WANT IT LOUDER?
Adding an iE catback exhaust system to your MK8 adds an instant punch of sound, fun, and character, but there is more.

If you find yourself wanting, convert your iE catback into a true turbo-back with iE's 3" free-flowing downpipe and embrace the rowdy
PROCORE ADVANTAGE
The in-house engineered ProCore Catalyst features iE's own tri-core design with a specialized coating, enabling it to pass vehicle readiness monitors. An advanced molecular bonded wash process applies the precious metal coatings to ensure long-life reliability. Fully release the entire exhaust symphony from your 2.0T without triggering that annoying check engine light.
ELIMINATE RESTRICTIONS
No check engine light does not equal reduced power. The full 3" piping and large 5" 200CPSI CAT maintain optimal flow to support any power output up to large and hybrid turbochargers. Your iE ProCore downpipe will pass vehicle readiness monitors and allow total and complete power, torque, and spool potential from your hardware and tuning upgrade investments.
CUTTING-EDGE MANUFACTURING
The advanced catalyst is a new-age design that uses a high-tech process to bond rare and precious metals to meet or exceed emissions output standards without restricting flow. The quality doesn't end there as the downpipe is constructed of T304L stainless steel, investment casting for smooth transitions, and hand TIG welded using precise fixtures and tooling for a seamless, leak-free build.
THE PERFECT FIT EVERY TIME
Advanced 3D scanning tools and cutting-edge software provide iE's engineers with a high-resolution digital model of your engine. This data is then used to maximize the downpipe size for flow and ensure perfect and factory-like fitment.
