It also improves turbo spool on your 2.0T, allowing your GTI to hit boost sooner at lower rpm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWHY WOULD YOU WANT A CATTED DOWNPIPE? Great question! There are multiple reasons why you would want a catted downpipe for your GTI versus a catless downpipe system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePASSING EMISSIONS: One of the biggest benefits of a catted downpipe is that it increases your chances of passing emissions.* The catalytic converter in the ARM GTI catted downpipe is significantly less restrictive than the OEM catalytic converter, allowing it to increase the power of your 2.0T while still going to work on burning up those exhaust gases that don't get along with the environment and the EPA. NO FOUL SMELLS: Well, at least from your exhaust. The catted downpipe destroys most of the elements in the exhaust gas commonly associated with catless downpipes which produce strong exhaust fumes. If you've owned a vehicle with a catless exhaust you likely know the odor associated with a catless downpipe. The ARM GTI catted downpipe eliminates the smell of many exhaust fumes above that which you would experience from the OEM downpipe. EXHAUST SOUND: Many enthusiasts prefer the sound of a catted downpipe over the standard catless downpipe. Having the catalytic converter in the downpipe of your GTI reduces some of the high-pitch rasp commonly associated with catless systems. It almost acts similar to a resonator in the way it effects the acoustics of the exhaust note.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain up to +20whp \/ 30wtq\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved Exhaust Note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaster Turbo Spool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits CBFA and CCTA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull 3\" stainless steel construction with smooth bends for improved exhaust flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\" to 2.25\" reducer to allow it to mate up perfectly to the stock exhaust system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eARM Catted Downpipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStock Cat-Back Adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting Bracket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware \u0026amp; Gasket Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWarranty \u0026amp; Off-Road Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery ARM Motorsports product is backed by a lifetime warranty which is automatically issued at the time of purchase.
