Compatibility

• Volkswagen Golf 7 GTI 2.0 petrol 5G chassis 2012-2017
• Including GTI Performance Pack, Clubsport and Clubsport S

Why enthusiasts choose this system

• Free flowing 76.2 mm 3 inch pipework for improved gas velocity and throttle response
• TIG welded, mandrel bent stainless construction for durability and a precision fit
• From turbo outlet to rear section turbo‑back layout replaces the front section, factory catalyst, mid section and rear silencer
• Choice of resonated for refined cruising or non‑resonated for a louder, sportier note
• Tailpipe options in 4 inch 101.6 mm inverted slash cut polished stainless or Blackout ceramic coated finish

Sound and driveability

Expect a deeper, more purposeful tone with that crisp turbocharged character GTI owners love. Non‑resonated cat‑back measured around 85.2 dB at a stationary 4,000 rpm test, while the resonated version registered approximately 83.5 dB, keeping cabin refinement in check on longer journeys.

Quality you can see and feel

Engineered with tight tolerances, clean mandrel bends and neat TIG welds for consistent flow and a show‑grade finish. Clever design reduces weight versus the OE assembly, helping sharpen the car’s playful character.

Configuration options

• Sports catalyst high‑flow option replaces an OE emissions device. Not EC homologated and may not meet local road‑use emissions rules.
• De‑cat option is for motorsport and off‑road use only worldwide.
• Resonated mid section for subtle refinement or non‑resonated for maximum presence.

We rate it highly

We have fitted and run this setup on customer cars and feedback has been excellent. Sharper response, a rich performance tone and a smart rear end finish make it a brilliant upgrade for fast road or track day use.
