goneskiian Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 No, I haven't searched on this exactly but I have been reading quite a few existing threads. So, if there is one that answers this question let me know. Is there a difference between a 5MT and a 5EAT OEM first section of DP? I know there's a difference in the part that contains the second cat, often called the midpipe, but what about the "shorty" first section past the turbo? Thanks!

goneskiian Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Was this just a really dumb question or did I come up with a stumper? OK, most likely a dumb question. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eqt2010 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 The shorty DP of 5MT and 5EAT should be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goneskiian Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 OK, does anybody else know for sure? I've got 2 opposing opinions (one on via pm). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKLGT Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 The shorty DP of 5MT and 5EAT should be the same. agreed. it is the other portion that is different. *edit* next time, I'll read the post! Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle yeah!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goneskiian Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 Huh? Hope, you have me confused. I think eqt2010 is saying that they're the same but you say they're different. How about this, where did you have to put a dent in the MR MT DP you tried to use before having the custom DP fabricated? Was it close to the turbo or close to where it mates with the CBE? Thanks, -Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eqt2010 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Shorty DPs are the same. If you take a look at the description of the aftermarket shorty DPs(e.g. Crucial, Flow, etc.), they fit for both 5EAT and 5MT. BTW, I just bought a 5MT OEM shorty DP for my 5EAT. I'll be screwed if they are different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goneskiian Posted July 6, 2008 Author Share Posted July 6, 2008 Sweet! Thanks for the confirmations. Hope that 5EAT one in the classifieds is still for sale. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, -Ian sorry, misread it. shorty DP will work for both cars, it's the second half that is different and the angle is wrong. However, I'm wondering if the 5EAT section will fit on an MT version because it has a wider angle. I don't know.... has anyone tried it? Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle yeah!!!
