If you can fit 5" on the MK4 shouldn't be any problem getting it to fit on the sc if the install knows what he is doing. Will post some pics once i get it done.

Just dump the downpipe out the side of the front fender and be done with it LOL. Then there is no pesky exhaust to scrape on stuff or prevent flow :P

it might be lol but i just wanted to do it once and don't have to do it again, i am very tired of working on car . i used to love turning wrenches but not anymore.
The outlet on the Turbo is 4", i have a local truck store i am getting the 5" piping from them and have ISP racing make the exhaust.
it will sounds mean, on my last setup i didn't have an exhaust it was just DP and the Fender sounded sick terrorised my neighborgood lol.

Yeap, all are swapped...cheaper that way; since it's harder for the seller to recover all his money, which is a ++savings for me.

Did a little work on the car yesterday for couple of hours maybe 2 hours ..
Removed the the rear Diff and found out the axles are shot, and i have gear oil under the whole car from my previous R154.
So will wash the whole under carriage in the next coming days.

Removed the intake manifold, it was pita haha but i got it done.

Engine still in the car for now, but will be coming out after i test fit the FFIM and some other stuff.
The harness will come off the engine, i will be redoing the wiring make the harness as small as possible.

Intake manifold parts have been dropped off at the shop should be ready in 2 weeks.

Took a couple of pictures yesterday, waiting for AL to load them up.
