The perfect way to unleash hidden horsepower in a modern turbocharged engine is to upgrade the restrictive factory downpipe with a smoother, higher flowing unit. This is a great way to increase performance and add a sophisticated growl to the exhaust note. Ideal performance is achieved through expelling exhaust gasses at maximum velocity through a larger diameter, freer flowing downpipe due to smoother bend radius, larger internal diameter and a less-restrictive catalytic converter.

Our V5 slotted rotor design provides excellent heat dissipation thanks to reduced pad out-gassing, meaning reduced brake fade. Slotting also reduces glazing, meaning consistently increased overall stopping power. Our 5th generation slotted brake rotor also features a sleek black zinc coating for a clean, contemporary look as well as superior corrosion protection versus an uncoated or black oxide coated rotor. Our V5 cross drilled and slotted rotor design offers even greater heat dissipation and improved wet-weather performance as compared with a slotted rotor, making it an ideal choice for high-performance driving enthusiasts. Our 5th generation slotted brake rotor also features a sleek black zinc coating for a clean, contemporary look as well as superior corrosion protection versus an uncoated or black oxide coated rotor. Pick the perfect set of pads, ranging from OEM replacement style to higher performance pad options.

If you live in an apartment or you can't get your car up on ramps or stands but want to change your oil, then this is exactly what you need. This tool enables you to drain from the dipstick tube and refill like normal, without getting under the car or fighting with drain plugs. Not only is it convenient it's also efficient: most cars leave oil in the pan when being drained from the plug�sometimes up to a half quart. The extractor, however, can reach this remaining broken down fluid to make room for even more uncontaminated lubricant. Extract the extra work from the job.

The factory radiator found in the VW MQB application was engineered to only support stock power outputs and last within a set service life. All too often when more power is demanded the cooling system becomes stressed and can shed only so much heat, in so much time. The ECS Tuning in-house engineered Performance Aluminum Radiator utilizes a larger volume, triple-pass aluminum heat exchanger that is hand TIG-welded to 5052 aluminum end tanks and polished to perfection. Featuring a 45% increase in overall volume compared to stock, this is a direct replacement radiator that will outperform and outlast the OE unit!

The ECS Tuning Rear Chassis Braces bridge the gap between the mounting points of the trailing arm pockets and brace the weak rear tunnel areas. These triangulated bolt-on bars help to increase structural rigidity of the floor and chassis area which limits body roll. Beautifully powder coated your choice of wrinkle red or wrinkle black to offer both good looks and durability.
