MOTORSPORT SOUND
IE’s unique thick-wall investment castings produce an aggressive, drone-free exhaust note without the “tinny” sound typical on most full stainless body aftermarket options. Enjoy not only a louder exhaust but one with improved engine and turbo notes that will deliver miles of smiles.
PERFECT FIT
The B9 3.0T hot-v style engine has a unique center-mounted turbo with a large downpipe that quickly splits into twin-sided exhaust sections. This challenging configuration requires exacting alignment to avoid install hassles, rattling, rubbing, and exhaust leaks. IE engineers utilize advanced 3D scanning technology and rapid prototyping to guarantee a flow-maximized design that exceeds even the factory fitment.
200 CPSI CATALYTIC CONVERTER
IE’s downpipe includes a high-flow 200 CPSI catalytic converter. This performance CAT allows for full and unrestricted power from Stage 2 ECU tunes and hybrid turbo upgrades while reducing emissions output and eliminating unwanted smells and bumper stains found on cat-less designs.
Catalytic converter warranty is only available for cusotmers running IE performance ECU software.
HYBRID TURBO READY
The stock downpipe becomes a significant restriction when upgrading to a larger hybrid turbo. IE’s cast downpipe is a direct-fit to available upgraded turbochargers on the market and will allow total horsepower, torque, and spool potential from your turbocharger investment.
IE’s B9 S4 & S5 intake system, turbo inlet pipe, and downpipe are hybrid optimized, making the installation of popular turbo upgrades an easy bolt-in process.
DYNO TESTING
Real-world power numbers are achieved using our in-house dyno cells to verify the efficiency of the downpipe design. Dyno testing performed in controlled conditions on a hybrid turbo equipped B9 S4 resulted in consistent and significant power gains of 45HP & 41FT-LBS to the wheels!
