We can say without a doubt that this is the best Downpipe on the market for these cars. This is an extreme Downpipe, lovingly handcrafted in Europe and built for maximum performance, massive flow and absolute durability. Built for maximum performance and long-lasting quality.
Give your 1.8 or 2.0 TSI EA888.3 engine the ultimate upgrade with the Endura Motorsport V2 Downpipe. This version has been developed as the best choice for maximum performance and longevity: hand-crafted in Europe, featuring a unique cast elbow, made entirely from T304 stainless steel and boasting a one-piece design that makes exhaust leaks virtually impossible.
Approximately 50% of the Downpipe is 3.5 inches (89 mm) for massive flow and rapid turbo Spool-up, whilst the other half is 3 inches (76 mm) and tapers at the end to match the original exhaust diameter. This allows you to benefit from maximum performance, whilst the Downpipe fits straight onto the original exhaust or centre silencer without any modifications.
The V2 Downpipe is manufactured entirely from T304 stainless steel and TIG-welded. The cast stainless steel elbow ensures extreme strength and perfect gas flow. The Downpipe features integrated OPF bungs and comes with blanking plugs, making it suitable for both OPF and non-OPF vehicles.
The Downpipe has a total of 3 sensor connections:
• 1x connection for the lambda
sensor• 2x temperature sensor bungs (as with all OPF models)
Important: on vehicles with an OPF, the original Downpipe also has two additional connections for OPF pressure sensors. These connections are not present on the Endura Motorsport V2 Downpipe, as this pressure measurement is no longer used with performance upgrades.
What to do:
Remove the metal pipes from the pressure sensors. You will then be left with only the rubber hoses.
Sealing:
• Insert a sealing plug or an M8 bolt into each hose•
Secure with a hose clamp to ensure it is completely airtight
Tidy away:
• Secure the hoses behind a heat shield
using cable ties• Ensure they cannot come into contact with the exhaust or moving parts

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this V2 Downpipe fit the original exhaust?
Yes, thanks to the adapter, the Endura Motorsport V2 Downpipe fits directly onto the original exhaust or centre silencer.
Does this Downpipe work on both OPF and non-OPF models?
Yes. The Downpipe features welded OPF bungs for facelift models and blanking plugs for non-OPF vehicles.
Do I need a tune?
A tune is always necessary for OPF models. For non-OPF vehicles with a fitted catalytic converter, it may sometimes be possible to do without a tune, but this is not guaranteed. This is because the 200-cell high-flow sports catalytic converter can provide so much flow that the ECU detects the catalytic converter is not functioning properly.
Is installation difficult?
No. The Downpipe is plug-and-play and fits without any welding.
What is the difference between the decat and the sports cat?
The decat offers maximum flow and the loudest sound. The 200-cell sports cat is slightly quieter and more emissions-friendly but still provides high flow.
