Show original supplier description
The Canadian Auto Performance Stainless Steel Downpipe is a premium performance upgrade designed to enhance the exhaust flow and overall performance of your MK7 Golf R or 8V Audi A3/S3 (AWD). The factory downpipe typically restricts exhaust flow, limiting your vehicle's potential. It is 100% TIG welded and back-purged, with precision CNC machined flanges for a seamless and durable installation. The bolt-on design ensures a straightforward fitment process. Key benefits include faster turbo spool-up, improved throttle response, and an enhanced exhaust note. Software tunes are recommended to fully maximize the power gains achievable with this downpipe.
