The original Downpipe severely restricts exhaust flow and therefore has a negative effect on power output, particularly when the car has been chip-tuned.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe CTS Downpipe allows the exhaust gases to flow smoothly whilst looking great. Key features include the CNC-machined turbine discharge flange, the \u003cstrong\u003emandrel-bent 3-inch stainless steel pipework\u003c\/strong\u003e, the modular design for easy fitting, and the smooth transitions for optimum exhaust gas flow. Precise manufacturing, high quality and a competitive price make this Downpipe an attractive option for VW enthusiasts looking to balance performance and budget.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo resolve the engine fault light, the correct tuning software must be used. CTS Turbo recommends a high-flow catalytic converter and strongly advises a Stage 2 software upgrade.
