I did that to mine the down pipe is close to the steering rack and the cat hangs low. I'm going to cut about 1/2" from the downpipe and reweld it. Should be good then.

Yea, my cat is hanging a little low too. I have not driven it yet, but I'm thinking I might have to have mine cut and welded as well.
 
What sort of exhaust manifold / downpipe / cat combos are you guys running?

Both of my aba swaps have a raceland header to a 2.5in exhaust, magnaflow resonator, and magnaflow muffler:laugh:
 
Hey everyone! Finished my swap about a year and a half ago.

Aye bae bae

im having some cooling issues with the car since deleting the coolant bottle maybe its how i routed it if anyone could shed some light on how they routed the hoses what got pluged etc thx in advanced.
 
Looks like the wires are hooked up directly to some crazy ignition coil? I interested in how this works to..no distributor?
Stand alone engine management, firing wasted spark coils. Funny, looks like there is a trigger wheel on the cam? Usually they are on the crank or there is one internal.
 
I keep searching with no solid answer, maybe I can get one here.

I have an obd2 aba swap in my jetta. I have the motor raised in the front for pan clearance. The throttle body hits the hood. Flipped throttle body and relocated throttle cable above intake. Still hits hood.

I've seen this topic so I can't be the only one. But whats the best solution?
