It is made from 3-inch (3\u2033) seamless T304 stainless steel pipes, allowing less turbulent exhaust gas flow from the turbocharger and wastegate. The larger diameter helps the turbocharger spool up faster and increases power and torque throughout the rev range.<\/p>\n<p>The downpipe is 100% TIG-welded and includes stainless steel mounting hardware and clamps. A removable 60 mm diameter reducer allows connection to the factory exhaust system clamp. The exhaust sound is improved without adding unwanted droning in the passenger compartment.<\/p>\n<h3>Product details<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>T304 seamless stainless steel pipes<\/li>\n<li>T304 stainless steel flanges<\/li>\n<li>100% TIG-welded<\/li>\n<li>T304 stainless steel threaded fittings for lambda sensors<\/li>\n<li>Stainless steel clamps<\/li>\n<li>Removable 60 mm diameter reducer for the factory exhaust system clamp<\/li>\n<li>Weight: 13.61 kg<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Important:<\/strong> Stage 2 software is required to prevent the engine warning light from coming on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Suitable for:<\/strong> Audi Q3 I (8U), VW Tiguan I (5N).<\/p>\n<h3>Approval<\/h3>\n<p>This part has no T\u00dcV certification (ABE, TTG or Teilegutachten).<\/p>\n<h3>Compatible vehicles (manufacturer data)<\/h3>\n<table class=\"tc-fitment-table\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Vehicle<\/th>\n<th>Chassis<\/th>\n<th>Years<\/th>\n<th>Engine<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Audi Q3<\/td>\n<td>\u2014<\/td>\n<td>2011\u20132021<\/td>\n<td>\u2014<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Volkswagen TIGUAN<\/td>\n<td>\u2014<\/td>\n<td>2009\u20132017<\/td>\n<td>\u2014<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><em>Before ordering, check that the product matches your vehicle (model, year and engine).
