The CTS Race Downpipe is the new 3-inch stainless steel race Downpipe for the transversely mounted 2.0T FSI and 2.0 TSI engines from Audi and VW, including the Golf 5, Golf 6, Jetta, Passat, CC, Audi A3 8P and Audi TT 8J with front-wheel drive. The factory Downpipe fitted as standard in your car is designed for everything except performance. The original Downpipe severely restricts exhaust flow and therefore has a detrimental effect on power output, particularly once your car has been remapped.
CTS Turbo’s straight-thru design allows the exhaust gases to flow smoothly, thereby unlocking the extra horsepower you’re looking for, whilst also looking fantastic. Highlights of this race Downpipe include the CNC-machined turbine discharge flange, the mandrel-bent 3-inch stainless steel pipework, the modular design that makes installation simple and straightforward, and the smooth transitions for optimum exhaust gas flow.
Precise manufacturing, unrivalled quality and a competitive price make this 2.0T FWD race Downpipe a must-have for any enthusiast who values both performance and value for money.
