Milltek 3" Cast Downpipe with 200-cell race cat for the VW Golf MK7 and MK7.5 GTI, Jetta MK7 and MK7.5 GLI, and Seat Leon Cupra 300, non-OPF/GPF models. This downpipe fits the OE cat-back only. It does not fit Milltek cat-back systems. The equivalent downpipe for a Milltek cat-back is SSXVW388.
Cast stainless body with 76.20mm (3.0") mandrel-bent T304L tubing, CNC-formed flanges and hand-finished welds. The 200-cell race cat drops cell density well below the 500 to 600 cell OEM substrate, cutting backpressure ahead of the system. Uses OEM hangers and mounting points, no modification required. Stage 2 ECU remap recommended to realize the gains.
