Since its foundation, CTS Turbo has been manufacturing performance parts for enthusiasts, by enthusiasts. The ongoing development of the Golf 5 platform is not limited to FMIC kits or turbo kits; this exhaust system is proof of that.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe system is hand-TIG-welded from the finest \u003cstrong\u003eT304 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and is designed for both road use and heavy-duty big turbo applications. Other exhaust systems for the Golf 5 GTI 2.0T can restrict peak power and limit airflow due to their 2.5- or 2.75-inch bore. The 3-inch design of this turbo-back system is ideal for those seeking serious power.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEvery CTS Golf 5 GTI Downpipe is 100% TIG-welded, constructed from \u003cstrong\u003e3-inch seamless T304 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and supplied with stainless steel clamps. Inferior products are either not made from stainless steel or use welded stainless steel, which can crack and deteriorate over time. The Downpipe replaces the original Downpipe, improves turbo Spool-up and increases peak power. The larger 3-inch pipe diameter allows exhaust gases to flow out of the turbo and Wastegate with less turbulence, resulting in more power and torque across the entire rev range. An upgraded Downpipe is a good idea for any turbocharged car.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eGenuine 3-inch stainless steel turbo-back exhaust with high-flow catalytic converter\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAggressive sound when driving hard, subtle when driving calmly\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eWater-jet cut flanges\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCNC mandrel-bent stainless steel tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003ePolished stainless steel exhaust pipes\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAdjustable 3-inch tailpipes\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e100% TIG-welded\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eReplaces the original Downpipe and improves turbo Spool-up\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMaterial: T304 seamless stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDiameter: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eManufacturing technique: 100% hand-welded using the TIG process, CNC mandrel-bent tubing, water-jet cut flanges\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eSoftware: Stage 2 software required to prevent the engine fault light from coming on\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eWeight: 27.2 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eContents of the set\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCTS Turbo-back 3-inch exhaust with high-flow catalytic converter\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAdjustable 3-inch tailpipes\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003estainless steel clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eInstallation instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs software required?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes, Stage 2 software is required to prevent the engine fault light from coming on.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhy 3-inch and not 2.5 or 2.75-inch?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe larger pipe diameter allows the exhaust gases to flow out of the turbo and the Wastegate with less turbulence, resulting in more power and torque across the entire rev range.
