Description

We are proud to release the new CTS Turbo 3.5″ Stainless Steel High-Flow Cat for the front-wheel drive MQB vehicles such as MK7 GTI (incl. Performance Pack), MK7 VW GLI, MK7 Golf 1.8TSI (incl. Sportwagen FWD), MK7 VW Beetle 1.8TSI, MK3 Audi TT (FWD only) and 8V Audi A3 1.8TSI (FWD only, not Quattro).

Unfortunately, the factory downpipe that comes as standard equipment in your car was designed for anything but performance.  The factory downpipe severely restricts exhaust flow and therefor has adverse effects on horsepower, especially once your car is “chipped”.  The CTS Turbo High-Flow Cat will allow for your exhaust gases to flow smoothly, freeing up the additional ponies that you want, all while look amazing.  Highlights of our High-Flow Cat include CNC machined turbine discharge (downpipe) flange, mandrel bent 3″ stainless steel tubing, modular design making installation of a catalytic converter simple and straight forward, smooth transitions allowing for optimal exhaust gas flow.

Precision fabrication, unparalleled quality and great price point all make the CTS Turbo MK7 FWD High-Flow Cat a must-have for any VW enthusiast that values performance and their pocketbook.

Product Details:

  • T304 Seamless Stainless Steel tubing
  • T304 Stainless Steel flanges
  • 100% TIG-Welded and back purged
  • T304 Stainless Steel 02 bung
  • Stainless Steel Clamps
  • Great Sound even with factory exhaust, no drone!!

Fitment:

  • 2015-2020 VW Golf 1.8TSI FWD (including facelift)
  • 2015-2021 VW GTI 2.0TSI (including PP and facelift)
  • 2015-2020 Audi A3 1.8TSI FWD (including facelift)
  • 2019+ VW GLI

To remove the CEL that will occur, proper tuning software must be used. CTS Turbo recommends choosing a High Flow Cat for the sake of our environment!

Using the optional CEL eliminator greatly reduces the possibility of CEL coming on for cat efficiency code. This is not 100% effective.

Stage 2 software is required to avoid check engine light.

    I installed this downpipe on my 2017 Golf GTI and it fit and sounded great. I ran it for about 20,000 miles before selling the car to a friend and it showed no signs of wearing out or cracking. You can find the install video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNLpZHPJYuE

    Hi I’m Khaled from UAE, I installed this amazing down pipe by CTS great quality fantastic welds gave the car a really nice tone you can feel the car is more responsive at low Rpms I’m running it with a o2 sensor spacer,no check engine light works perfectly fine stock tune I would recommend this down pipe and o2 sensor spacer, hopefully in the future I will install an air intake by CTS to get that turbo sounds😉
