Scorpion Exhaust UK Decat Downpipe for Golf GTI MK7.
**USING THE DROP-DOWN MENU, SELECT IF YOU WOULD LIKE FITTING OR NOT.**
Feel the power of the free-flowing decat system. If you’re going to upgrade your exhaust system do it properly. This Scorpion Exhaust free-flowing decat exhaust for the MK7 Golf GTI will improve the performance and tone of the exhaust.
The stock downpipe on the Volkswagen Golf GTI has a catalytic converter that filters the fumes as they travel from the engine. The downside to this is that it restricts the engine’s capabilities and causes back pressure on the engine. Swapping out the restrictive downpipe for the Scorpion decat downpipe removes the restriction and creates a high-flowing exhaust system. As well as all that due to the removal of the OEM downpipe the fuel economy should increase as the engine isn’t having to work as hard to produce the same power.
The removal of the catalyst unleashes the turbocharged engine’s full potential and allows you to squeeze every last BHP from this hot hatchback’s front wheels. You’re going to need bigger brakes for this performance car!
Sports Cat vs Decat?
If you are looking to upgrade your downpipe exhaust then you will have come to the debate of whether to go for a Sports Cat or a Decat. In the Sports Cat, there is a modified catalyst that filters out emissions while still providing a much higher flow of air than the stock system. Due to the Sports Cat having a 200 cell Catalyst, it is more likely to pass an MOT inspection than a decat.
On the other hand, the Decat is a straight pipe with no restrictions. This allows for the most free-flowing exhaust system, getting the most power from your engine and raising the noise of the exhaust to its potential. The downside to using a decat is that it will likely fail your MOT as it will not meet the emissions level required. The way to bypass this is to either refit the stock downpipe for the MOT or find a friendly MOT tester who will pass you regardless.
