VW Polo GTI AW Mk6 2.0 TSI (2019+) 3" (76mm) Stainless Downpipe/Front Pipe – 200 Cell Sports Cat or Decat – OPF/GPF/PPF Delete – EA888 Turbo Outlet Pipe – Stage 1/2 Performance Exhaust Upgrade

Transform your AW Polo GTI soundtrack and throttle response

Unlock the true character of the 2.0 turbo EA888 with a larger-bore front pipe that replaces the restrictive turbo outlet section and petrol particulate filter. Designed for OPF/GPF-equipped models from 2019 onwards, this upgrade is available in two configurations: a 200 cell high flow catalyst or a catless race pipe. Both options deliver a harder-hitting exhaust note, faster turbo spool and a cleaner, freer-revving top end that pairs brilliantly with software.

Why enthusiasts choose this front pipe

• Bigger flow path: 3 inch 76.2 mm stainless steel pipework from the turbo to the centre section for reduced back pressure and improved performance potential
• Two choices to suit your build: 4.5 inch 114.3 mm 200 cell sports catalyst for high-flow road-style setups, or a decat race pipe for track-only cars
• Sharper soundtrack: deeper tone, crisper upshifts and a more engaging drive without the factory OPF dulling the experience
• Tune-ready foundation: ideal for Stage 1 and Stage 2 calibrations, giving the EA888 the breathing room it deserves
• Quality construction: precision-made stainless system with all required fittings and gaskets supplied for installation, except the turbo gasket
