on the car and if you try installing the turbo assembly/dp with a sensor installed it is literally smashed against the block. I'm sure 5,000 of vibration would break the sensor. I had a bung welded on the supplied tube for my AFR gauge.

Downpipe & 2.5" Tube Link - $389
