Precise fitment and high-quality materials make this a high-quality product. The flange at the turbocharger outlet has been designed without a step at the transition. Optimising the diameter, pipe routing and catalytic converter, where selected, significantly reduces the load on the turbocharger. Lower exhaust back pressure and reduced thermal stress provide a noticeable increase in torque and power, together with earlier turbocharger response. At the same time, service life is extended.<\/p>\n<p>When combined with an EGO-X exhaust system, the downpipe can be made without a flange with reducer if required. A 20 cm long 3-inch sleeve is supplied, allowing a continuous 76 mm diameter.<\/p>\n<h3>Technical details<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Plug\u2019n\u2019Play solution \u2013 perfect fitment and simple replacement of the original part<\/li>\n<li>76 mm \/ 3\u2033 diameter<\/li>\n<li>Selectable catalytic converter options: 100-cell, 200-cell, 200-cell Bull-X EOBD and 200-cell HJS (without ECE approval)<\/li>\n<li>High-quality materials<\/li>\n<li>TIG-welded stainless steel construction<\/li>\n<li>Made in Germany<\/li>\n<li>Flow-optimised design for increased performance<\/li>\n<li>Improved response and enhanced turbocharger service life<\/li>\n<li>Efficient evacuation of exhaust gases<\/li>\n<li>No obstructive edges at the transitions<\/li>\n<li>Designed and developed using flow simulation, then tested on a test bench<\/li>\n<li>No more heat build-up at the turbocharger, reducing thermal stress on the turbo<\/li>\n<li>Improved turbocharger response and increased performance<\/li>\n<li>Richer exhaust note, particularly when combined with a sports exhaust system<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Road use:<\/strong> This product is intended for motorsport use only.
