The iE ProCore Downpipe for the Audi B9 A4 delivers an improved exhaust note with a massive increase in exhaust flow. Our unique in-house-engineered 4.75" 200 CPI catalytic converter channels substantial flow to support beyond Stage 2 tuning and upgraded turbos. The specialty ProCore CAT design includes rare and precious metal coatings that clean and limit emissions output to align with factory ECU requirements. so that you can upgrade without the check engine light.
FEATURES
- ProCore catalyst -No check engine light
- High-flow design -Supports stage 2 & hybrid turbo power
- Increases sound -Full and enriched exhaust note
- Bolt-on direct fit -No cutting, no welding, no hassle
- High quality -30$ Stainless steel, TIG welded, & investment casting
THE PROCORE ADVANTAGE
iE's in-house engineered ProCore Catalyst design features our own specialized coating that filters and cleans exhaust gasses instead of a denser flow-killing cell count. This coating process aligns with factory emissions output, enabling it to pass vehicle readiness monitors without triggering a check engine light. An advanced molecular bonded wash process applies the precious metal coatings to ensure long-life reliability. Whether you're looking to improve the exhaust note from your A4 or building a big power, big boost setup, enjoy your exhaust without the annoying check engine light.
HIGH-FLOW DESIGN
No check engine light does not equal reduced power. The 4.75" 200 CPI CAT maintains optimal flow to support substantial power gains up to large and hybrid turbochargers. Your iE ProCore downpipe will pass vehicle readiness monitors and allow total and complete power, torque, and spool potential from your hardware and tuning upgrade.
ADVANCED ENGINEERING
Advanced 3D scanning tools and cutting-edge software provide our engineers with a high-resolution digital model of Audi's unique B9 2.0T engine. This data is then used to maximize the downpipe size for flow and ensure the perfect and factory-like fitment.
CUTTING-EDGE MANUFACTURING
The stock A4 downpipe becomes a significant restriction when upgrading beyond Stage 1 power. iE's ProCore downpipe is a direct fit to stock and hybrid turbos and stock or iE Catback Exhaust Systems, giving you access to the complete horsepower, torque, and spool potential from your build.
POWER TESTING
Real-world power numbers are achieved using our in-house dyno cells to verify the efficiency of the downpipe design. Dyno testing performed in controlled conditions on a full Stage 2 equipped B9 A4 (Procore Downpipe, iE Intake System, iE FDS Intercooler) resulted in consistent and significant power gains of up to 126HP & 183TQ over stock!
The above power gains are a result of various design details:
- The 4.75" size massively improves exhaust flow.
- The increased size of the downpipe body and smooth transition into the exhaust quickly evacuate exhaust gases away from the turbine wheel, improving turbocharger speed and efficiency.
- The thick-wall investment cast body reduces radiant heat keeping the engine bay and charge air cooler.
INSTALLATION
With the right tools, installing your downpipe kit is straightforward—there are no welding, cutting, permanent modifications, or installation hassles.
Average install time: around 2-3 hours
