The factory pipe fails to provide optimal flow in a performance build and is manufactured from a hard plastic that can lead to cracks and leaks in heavy boost conditions. IE's Turbo Outlet Pipe takes full advantage of all available space with a unique shape to maximize airflow. This optimized design results in a much improved 13.44% increase in flow over stock!

CNC HOSE ENDS

Most aftermarket charge pipe designs bead-roll the end of the thin-walled aluminum tube for the hose connection creating an easily crushed tube when tightening clamps leading to boost leaks. Our turbo outlet pipe features thick-wall CNC machined aluminum ends TIG welded onto the pipe with grip-lock ribbing and a true radius end. This seemingly small detail provides a crush-proof and leak-free connection for your boost hoses.

Using advanced 3D scanning and modeling software, IE engineers made sure to include all factory mount points on our turbo outlet design to ensure no parts are left hanging or rubbing. These TIG-welded brackets retain all the factory harness, hose, and clip mounts for a proper factory-like quality install.

IE turbo outlet pipe installs without any permanent modifications. The installation process can be done with basic tools but does require removing the belly pan, plastic mount clips, and the radiator fan. Installing our IE turbo muffler delete on GTI & A3 engines involves the same process, so upgrading both simultaneously is highly suggested.
