Within the next few months I would like to go to a Stage 2 tune the means I will need a downpipe. I have a 2008 2.0T and I haven't seen many companies that make them, so if anyone has any recommendations and reviews it would be great.
Thanks, Blake

Genuine Saab, OBX Racing, and Krona are the common ones. I think BSR used to make one.

I have the Krona and have nothing but good to say about it. Fit and finish is excellent.

Pretty much just those 3 to choose from..... Although I'm highly biased towards the Krona, its absolutely amazing! Keep in mind that you'll get what you pay for too!

Have you had any experience with the OBX downpipe? seems like a good deal but is performance and quality there?

Get the OBX if its cheaper. All and all they are all the same, 3inch piping with cat or not.....

Been running the OBX for 3 years now with no problem. just get the one that is the better deal, because performance Wise you wont see any difference between the 3

Which one doesn't have the gas smell?

BSR still makes theirs, but, you wont find it because it is stupidly overpriced and nobody carries it in the US.

JT and Ferrita also have them.

Berkeley: No gas smell on the Krona, and mine's even second-hand. I probably own the only second-owner Krona system. :cheesy:

Gas smell have nothing to do with the downpipe being OBX,krona , JT..... Gas smell will come if you go catless and even then it aint that bad.

Thus the OBX have a fake cath , so you will notice the smell a bit more than catted downpipe

Who's doing your tune? Technically a "stage 2" tune doesn't require a DP. Catback at most.

This is what my car sounds like with the GenuineSaab 3" downpipe (open exhaust after the downpipe, no muffler/resonator):

Food for thought.
