After investigating and curing (temporarily) my exhaust blow today I found that the offside downpipe is holed just where it joins the system proper, it has been cobbled up by somebody in the past with a sleeve and clamp. I have had to do the same again today with some sealing paste.
I was wondering if anyone out there who has fitted a fancy system and downpipes has an offside downpipe for S3 that they would be willing to part with or even one that is holed/cracked/rotten anywhere other than the last 7 or 8 inches so I could cut and weld the 2 to make a good one.
If anyone has anything that could help me and could take to Silverstone on Sunday it would be very much appreciated, please let me know.
Many thanks in advance,
Carl.

p.s. If its a good one I dont expect to get it for nowt :).

Thanx Paul, I have no idea how the cat and no-cat pipes differ in size and shape either but thanks for replying.
