AUDI 8P A3 3" CATTED DOWNPIPE
The ARM 8P A3 Catted Downpipe boosts power up to +20 whp and +30 wtq and improves turbo spool on your 2.0T, so your A3 hits boost sooner and lower in the rev range.
Why a catted downpipe?
- Better emissions outcome: the 200-cell sport catalyst is far less restrictive than OEM while still burning off exhaust gases, improving your chances of passing emissions.*
- No foul smells: it eliminates most of the fumes associated with catless downpipes.
- Exhaust sound: the catalyst tames the high-pitched rasp of catless systems, acting much like a resonator.
Highlights
- Gains of up to +20 whp / 30 wtq.
- Improved exhaust note and faster turbo spool.
- Stainless steel; fits CBFA and CCTA.
Construction
Full 3" stainless with smooth bends. The upper section has a CNC-machined turbo flange and a flex joint to relieve stress; a 200-cell sport catalyst sits in the downpipe-to-catback section. Fits both CBFA and CCTA 2.0T variants, and includes a 3"-to-2.25" reducer to mate to the stock catback (or run a 3" aftermarket exhaust for a full 3" turbo-back). Will fit a K04 turbo upgrade.
Fitment (2.0T)
Audi 8P A3 FWD; VW CC, Golf V, Golf VI, Jetta V, Jetta VI (Gen 1), Passat B6.
