DESIGN DETAILS

BOLD, REFINED, ENRICHED

The popular 2015-2020 VW Golf R and Audi S3 is begging to be unleashed with the precision-engineered iE Catback Exhaust System. This bolt-on upgrade delivers a unique deep rumble at low revs and an aggressive roar at high RPMs. Our proprietary DroneTrap technology eliminates unwanted drone, leaving only the perfect exhaust rumble. The factory valve electronics integrate seamlessly, giving you full control to switch between subtle and rowdy modes. Finished with quad 4” slash-cut tips for true motorsport style.


OVERSIZED QUAD TIPS

MAKE A STATEMENT

Make your Golf R or S3 stand out from the crowd with our quad oversized 4" exhaust tips. The aggressive slash-cut design and sleek brushed finish deliver a distinctive motorsport look bound to turn heads. Depth adjustability allows you to customize the tips to match your unique style.

iE's advanced DroneTrap technology captures the pulse waves responsible for the 2.0T engine's exhaust note and draws them into a mathematically tuned resonator. The internal port is engineered to resonate these waves against each other in a process that selectively cancels out those responsible for annoying drones. The remaining waves produce the deep and enriched exhaust acoustics enthusiasts love.

BUILT TO ENDURE

QUALITY IS IN THE DETAILS

iE’s catback exhaust is built for sound, durability, and reliability. Made from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel, it resists corrosion, with hand TIG-welded joints ensuring lasting strength. A stamped multi-wall muffler prevents warping, while reinforced hangers keep everything securely mounted. Bridged piping boosts strength and disperses weight to reduce stress and vibration. Inspired by high-end OE designs, wide-width stretch clamps keep every connection tight and leak-free.

HEAR IT IN ACTION

YOUR STEREO IS OBSOLETE

SOUND CONTROL

SEAMLESS FUNCTIONALITY

Control your exhaust volume through the factory drive select controls from your MMI system. Select comfort to drive around your suburb like a civilized neighbor, or trigger Sport/Dynamic mode to release that boosted roar.

EXHAUST VALVES

REFINED TO ROWDY

In Comfort/Normal mode, the valves stay closed, routing all exhaust through the center-mounted muffler to reduce volume while keeping a sporty tone. Switch to Sport/Dynamic mode to open the valves, bypassing the muffler through twin 2.5" pipes for a loud, performance rumble.

INSTALL DETAILS

INSTALL GUIDE

AVERAGE INSTALLATION TIME: 1 HOUR

Install your new Catback Exhaust kit without any permanent modifications or installation hassles. The install process is straightforward with basic tools, however, an autolift is highly recommended.

ADVANCED R&D

ENGINEERING THE PERFECT FIT

3D scanning and cutting-edge software give our engineers a high-resolution digital model of the VW/Audi MQB chassis. This data allows us to maximize exhaust flow and optimize every inch of available space, ensuring a perfect fit with no rattles or rubbing.

Seemingly without competition in the market

Install: Very straightforward, although the 1-1.5 hour estimate is very aggressive if, like me, you're doing the install on a garage floor with only two jack stands. Highly recommend an exhaust hanger removal tool, to the extent I might even call it a necessary item, and this is a California car with less than 40k miles so on the easier end of removing hangers. Overall, it was consistent progress with two pairs of hands and everything fit exactly as expected. No complaints at all and had a really nice time doing this install with my dad.

Sound: This is the reason I bought this exhaust. I watched countless clips of various exhausts and frankly was not super satisfied with any of the clips the various makers put out there. IE's sounded great but their in-cabin clips were limited.

I knew I wanted a valved exhaust, and after discussing with friends in the industry I was narrowed down to MBRP and IE for quality reasons. MBRP's tips also looked great with the CF, but the clips I saw/heard of the upshifts were problematically loud for me. I wanted sound, but recognizing the limits of how this engine can sound, it was way too much.

I'm happy to say this exhaust absolutely accomplishes what I was looking for. In Drive/ with the valves closed, the car sounds about like how it does with Soundaktor on in Sport. There is functionally no drone at highway cruising speeds with the valves closed, which is an unbelievable achievement by the IE team. Even with the valves opened, the exhaust…
