Scirocco Central

Hey guys..

it's been a great forum and I have been reading passionately for a while. But I feel that we are lagging a bit behind compared to forums like VWVortex on the technical side.

Obviously, it's also because our cars are new and we're not familiar with them enough just yet. I look forward to much more technical discussions in the near future.

Now, here's my question: does anyone know if the TSI firewall on the scirocco is the same as the MkV GTI? I ask this because I am wondering of the MkV GTI TSI downpipe with a CBFA engine code will fit our cars. I'd like to buy it from a US store and have it shipped to Switzerland.

I am aware Milltek makes these but I just wanted to have more options... thanks guys!

According to a few sources the Audi S3 is the nearest match albeit I think the MK 5 would fit but I havent had that confirmed, Our resident modder Ryan might be able to shed more light as I believe he had a Mk5 Cat back installed at some point

what else would you like to know?

im not 100% but im quite sure the mk5 golf one will be the same, i custom made my de-cat pipe, as i didnt want the sports cat, im guessing the s3 one wouldnt be as good, as they have two sensors in the s3, and only one in the scirocco, but you could allways put a bolt in the hole i suppose

hmm... thanks peoples!

it sounds as though it's not worth risking having to modify a brand new downpipe and just go for a Milltek or alternative made for scirocco.

I just moved to Switzerland so I don't know the shops well around me. So a well fitting downpipe (and exhaust) made for scirocco might be the best bet.

Thanks again!

personally I'm going to get a custom downpipe and De-Cat made which will fit to my milltek cat-back, I'll probaly use somebody like hayward and scott
