Integrated Engineering Performance Down Pipe Audi RS3 8V 2017+/TTRS 8S 2018+
DESCRIPTION
Adding a Stage 2 ECU Tune and IE Downpipe to your Audi RS3 or TTRS is the ultimate choice power adder on the stock turbo & engine! Offering an aggressive and unique motorsport sound from your 5-cylinder turbo engine with complete unrestricted airflow for unmatched maximum power. Enjoy proven performance gains and leading features such as bolt-on direct fit install, long-life construction, cast sections, and amazing sound.
Your 2.5T engine is capable of supercar level horsepower on the stock engine and turbo reliably with a Stage 2 Tune alone! However, the factory-installed downpipe is designed for maximum emissions and economy, not for power. This design is riddled with small piping, harsh bends, and power-sucking restrictions that limit your power gains to only Stage 1 Tune levels. In order to correct that, a true performance downpipe is required to open up the exhaust flow and allow the turbo to spin freely!
MAXIMUM FLOW DOWNPIPE
IE engineers set out to design the ultimate downpipe option for the 8V RS3 and 8S TTRS chassis by employing leading-edge development technology along with highly specialized cast manufacturing. Using cast sections this allowed our engineers to design specialized shapes into the downpipe itself that lets it conform and fit into very tight spaces while retaining its large size and maximized flow rates. The design is so specialized that 3D scanning was used to build a digital model of the chassis to design allowing us to build shapes down to the millimeter. This design is just not possible using traditional stainless steel pipes and bends found in most exhaust manufacturing.
Bolting this downpipe onto your Audi along with other matching bolt-ons and an IE Stage 2 Tune results in up to 577 horsepower! You can take your RS3 or TTRS from a sporty driver to a powerful monster in a single weekend. Downpipe requires Stage 2 Tune for a complete installation.
By employing a high-flow metal matrix catalytic converter, horsepower loss is almost non-existent for track days and drag events while keeping unpleasant smells and increased emissions to a minimum.
This downpipe holds the seal of IE quality and has been manufactured to last as long as you own the vehicle and beyond. Constructed from 304 stainless steel and expertly tig welded for incredible reliability. The cast and CNC machined turbo flange is thick to prevent leaks or warping at the turbo while a quality flex section works to allow normal movement between the chassis and engine without adding strain to the downpipe.
This downpipe kit bolts on directly to either an IE Catback or stock catback (with adapter) with no permanent modifications or alterations to the vehicle. The removal of the factory downpipe is a very long process and is only recommended to be performed by a professional. DIY is not recommended for most of these products.
