Will SS exhaust fit DJ?

Post by jimrat »

Hi

Quick question - I need a complete exhaust for a 2.1 DJ engine. Been offered an exhaust from a 2.1 SS engine - will it fit? Have tried searching the forum, google, parts suppliers, etc but any search with SS exhaust = stainless steel.. :?

Cheers

The SS 2.1 is perhaps closest to an 2.1 MV, both using Digiphant injection 7 both originally fitted with a CAT but physically (as far as the exhaust goes) all are interchangeable as long as non synro.
You may need a Lambda Boss mount 'pre-silencer' to retain the oxygen sensor detection.


Some stainless steel exhausts limit access space to the oil filter and those fitted with an oil cooler (like yours) may require the use of a shorter oil filter ...VW Polo is normally favoured.
