Yet more top quality content, you really do put better known youtubers to shame. Can you fit a 3 inch downpipe, pipewerx for example and still keep the original cat, if so is it still a worthwhile mod? ATB mate, love the content.
I also meant to ask, do you have any concerns about your con rods? Any plans on changing them? From what I've read and spoke to various people 300bhp and similar torque numbers are the limit on standard rods really and have been known to fail lower than that. Its playing on my mind slightly and I doubt my TT will surpass 280bhp with what I intend to do to it.
Thanks buddy appreciate the kind words. So from my experience you can run 280ish bhp with 300ft lbs of torque. I have personally run and known others that have run similar for years without issue. If you do go for rifle drilled forged rods you can push it a little harder knowing that your covered. If your going to be doing that would also be worth getting super tech valves or similar and can really maximise the potential. The other common failure is clutches. Your putting all this extra power onto a stock clutch and dual mass that could have done 60-100k haha. It becomes an expensive getting more power haha. Personally a “stage 1” software map and the cooler, intake tip and downpipe make the biggest difference.
Nope, you need to replace the 2 x small OEM cats with the pipewerx high flow cat. Great quality, have fitted recently to my 225 TT.
@@seanb9814 i just keep my old catted downpipe around for yearly inspection and use my 3" after inspection lol
That sounds amazing. Will defo look into getting this done when I start tuning it up.
Not sure how I missed this video ! I picked up a CTS 3inch downpipe and had a shop make a 3 inch straight pipe the all the way back.... car is loud but God was it worth it.
Fitted a PipeWerx DP and sport cat to my 225 TT last month ... after fitting an eBay special 2 weeks earlier. The eBay special did actually fit but it made the car sound like a tractor (cheap flexi I think). The PipeWerx DP is excellent. Perfect fit, well made and sounds great. Could not be happier and highly recommend them.
I know the exact feeling, cheaper is a false economy with some things and a down pipe is one of them haha, glad your happy
Something else on the list one thing I definitely need is to get my wheels resprayed my arches done and an induction kit, car sounds lovely mate keep up the good work 👊🏻
colin bell thanks as always Colin, yeah its certainly a marathon not a sprint getting a tt back to its best that’s for sure. Nice when it all comes together though 😍
The Parrott Bro’s it is mate I spent a few hours yesterday cleaning and degreaseing the engine fixing the side lights looking lovely now just need that induction kit and that’s one part done,the TT has been a god send at the moment I’ve loved working on her.
colin bell Sounds like you’re doing well, they are quite straightforward to work on modifications wise, that air filter will make a lovely difference especially when you take it down the road for a 20 mile road trip test 😂. I Only planned to go round the block and was out for an hour. I’m currently in the process of making a list of what I’ve got left to do versus what videos I want to make
Thanks for all your videos
Jeff0000 a pleasure as always. Thanks for watching them 👌🏻
Great too see a driving video.
The mic placement and sound was great.
Top exhaust sounds!
Id love to use photogrammetry to map the frame and model a nice dump pipe, that uses pie cuts. :)
Ive always wanted a tear drop style bonnet exit exhaust and screamer pipe / external wategate..... maybe one day
Love your videos mate
I want to add one thing about intercoolers. I see a lot of people getting an FMIC and kicking out the SMICs.
That might be a workable option in the UK (which probably means for most people watching thing) but I live in the near-East where we do get what you call "a proper summer". For 9 months of the year.
I went with an FMIC after doing the 3" downpipe and initially I was happy with it. I went with it mostly because it was actually cheaper than any DSMIC option I could find (in 2019/2020). However, the first "proper drive" I took saw the coolant temperature doing things it really shouldn't be doing after some time. I jiggled a little with trying to duct flow more effectively but nothing I did could solve the problem.. the FMIC sitting in front of the radiator just meant that in hot climates all you can do with an FMIC is a few 1/4 mile runs and you need to just let everything cool down. I could change the radiator and that might help, but ultimately there isn't that much space to play with.
I went for some upgraded DSMICs (~60% larger core, bar&plate, full-metal) and I never again had a problem.
So I guess if you just want the occasional burst of power, an FMIC will do, for anything more serious: DSMIC is a must-have IMO. I don't see any reason to mess around with larger radiators, especially if you cram a bigger turbo in the back and then have to basically cut up the entire front of the car, which adds a TON of drag to the car which makes it somewhat jittery at high speeds (the TT has a nervous back-end at speed without some extensive mods...)
I completely agree with you, for the uk they are perfectly fine, but I can imagine like you say in hotter climates it can be more of an issue.
In England we would be lucky if we have 3 consecutive days of nice weather 😂
awesome vids as USUAL!!! love all of this; you really keep the spirit alive with the TT world..best guy doing reg. TT vids for sure..I do have a particular question on something not exhaust-related..have you ever lost the side blinker wire to the inside of the fender?? I ask because I was trying to replace the blinker bulb with a fancy led job, and the wire fell down inside (amazon sold and adverted the wrong part lol). Is there an easy way to fish that blinker wire back up, without removing panels? again, just amazing coverage on the TT side Dom.
Another great video. Makes me want to do another video of the Borla on my TT
Thanks buddy, yeah I would too sounds lovely
Down pipes and flow always helps more air flow more power win win . 👍

Great vid mate ! Just picked up an 03 225 convertible here in Australia with a manual box and am looking forward to seeing how much difference it makes doing all the mods you recommend !
Welcome aboard, it will be a great journey and most enjoyable, jealous that you have so much nice weather to play cars haha
Watching this again.
My TT is a total unknown, but seem heaps quick, when you look at the tachometer. First and second are redline as quick as you can change gears.
Lols😏 I’m replacing the sump soon. Hopefully it’s got good rods and ARP bolts. 🙏🏻😂😂
hahaha, yeah 1st & 2nd are far too short in these cars, 3rd and 4th are where it puts in the graft for sure
I put a 42 Draft Designs 3" Turbo Back on my 2002 225 TT with the cat delete $1200 and almost bolt on in the driveway. A muffler shop put the downpipe on for me for $50. A huge difference!
Michael McLoughlin bet that sounds lovely :)
Hope that exhaust note at the end was not from the tailgate squirrel ! Great vid 👍
Haha not sure what that was. Now the car is fully poly bushed it makes al sorts of noises 😅
Top video!
Cuts through da-shizz!
Love that about your videos.
🤜🏼🤛🏼🇦🇺🍀🍀🍀😎
Thanks Steve appreciate the comment & channel Support
Great video you should do one on race cams for the 1.8 T.
That would be cool, There is so many things i would like to do to the cat in the future
Nice description when you put your window up and down I thought it was just my TT that had squeaky windows glad it's not because it does my nut in 😁 once again helpful information seen on a few TT forums dudes having problems with cheep down pipes
S Broon yeah I need to take the door cards off and give it a good grease up. If it’s not one thing it’s something else 😂. Thanks buddy 👍🏻
Inhave the same thing too! Annoying ahaha
My dad fitted a new one in the doors and still has this problem. When it is hot outside it is about to happen anyway!
Literally just had my down pipe fitted last week!
The JT Project makes a lovely difference doesn’t it
The Parrott Bro’s it certainly does! I’ve found it’s a lot quieter and there’s certainly more power!
The Parrott Bro’s bought my Tt about a month ago, it’s a beauty!
The JT Project are you on Instagram? Would like to see some pics
How much did it cost if you dont mind saying?
great vid again mate, but what do you think about the differnt n75 valves (maybe do a vid) like the race version to the cheap ebay versions and genuine Audi versions with different part numbers.
Thank you, I would only ever use one and that’s the genuine n75. The eBay ones are no good, break easy and seen nothing but trouble with them. Not had any dealings with race ones. Everyone I know who runs fast cars that still use n75 boost control use stock genuine n75’s. Usually use the latest revision on sensor, genuine ones usually last between 75-100k miles.
I like t-shirt even it's not a TT. Where did you buy it?
Cool t shirt
Thanks buddy, it was a gift back when I had a my b5 s4 😍
Great video here. Just looking to see your thoughts bought car with a Decat and full strainless steel exhaust. On a wing an a prayer hoped it would pass it's MOT it did not, assume it is more likely these options with the sport CAT would pass MOT?
Thank you, yes a sports cat should pass an Mot as it’s still a catalytic Converter but just has a higher flow rate compared to stock ones. The pipewerx one linked in the description is what I have and had no issues 👍🏻
Great sounding exhaust looking for parts for my 1.8T S3
Do you know if the down pipe would work on the APY motor off the top of your head. Thanks
@@louisparks1999 the downpipe should work on your s3, as k04 should be fine
@@TheParrottBros Thank you very much. I never quite found a great exhaust note for the 1.8t until I heard your car. Love the car and keep up the great videos. 👍
@@louisparks1999 appreciate that buddy :)
Sounds really fantastic, what power does the map give ? Great video, enjoyed it a lot👍👌
Teit Hansen on a 225 it gives you 35-40hp on stock engine. With the extra mods about 55-60hp
Wow that’s a lot, is it running Decat ?
The 55-60 would be decat, front mount cooler, turbo intake pipe etc
What’s the smoke at 5:30 when you put the windows down? It’s not dust it’s clearly smoking
have you links für TT FWD AUQ Downpipe - must fit to an K04-064 Turbo
I want to upgrade mine this year
Makes a nice difference
Has anyone fitted a new turbo back exhaust to the 180 TT, looking to replace it with the twin exhaust and replacing the rear defuser to accommodate the twin exhaust ?
Does this down pipe fit for the U.S models ? Also how does reliability go for the awd system ? Thank you in advance btw just found you’re channel you got a sub!
Thanks for the support, I can’t see why it wouldn’t fit as the engine layout is the same apart from the steering column being on the other side, it would be worth comparing an English 2 to5 stock downpipe with a US one in pictures and see if there is any physical difference. What do you mean reliability go for the all wheel drive system? Thanks dom
Great video mate, Would I be heavily restricted if I fit a 3" cat back system and downpipe but keep the original cat
A cat back system will be just fine for sound, if you want performance then a larger downpipe and sports cat would be the preferred choice, i ran cat back for years fine :)
Proper good video, sounds really good
Thanks buddy :)
Mate that sounds sweet 🙌🏾
Thanks fella 😊
Found it ! Sorry which 1 u recommend for my car ? Don't want to loud
I couldn’t say as not looked into newer models. Scorpion or miltek with sports cats are always a good choice. Shouldn’t add too much sound
Another great video, I've had my 3" pipe ready to fit for about 4 months now but i remember the pain in fitting one to my old LCR and just keep putting it off 🤣 I think its cos i went cheap with toyosports this time and know it will be a fight.
Thanks fella, appreciate the ongoing support 👌🏻 lcr is easy being only 2wd 😂. You’ll be fine, just befriend a mechanic and buy lots of beer
@@TheParrottBros Yeah my mate and I did my LCR on a ramp but we don't have access to it anymore & I'm too old and fat to be laying under a jacked up car swearing at the downpipe 😂 Probably put it into a VAG specialist not far from me instead, let them do the swearing at it 👍
bunter6 😂😂😂😂😂
what is your exhaust setup in this particular video? it sounds beautiful. i have a tt quattro alms i wanted to put a cheapo ebay downpipe but not sure if should.
It was a pipewerx downpipe and decat, with a powerflow twin box custom rear end, a lot of people have said the Miltek catback non res is the sweet spot for sound on these and i tend to agree
I like your videos, I have the 225, if I just put dowmpipe and it's still catalyzed it works fine? Or does the catalyst have to be removed?
You can buy a 3” down pipe with sports cat, this will allow you to still get an MOT legally without issue
Hey mate love your work, great videos thanks! Just got a 2001 225 and want a nice sound not too loud, was looking at deleting res or muffler as don't want to spend much, but just saw this.. If everything else is stock, does a 3" DP like this make a worthwhile difference to sound and some gains compared to removing things? Cheers
For the agro it is to change the down pipe a backbox delete would be cheaper and sound louder, the downpipe does add some sound but not loads, but does increase flow somewhat tho
@@TheParrottBros thank you! I was worried about backbox delete being too loud as I'm going to keep everything else as oem as possible :)
@@mattq836 if you watch my exhaust sounds video there is a couple clips of a backbox delete
@@TheParrottBros thank you :)
Great video,
Has anyone fitted the Baf Motorsport one? looks really nice
I know of a few people who have had it and its a good quality and decent fit
@@TheParrottBros thanks
I’m fitting a pipe werx one for a friend in a couple weeks.
Hiya mate,looking for your opinion. I really want to go to a stage 2 with my 2004 MK1 Audi TT 225 coupe. I can afford the air filter(Ramair with built in velocity stack) and I'm thinking of a Forge upgraded intercooler. It's when it comes to exhaust systems I get stuck. Ideally I would go for the full Milltek 3" large bore downpipe and sport cat ( I want it to pass MOT's without having to change out a decat one for it to pass ). This has to be used in conjunction with their 3" race exhaust system. The problem is I'm working to a tight budget and with everything else I want to do to the car I just can't stretch to roundabout £1800 for the whole system. I'm a bit disappointed and don't want to settle for a stage one as I will already have 2 out of the 3 prerequisites for a stage 2. It feels to me you'd be wasting your money: £220 for a stage 1 and £270 for a stage 2. I have just watched your video on 3" downpipes and I really want one. Pipewerx does the downpipe and sport cat but can you recommend a decent but not Milltek money equivalent for the rest of the exhaust from the cat back ? Like you say, I don't want to buy some cheap c**p off eBay. I've looked at the Scorpion resonated system ( I'm not 21 anymore and just couldn't handle the constant cabin noise),and even though it says it's for a 225 BAM when you enter your saved car it says it doesn't fit !? This is on eBay mind. So if you could give me some options with your experience and knowledge I'd be most grateful. I'm looking to spend about a grand all in,maybe could stretch it to £1200. Like I said in an ideal world Milltek would be my first choice but for downpipe,sport cat and 3" resonated race exhaust it's not much change out of £1800. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also what is your opinion on Forge diverters and blow off valves, personally I like the whoosh of a blowoff valve and now Forge do both,a diverter valve and a splitter with blowoff. I know from comments on various TT forums 99% of people used to say avoid blowoff valves as the bam engine wasn't designed for that and came with a plasticy crap OEM one and it can lead to all sorts of problems but some of this information is nigh on 15 years old and there must've been some advancements since then. So I will be upgrading one way or another. I personally would like the splitter with built in blowoff and I'd like to think a company like Forge wouldn't sell it if it didn't work but I would like your opinion on this matter please if it's not too much bother. Any other suggestions would be great, different intercoolers(cheaper alternatives).I will be joining your channel but had to make a double mortgage payment today and do a huge grocery shop so I'm skint until Tuesday. Do you get a Parrott Bros badge when you join or can you buy one ? BTW love your videos,so insightful, I think I have about 20 on my playlist,and your one lucky man having so many lovely cars
Many thanks,
Iain Lock
Hey Iain, wow so where to start
Exhaust wise, get a pipewerx downpipe and sports cat, fit it to a stock cat back system for the time being and keep a saved search on eBay for a miltek or scorpion resonated cat back system. Usually come up for 250-350£ second hand
Do not fit a blow off valve as these engines use a maf to measure air into the system. A blow off valve will mess it up and make it run badly. An open cone filter like the pro ram along with a forge 007p or similar recirc will give you that whoosh on gear changes that you want.
Intercooler wise you can do the home made version I did for about £250-300. Or again keep an eye out for a used one, if not forge or airtec will do the job for sure
If your on Facebook jump in the tt pages and speak to some of the breakers or put up a wanted post, most of them have used stage 2 parts on the shelf ready to go
Thanks dom
You talked me into it :) just got mine yesterday pipewerx 3" and sports cat , any idea what i should be looking at for getting it fit . Great vids btw keep em coming.
Roy Fitzpatrick it all depends who’s doing them, bryn / bws tt is very reasonable for
Fitting as it’s quite a “fun” job haha not sure on the book time, couple hours
Have you ever had problems with a sports cat and a remap for MOT emissions?
No mate, always make sure I take it got a good drive prior to the mot
Hi m8 another great vid , is it essential to get a remap after fitting a downpipe already have the Badger 5 tip and prob go full exhaust soon anyway cheers.
Rek73 thank you, it’s not essential but you would gain 40-50hp so would be worthwhile to get the most out of the car
Cheers m8 anywhere in the Derby midlands area you would recommend, also how far do you travel to carry out work on Tts
Rek73 the guy who does my mapping is based in Notts so not far for you, he’s well priced and very knowledgable. He is also a 25 year seasoned vag mechanic. I don’t work on others cars buddy but would recommend the notts fella. Send me a message via website, Facebook or insta and I’ll pass you on his info
Great vid, very interesting as I have been looking at the scorpion down pipe on my 225 roadster to compliment the cat back already fitted. Does say on their website the EML light may be activated. Do you know if this is common?
james hawkins I’ve not had the issue with eml light, but mine is mapped so may help. Easy enough to get post lambda sensor values changed or coded out. Great excuse for a map ;). A big company like that should be fine fitting wise as they are a world wide brand. Just not had personal experience with them 👍🏻
@@TheParrottBros cheers for the info 👍
james hawkins anytime
@@TheParrottBros on the eml... Have you heard it I go into limp mode or just the warning lamp. Already on from SAI delete. My scorpion 180 3" sport cat system is finally getting delivered next week and curious if I do the clutch now and fit the system then map it later can I drive it without limping... Effectively save dropping the subframe twice. Worst case I store it a while I redesign the intake side of things do the lot shortly before an rtek remap.
Where can I buy ? I have a audi a3 1.8t 2016
any opinions about alpha competition decat for these cars ?
Its not one I've heard of before im afraid so could not say
I currently run a decat on my 225 roadster but my mechanic offers me a down pipe and states to leave the rest of the exhaust standard.Will I have gains?
A decat and down pipe even with a stock cat back will give a better performance over stock downpipe and cat for sure
Hi. I watched a clip of yours regarding an updated fuel pump. Are these after market or audi parts.
Thanks.
Steven Sheppard aftermarket. Usually if you are modifying and looking to increase power the stock pumps are tired and can fail. If your not looking for much more power a stock one should be fine and can always be replaced.
The options people usually go for are Bosch 044 pump or the Dw65.
If you google them and 1.8t there is plenty of info on them 😊.
Best speaking to the person who you intend to map your car if you are and see what they recommend
@@TheParrottBros btw if anyone is thinking fitting an bosch 044 fuel pump into an A4 B6 Quattro, it doesn't fit because it is too high for the tank, so use the Bosch 040 pump.
@@dennisugak5217 Thanks for the info thats helpful to know, im guessing you found out the hard way?
Hi do you have a link to a downpipe that fits without any modification. Your links to the eBay ones don't work anymore. Cheers.
The pipewerx is the one to go for, just checked and all the links are working from my end, let me know if they are not yoyr end. thanks Dom
What diverter valve are you running in this video ?
Just a stock original Bosch one
Hi dom. I now have one of these with their high flow cat plus ordered a brand new turbo gasket and nuts.
Is it worth me getting a new bosch lambda sensor also so garage can fit all at the same time?.
Thanks.
If you have an original lambda in there then I would get a new one as there is a strong possibility it will pull threads when removed. Worst case you don’t need it
Can always return it if not needed
@@TheParrottBros thanks dude 😎
Hi just wondering where you brought your pipewerx decat and downpipe from? Also how much did it cost you if you dont mind me asking? I brought the ebay decat the other day but after seeing this video I am going to return it and get the pipewerx version. Thanks in advance.
Hey buddy, I bought it off eBay, there should be a link In this video description for the one I bought. If it’s not let me know and I’ll dig one out
@@TheParrottBros thanks for the response. I've found the downpipe and decat made by pipewerx now thanks for the help. I just hope the performance is worth the excessive exhaust sounds I'll get, once its fitted haha, as I'll have a 3" straight through exhaust system 😅😁 Also wanted to say thank you for all the videos you guys do they're very helpful and I've watched a lot of them when reparing and changing parts on my TT. So thank you for that 👍
@@Marcus-MCWHU my pleasure buddy, the increase in flow makes a massive difference thanks for sure
Music to the 👂👂
As good as I could record it the video just doesn’t do it justice. Need to get a few drive by’s
To have more power is enough changing the downpipe, or you recommend change all the exhaust?
Ignacio a downpipe and decat or sports cat will increase flow. Even with a stock car back
I had a 3inch stainless exhaust fitted its like a different car 10/15 extra bhp
Loads more responsive And sounds sweet
Downpipe is the most restrictive part of the whole exhaust system so definitely the best place to start 👍
Hey mate, great videos :) What real world mpg are you getting back from one of these driving normally around town and on a long runs? Thanks :)
Ciaran Minns thanks buddy, on a long run I can get 38-40mpg cruising on motorway. Then round town is anything from 20-30 depending on how you drive. If I’m driving it round local roads I’m usually not hanging around haha. Overall it isn’t bad at all
@@TheParrottBros top man thank you for your quick reply. Think I might take the plunge and get a 225!
My overall actual best mpg is 29
That was worked out precisely
Mines mapped 3 inch stainless poss running 260/270 so not so bad
If you drive them real hard then drink fuel 😎
What psi are you running? Does it keep boost till redline or does it drop like 3 psi?
Marley Brown hey buddy, it peaks at 21 then drops to 18psi. That’s normal for it to peak then drop down a little.

No 180 & 225 are different, you can but a downpipe for a 180 but they are a different shape, also differ between fwd and quattro
@@TheParrottBros thank you very much!! Do you know where I can find a 3" downpipe for a 180 quattro?
Did you go decat or sports cat route?
Liam I got both, mainly sports cat and then decat for track
Thanks for the reply, I'm actually viewing a nice mk1 225 TT tomorrow. Always fancied one, I know they are pretty quiet standard so will be looking at changing to the 3 inch downpipe. Just worried it will be too noisy though 🤔 I've had noisy cars and kind of grown up alittle 😂
Liam haha I know that feeling, stock is silent, with the down pipe they are not too bad, a miltek also sounds quite nice. The induction kit adds quite a bit of noise and recirc ( a dump like noise)

Nothing wrong with the ebay down pipe iv had 3 off them all have been fine better than over paying£300
Marky Mark tt your the first person I’ve ever had say that, many vag techs who work on these cars day in day out have said they fowl on all sorts. I have had 4 personal experiences with cheap eBay downpours and all have had fitting issues wether it be bulkhead, hitting prop or touching ps lines. I’d rather spend the extra money and get a better quality one that I’ve never had issues fitting than have to fettle with the downpipe or the bulkhead etc
Anything like this for the 180 Bhp.
There is some options yes, Quattro or front wheel drive?
@@TheParrottBros mines a mk1 roadster quattro
Just like to know what can be done to the engine etc or is it s better option to change the engine to s 225
SuperGraham1975 they do mate a downpipe specifically to the 180, if your after big power gains you have a few options. You can swap out the turbo, inlet, injectors, maf and make it a k04. Turn can use the downpipe I’ve shown in video and will make better power on mapping. You can swap engine but may need to change out engine, loom, ecu etc as 225’s run more sensors than a 180. So quite involved . Be cheaper to buy a 225
