Integrated Engineering set their engineers free to design the best downpipe available for the Audi 2.5 TFSI platform.

Introducing the highly designed and all new IE Downpipe for Audi RS3. Deliver up to 577HP with a matching IE Stage 2 Tune and turn those 5 cylinders into all-out power monsters.

The massive 3.5" size and cast sections that sound amazing and allow for maximum flow. They have employed a removable high-flow CAT that keeps down on unwanted smells without losing power. Constructed from stainless 304 steel and expertly tig welded for a lifetime of trouble-free service.

STOCK DOWNPIPES ROB HORSEPOWER

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 chassis by employing leading-edge development technology along with highly specialized cast manufacturing. By 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 it's 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 in 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.

POWER GAINS

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 from a sporty driver to a power monster in a single weekend. Downpipe requires Stage 2 Tune for complete installation.

REMOVABLE HIGH FLOW CATALYTIC CONVERTER

By employing a high flow metal matrix catalytic converter, horsepower loss is almost non-existent while keeping unpleasant smells and increased emissions to a minimum. However, the CAT section can be completely removed and replaced with a straight exhaust pipe for track days or drag events if you wish. 

LONG-LIFE MANUFACTURING

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.
