Downpipe?

If you're looking for a stock replacement I've got one.

 

If you're looking to build the car up a bit, the TEP pipe is good, but I went with Ronnie's divorced downpipe for my rebuild. He's a member here btw.

This is a great part, it's the MK1 downpipe that comes with their full SS systems. Mine doesn't rub on anything. I'd avoid the TEP one because it doesn't have a flex section in it, I had one and after a while it will crack around the flange from all the movement of the engine/exhaust. The MK1 DP also fits better on the back of the turbo because of the way the inlet is tapered.

 

If you're going to stay with a stock downpipe, I would gut the catalytic bricks out of the downpipe as they're most likely clogged (It's really called a pre-cat) and you'll pick up a much faster turbo spool-up.

 

Just my .02.
