Each CTS MK7 GTI downpipe is 100% tig welded, constructed using 3" T304 Seamless Stainless Steel, and includes installation hardware and stainless steel clamps.?? Lesser products can be had without stainless steel construction, or with seamed stainless steel, which can crack and decay over time.? The CTS Turbo?8V S3 downpipe eliminates the factory downpipe, increases turbo spool up, and peak power.? The increased piping diameter of 3" allows for exhaust gases to exit the turbo and wastegate with less turbulence which all result in more power and torque throughout the entire powerband.
