Title: Downpipe Post by: gengis on September 11, 2013, 10:32:16 PM I seem to be getting a exhaust leak from the twin flexible part of the downpipe, hard to detect but noticeable when accelerating and sounds more like an induction roar.
I see that the earlier cars have no flexible...have there been an issue with cracking exhaust/manifold, and hence the later fitment of a flexible? Does anyone have a downpipe for a 2000ie Coupe?

I have a stainless system from the downpipe, but I may have to replace the downpipe with stainless.
