Hey guys

I wanted to know what the differences are physically for the downpipe a for a 2014 Passat tdi to the 2015 Passat tdi engines. I can't seem to find anything in search on here or in google.

The dilemma is I have a CKRA downpipe brand new I wanted to try and use on my 2015 Passat. But it looks like it may not work, given there are two different links to buy on buzz Ken and raw tek sites.

Can anyone help me understand the issues here. I would hate to not be able to use my ckra downpipe.

Thanks

Not gonna work, different pipe all together. the plumbing of the turbo on the '15 is a different world than the CKRA.

BTW Buzkin emails pretty darn quick, they sent a couple emails to me regarding the testing of the '15 Passat Pipe. They would be the source of knowledge of exact differences, shoot them an email.

I'm sure someone would still be interested in the CKRA pipe at a reasonable cost, lot of CKRAs are going to be fixed and still on the road.
