WTB : GESI/HJS Downpipe for TSI/GTI

Title says it all.

Looking for a downpipe with a GESI or HJS cat so I don't have to worry about emissions & CEL. Still going to tune, but for inspection, don't want to mess with putting stock back on.

Have a TSI, but GTI will fit. Needs to fit stock catback, not aftermarket.

I think the only ones are AWE, BullX, MAP, Neuspeed.

If a GTI DP will fit I believe there were one or two Neuspeeds DPs floating around down here.

I have searched here, vortex, ebay and Facebook. Haven't seen one. Can you link.

Jake Baun makes his DPs with GESI cats also.

That's one option, but I know he has a back log. And it's around $1100. Was hoping for a used one that'll be cheaper.

Milltek also uses HJS cats in their cast DP's. EC certified is Euro 6 (like AWE with their limited no CEL guarantee), non-EC is a Euro3 I believe...

Wow. If I was even somewhat handy, that would be an option. That being said, learned a lot from that thread.
Will have to ask APR if their IS38 tune disables the rear O2 sensor.

Milltek is another option I'll have to search for.

I have the Milltek HJS catted downpipe with the ceramic coating option direct from Milltek on my R. I can confirm that no CEL lights up. Now I did get a EPC light a couple times. But that was for overboost (when I was still on the stock tune). I'm stage 2 Eurodyne now. I also passed MD emissions test several months ago.

Hopefully this helps with your search.

Thanks for the suggestions. Ended up getting a great deal on a Bull-X ceramic coated downpipe with an HJS cat. Hopefully it works as well as the Milltek one. I'll post results when I get it on in a couple of weeks. Going with the Non testpipe IS38 tune, so if it doesn't work as intended, I'll get a CEL.

Bull-X is a great brand too!
