If you're looking to take your VW or Audi to the next level, the IE Catted Cast Downpipe is a solid choice. This isn't just another aftermarket part; it’s designed with real-world performance in mind. The cast bend sections are a game changer’they allow for maximum flow and fit like a glove. Trust me, when you pair this with an IE Stage 2 ECU tune, you’ll feel the difference. We're talking about impressive power gains that really make your ride come alive.
One of the standout features is the 76mm (that’s 3 inches) tubing, which replaces the factory's restrictive 60mm setup. This means less back pressure and more power. Plus, the bolt-on fitment means you won’t be wrestling with poorly fitting parts. The last thing you want is a headache during installation, and with IE, you can skip that hassle.
Built from 304 stainless steel, this downpipe is tough and designed to last. The thick turbo flange is a nice touch too’it helps prevent leaks and warping, which can be a real pain down the line. And let’s talk about the high-flow 200 cell catalytic converter. It’s a win-win: you get full power while keeping pollution and that nasty smell in check.
Another cool feature is the OEM-style flex section. This allows for more adjustment and is less likely to fail compared to other options out there. The kit comes complete with everything you need’downpipe, midpipes, and all the hardware. And with TIG welded construction, you can count on those welds sticking around for the long haul.
Fitment:
- Audi A3 MK3/8V with 1.8T & 2.0T engines (FWD only)
- Volkswagen GTI MK7 2.0T engine
- Volkswagen GTI MK7.5 2.0T engine
- Volkswagen Golf MK7 with 1.8T & 2.0T engines (FWD only)
- Volkswagen Golf MK7.5 with 1.8T & 2.0T engines (FWD only)
Note: Just a heads up, the pictures are for marketing purposes, so the actual product might look a bit different. This downpipe system comes with a mid-pipe designed specifically for Gen 3 1.8T and 2.0T engines in front-wheel drive vehicles only. If you have an all-wheel drive (AWD) Quattro or 4 Motion vehicle, you’ll need a different mid-pipe section that’s included in our AWD MQB downpipe kit (IE Part Number: IEExCI1). Make sure to check if your ride is AWD or FWD before you hit that order button.
In short, if you're serious about performance and want to unleash the full potential of your VW or Audi, the IE Catted Cast Downpipe is definitely worth considering.
