The IE Catted Performance Downpipe for your VW Jetta and GLI 2.0T Gen 3 engine delivers a massive amount of exhaust flow offering a big power increase when matched with a Stage 2 Tune. Enjoy more power and a sport-tuned motorsport sound all wrapped up in a reliable construction that will last!

What does a performance downpipe do?

The factory installed downpipe in your Jetta or GLI is a very small diameter and causes high back pressure holding back the full power potential of your turbocharger.  upgrading your 2013.5+ Jetta 2.0T ECU software to Stage 2 will require you to remove that factory downpipe restriction with a performance downpipe. 

IE Performance downpipe upgrade

Unlocking those Stage 2 and beyond power numbers with an IE Downpipe guarantees maximum flow and performance along with a perfect fit and reliable operation. IE engineers designed your downpipe in-house using the latest in digital scanning technology. This tech allows us to scan the entire vehicle into a 3D model which ensures that there is proper clearance and that all mounting points are in the correct location. This downpipe has been manufactured with factory style flex sections that allow for engine and chassis movement without wearing down or failing like many lesser quality flex sections found on most aftermarket pieces. Every downpipe is expertly welded from 304 stainless steel offering a life-long product that brings power and speed to the table for years to come.  

High-Flow Catalytic Converter

IE’s performance downpipe includes a high-flow 200 cell per inch metal matrix catalyst for superior performance. Because the matrix web is thinner, this allows for a much higher flow and maximum unrestricted power while also reducing emissions and unwanted unpleasant smells.
