defender dinky Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 hi, when i did my disco 200tdi conversion to d90 i used down pipe off disco and cut the flange off the end of exhaust box leaving enough on, to weld a flange from a disco pipe back on the exhaust box and used all the back end of td exhaust pipe that all the brackets fit defender dinky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really does depend if you want an 'out of the box' solution by spending some money, or saving the money and doing a conversion yourself.

jason110 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I used a steve parker conversion kit. was a 2.5 N/A now running a 200TDI. it was all easy to put on, the guys at steve parker are easy to deal with etc. its a bit pricey, but does save a lot of F****** about etc.. depends on your budget and how much time you have. jase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaDi90Hybrid Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 IIRC it is possible to make a downpipe from a 300TDi flange and then weld a pipe onto it, that said it takes forever and is still very close to the starter. I did this first time then changed it for a steve parker one. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

666 george Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 I used the TD pipes just cut off the flange and add to the down pipe everbody is useing. But I've been told you can use all the Tdi pipe work(not the down pipe). Mine is on it's way out so I'm going to cut up a disco exhaust and make it fit the 90.
