Overview
The EA113 and EA888 Gen2 factory Downpipe carries a restrictive pre-catalyst that limits exhaust flow. This high-flow catted Downpipe replaces it with a less restrictive unit — improving turbo spool and exhaust flow on MK6 Golf R and A3 8P applications.
- High-flow catalyst significantly less restrictive than the factory pre-cat or OPF
- Improved exhaust flow and turbo response versus the OEM Downpipe
- Retains catalytic converter — better suited to road-registered vehicles
- Stainless Steel construction for durability
Engineering Focus
SS304 Stainless Steel with high-flow catalyst. Designed for EA113 and EA888 Gen2 Quattro applications on the MK6 Golf R and A3 8P.
Driving Experience
The MK5/MK6 and 8P platform's factory Downpipe was built around a much milder factory tune than most owners are running today. This kit clears the pre-cat restriction without giving up the catalyst, so the car stays road-legal and gains the flow and tone the EA113/EA888 Gen2 has been holding back the whole time.

Fitment
Compatible with:
- VW Golf GTI MK5 (2006–2009) / MK6 (2010–2013) — 2.0 TSI EA888 Gen1/Gen2
- VW Golf R MK6 (2010–2013) — 2.0 TSI EA888 Gen2
- Audi S3 8P (2007–2012) — 2.0 TFSI EA888 Gen1/Gen2

Note: the MK5/MK6 Golf and Audi 8P share the same EA888 Gen1/Gen2 platform — same engine bay, same flange, same result. This kit does not fit MK7/MK8 Golf or Audi 8V/8Y platform vehicles, which use a later-generation engine and different fitment. Verify your specific model, year and drivetrain before ordering, or message us your rego/VIN and we'll confirm it for you.
