Overview
The factory cast iron exhaust manifold on the EA113 2.0 TFSI restricts flow and builds significant heat. This stainless steel replacement provides improved flow geometry through the manifold, reducing restriction at the first point in the exhaust path and supporting improved turbo response.
Why Upgrade?
- Improved exhaust flow geometry over the factory cast iron manifold
- Reduced restriction from the cylinder head to the turbocharger
- Stainless steel construction runs cooler and is more durable than cast iron
- Improved turbo response from reduced pre-turbo exhaust restriction
Engineering Focus
Fabricated from stainless steel — lighter than the factory cast iron unit and with improved port geometry for better flow from each cylinder to the turbocharger inlet.
