Piggie Pipes

[Thepooj]

Does anyone know someone in town (other than Jordan, who apparently thinks that school is more important than my car ) who can install piggie pipes?

Thanks,
Jeremy

TIP or manual?

2001.0 Tip. I was thinking of getting the piggie pipes from VAST. At the end of the day I'm looking at piggie pipes and an AWE Twin2 exhaust. I would just rather pay someone to do it. George doesn't seem overly keen on doing it...I'm supposed to meet with him tomorrow.

Re: Piggie Pipes

That may be due to the TIP issue, the are a real PITA to do while the engine is in place on a TIP. I would lend a hand, but I tried to pull my downpipes on my 01 A6 TIP, and got nowhere until I pulled the engine. Good luck

Re: Piggie Pipes

kyle has done his too but with the engine pulled.. tough choice

awe twin2 is a nice choice tho!

Re: Piggie Pipes

Maybe I should just go with AWE dp's, Tunerworks said they could do the labour in 4 hours...of course they want a million dollars for the DP's...sigh.

Re: Piggie Pipes

OK , .I THOUGHT AWE DOWN PIPES OR MANY OTHERS COULD BE COMPLETED WHILE IN THE CAR ? WOULD DOWN PIPES BE BENNIFICIAL WITH A STOCK EXHAUST AS THERE WOULD STILL BE SOME GAIN ,CORRECT.WHATS THE MAJOR DIFFERANCE WITH TIPTRONIC INSTALL VS 6SPD.

Re: Piggie Pipes

downpipes will yield a better gain than a catback, will tunerworks do piggies if you supply them? The major difference is that the tip tranny is big and fat and you have even less room.

Re: Piggie Pipes

Tip DP R&R is next to impossible with the engine in the car...which is why George wouldn't be too keen on doing it. If you really want to do it without taking the engine out, you would have to drop the entire subframe a bit to get a little more clearance...

Oh, and I'd like to see Tunerworks do it in 4 hours (unless they are doing the subframe method).
