Bore of 16V KR Exhaust

[Martin_B 10]

As per above,

 

Looking to make a straight-through centre pipe for my Corrado - unsure of the bore size.

 

Can anyone assist?

Hello there,

 

I think the 1.8 16v (KR)

and the 2.0 16v (9A)

have the same standard size / bore exhaust.

The only real difference between them is the 1.8 has the hook type mounts on the centre silencer,

and the 2.0 has a 6" long straight bar which the rubber mounts slide over.

 

I think it's 2-1/4" OD (54mm)

 

The ID is roughly about (52mm)

 

Then where the pipe flairs out slightly where it has to slide over the end of the catalytic converter,

this is about 58mm to 59mm OD

 

And the end of the catalytic converter is about 55mm OD

 

pipe is about 1.5mm thick.

 

 

Hope this helps.

 

Si

Don't, there's no benefit other than annoying your neighbours :)
