Hey i am in the final stages of a gti coversion and am having some issues with my exhaust system. Basically the issue i'm having is that the sierra extractors i had fitted to the G16A that was fitted beforehand, do not seem to be able to clear the passenger side engine mount. I have welded on the GTI flange however the orientation of the secondary collector is just in the way. Are some different brands routed differently ? i have Lukey's fitted ?
Thanks in advance
Jonny
P.S please do not tell me i should have put fuel injection on my G16A

I think most people use sierra extractors as a starting point. They may be shaped differently to the G16a extractors.

G16 extractors are taller the g13. This means that you are trying to fit the longer pipes to a shorter motor and that's why it's hitting the mount.

I used g13b extractors and welded them to the gti flange plate was perfect fit

the passenger engine mount on a g16b is further froward so the extractors will / may sit further froward as well which will foul on a g13b

Ok thanks for the help guys. So im gonna buy a new set of sierra extractors and start again. however my gti flange is pretty beat up after having to cut and re weld the primaries on, so does anyone know where i can get another GTI exhasut flange ? the place where i got mine has closed down
cheers

i had a similar problem today, do you have access to an oxy because i think all that needs to happen is both sections heated and bent a bit?

Any exhaust shop can get them. I just bought 1 for a turbo manifold I made and it was $37 and they got it within 2 days.
