The CTS Downpipe for the Volkswagen Golf 4, GTI and Jetta 4 with a 1.8T engine is the new 3-inch racing pipe from CTS Turbo, made from stainless steel. The original Downpipe fitted as standard to the car is designed for anything but performance. It severely restricts the flow of exhaust gases and therefore has a detrimental effect on power output, particularly when the car has been remapped.
The CTS race pipe allows the exhaust gases to flow freely and unlocks the extra horsepower you’re looking for, whilst also looking great. Key features include the CNC-machined turbine discharge flange (also known as the Downpipe flange), 3-inch mandrel-bent stainless steel pipework, a modular design that makes installation simple and straightforward, and smooth transitions for optimal exhaust gas flow.
Precise manufacturing, unrivalled quality and a competitive price make the CTS 1.8T race exhaust a must-have for any VW enthusiast who values both performance and value for money. To prevent the engine fault light from coming on, the correct tuning software must be used. Stage 2 software is required to prevent the engine fault light from coming on.

Frequently asked questions
Why should I replace the original Downpipe?
The original Downpipe severely restricts the flow of exhaust gases and therefore has a negative effect on power output, particularly if the car has been remapped.
Will the engine fault light come on?
The engine fault light will come on. To clear this, the correct tuning software must be used. Stage 2 software is required to prevent the engine fault light from coming on.
How is it fitted?
The modular design makes fitting simple and straightforward.
