Development of the Golf 5 platform is not limited to FMIC kits or turbo kits: this new \u003cstrong\u003e3-inch turbo-back exhaust system\u003c\/strong\u003e for the \u003cstrong\u003eVolkswagen Golf 5 GTI\u003c\/strong\u003e is proof of that. The 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 Golf 5 GTI 2.0T exhausts currently available may restrict peak power and limit flow due to their \u003cstrong\u003e2.5-inch or 2.75-inch\u003c\/strong\u003e construction. The \u003cstrong\u003e3-inch\u003c\/strong\u003e design of this turbo-back system is ideal for anyone seeking serious power.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEvery CTS Golf 5 GTI \u003cstrong\u003eDownpipe\u003c\/strong\u003e is 100% TIG-welded, constructed from \u003cstrong\u003e3-inch seamless T304 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and comes with stainless steel clamps. Cheaper products are available without stainless steel or with welded stainless steel, which can crack and corrode over time. The CTS Golf 5 GTI Downpipe replaces the factory Downpipe, allows the turbo to Spool up faster and increases peak power. The larger 3-inch 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 system\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAggressive sound when driving hard, subdued whilst cruising\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eWaterjet-cut flanges\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCNC mandrel-bent stainless steel pipework\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAdjustable 3-inch tailpipes\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDownpipe 100% TIG-welded from 3-inch seamless T304 stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eStage 2 software is required to prevent the engine fault light from coming on\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-inch\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eEnd caps: adjustable, 3-inch\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eFlanges: waterjet-cut\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eManufacturing technique: hand-welded using TIG, CNC mandrel-bent pipework\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eFinish: polished stainless steel tubing\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 exhaust system, 3-inch, including Downpipe\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\u003eDo I need software with this exhaust system?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes, Stage 2 software is required to prevent the engine fault light from coming on.
