downpipe

so i just ordered the beluga racing 3" catless downpipe for my 2011 gti and i was wondering if anyone knew if i am going to need any extra hardware for the downpipe then what it comes with already or is everything direct bolt on

Its bolt on. I did however buy a oem gasket to use for the downpipe to turbo instead of using their supplied one.

I had my mechanic install it so im not sure if he used the nuts i bought or the ones that were on there wasnt to concerned i just told him i wanted the OEM gasket not the one that came with the downpipe.. which i know he used because i he gave me back the one that came with the downpipe when i picked it up.


for those items 1 gasket and 4 nuts shipped it was $20.07

You may also want to get a couple studs in case you back one out of the turbo with the existing nut on it. I speak from experience on this. Had to buy one new stud and nut because I backed out the hard to reach nut and stud from the turbo and couldn't get the nut off without destroying the stud.
