However, the factory installed downpipe is designed for maximum emissions and economy, not for power. This design is riddled with small piping, harsh bends, and power sucking restrictions that limit your power gains to only Stage 1 Tune levels. In order to correct that, a true performance downpipe is required to open up the exhaust flow and allow the turbo to spin freely!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shg-c  shg-align-left\" id=\"s-167a0a95-0a10-4fd6-a504-fc514d5bc0e1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shogun-heading-component\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMAXIMUM FLOW DOWNPIPE\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"s-454301d6-919b-4112-aa05-83d9daec37ff\" class=\"shg-c\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-col-grid-mode-on=\"\" class=\"shg-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shg-c-lg-6 shg-c-md-6 shg-c-sm-6 shg-c-xs-12\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shg-c\" id=\"s-0c55d56f-009c-4e9a-a843-22158dc6bae1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"shg-rich-text shg-theme-text-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIE engineers set out to design the ultimate downpipe option for the 8V RS3 chassis by employing leading-edge development technology along with highly specialized cast manufacturing. By using cast sections this allowed our engineers to design specialized shapes into the downpipe itself that lets it conform and fit into very tight spaces while retaining it's large size and maximized flow rates. The design is so specialized that 3D scanning was used to build a digital model of the chassis to design in allowing us to build shapes down to the millimeter. This design is just not possible using traditional stainless steel pipes and bends found in most exhaust manufacturing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBolting this downpipe onto your Audi along with other matching bolt-ons and an IE Stage 2 Tune results in up to 577 horsepower!
