The stock downpipe is built with a dense catalyst that hinders exhaust flow on your 1.8T engine, causing higher back-pressure, increasing turbo lag and causing your turbo to work harder. Replacing your OEM downpipe with the ARM MK7 Golf 1.8T Downpipe will significantly improve exhaust flow, reducing the back-pressure generated by your turbocharger. The result of the increased exhaust flow is faster turbo spool, increased power and torque, and a nice improvement in exhaust note.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, the improved exhaust flow will allow you to run increased boost targets found with Stage 2+ tuning software. Attempting to run Stage 2+ tuning files over 25 psi with the stock downpipe can put excessive stress on your turbocharger and is not recommended. Most tuners require an upgraded downpipe to run their more aggressive tunes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade of TIG welded T304 grade stainless steel, the ARM MK7 Golf 1.8T Downpipe is designed to fit your MK7 Golf 1.8T perfectly. The ARM MK7 Golf 1.8T Downpipe is constructed of a single piece design. This solid-unit construction eliminates the exhaust leaks and installation issues commonly found with it's multi-piece downpipe counterparts. The laser-cut mounting bracket and CNC machined mounting prongs make for a precise fitment to your stock downpipe mounting points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ARM MK7 Golf 1.8T Downpipe kit comes with both a 60mm reducer to connect to the stock exhaust system, and a straight 3.00 Inch adapter to connect to upgraded cat-back exhaust systems. This connection utilizes a CNC machined v-band system for connecting between the downpipe and adapter of your choice. The v-band is a superior connection type compared to a slip-fit or bolt on connection as it maintains a more study and reliable seal between the two ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ARM MK7 Golf 1.8T Catless Downpipe comes with a single 4.00 Inch Resonator as standard on our catless downpipe to improve exhaust sound. This resonator is a straight through design, it does not block exhaust flow as the resonator is only around the downpipe, not inside of it. If you're looking for a catted downpipe, we offer a catted version which incorporates a 200 Cell High-Flow Catalyst in place of the 4.00 Inch Resonator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ARM MK7 Golf 1.8T Downpipe incorporates a stainless steel flex section between the turbo and mid-pipe mounting point. The addition of this flex section reduces tension on the turbocharger caused from torsion during hard acceleration, cornering, and braking. The ARM MK7 Downpipe gives you an immediate improvement in turbo spool, power and torque. Pairing the ARM MK7 Downpipe with a proper tune will yield gains up to 40 whp and 74 wtq on the stock IS12 turbocharger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Increased Power and Torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Faster Turbo Spool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Improved Exhaust Note.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Lifetime Warranty - Every ARM Motorsports product is backed by a lifetime warranty which is automatically issued at the time of purchase.

Upgrading to the ARM MK7 Intake allows your 2.0T to produce more power and torque throughout the RPM range, especially at higher RPM. The ARM MK7 Intake is ideal for tuned IS20, IS38, and upgraded turbo equipped 2.0T engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ARM MK7 GTI \/ GOLF R Intake features a class-leading 4.00 Inch inlet size at the air filter to maximize airflow for even the most demanding builds. The ARM intake tube is built as a single piece of 6-layer reinforced silicone for a seamless transition to the 2.75 Inch stock turbo inlet or the ARM MK7 Turbo Inlet. The solid construction of the inlet tube allows it to maintain its geometry during the most aggressive driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of the ARM MK7 GTI \/ Golf R Intake will open up the sound of your turbo and enhance the intake sounds of your 2.0T engine. You can expect to hear significantly increased volume of your turbo spool on acceleration, as well as a very audible venting of air when letting off the throttle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncluded with the ARM MK7 GTI \/ GOLF R Intake kit is our heat shield finished in textured black, and designed to fit the factory air duct perfectly. This is ideal if you plan to run a modified factory air duct. The connecting pipe between the air filter and intake pipe is welded into the heat shield to allow for a seamless design, minimizing areas for engine bay heat to sneak past the heat shield, keeping cool air and engine bay heat separated as much as possible. The connection pipe has a tap for reinstallation of the factory vacuum line. The heat shield is complete with soft rubber trim around the upper edge to create a snug seal with the hood, minimizing exposure to engine bay heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe air filter in the ARM MK7 Intake Kit utilizes an inverted design to maximize surface area. Combining the inverted filter design with the massive 5.50 Inch base gives you over 300 cubic inches of filter surface area. The ARM MK7 Intake comes complete with an integrated SAI Filter which installs directly into the heat shield, allowing access to cooler air for the secondary air intake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Gain up to +15 HP \/ +15 TQ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Improves Turbo Spool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Increases Intake Sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Integrated Heat Shield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Massive 4.00 Inch Intake Pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Ideal for Tuned Engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Supports Hybrid\/Upgraded Turbos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* SAI Filter Included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* 60 Minutes Installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* ARM Dry Air Filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* ARM Reinforced Inlet Tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* ARM Textured Black Heat Shield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* ARM SAI Filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Mounting Hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Lifetime Warranty - Every ARM Motorsports product is backed by a lifetime warranty which is automatically issued at the time of purchase.
