Question regarding 2.0T backbox/centre silencer

[Jordan427]

Hey guys,

Please could someone confirm whether the backbox and centre silencer from a 2007 2.0T would fit a 2005 2.0T? Both are quattro but does it matter whether it's from a 3/5 Door model? I'd imagine it does because of the length but not sure?

Thanks!

Could really do with some help please....I bought this off ebay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321712954755?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

The guy said it was off a 3DR Quattro, and today it arrives and it looks like the pic attached, seems to have CZ ZL7 1K0 120 AA printed on the bottom -- what exactly have I got

It will be the same regardless of whether its 3dr or 5dr so it should fit.

I'm just curious why the one he sent doesn't have the resonator like in the ebay listing? Does the S3 stock exhaust come without one or something?

 

[Jordan427]

This suggests there are 2 versions, one with the centre silencer and one without?

Seller says the photo in his listing is from the 3.2 and the one he's sent is off 2.0T - so is that right? Does the stock 2.0T exhaust not come with the centre silencer?
Thanks

Anyone? Really need some help here as I don't know whether to be starting an ebay dispute or not! The whole point of getting a stock exhaust was because my milltek non-res is too loud!

Thanks

hmm interesting...thanks, so can anyone confirm whether the 3 door quattro version also comes with the centre silencer? and why the one he sent me doesn't have it?
