Golf GTI and Golf R parts are listed by generation and chassis code: Mk4 (1J), Mk5 (1K), Mk6 (5K), Mk7 and Mk7.5 (5G/AU), and Mk8/Mk8.5 (CD). Check the generation shown in the product title against your vehicle's build.

Many Golf R and GTI items share fitment with Audi S3 (8V/8Y), SQ2, CUPRA Leon and SEAT models on the same MQB platform, so a single part number may list several vehicles.

Note whether your car is fitted with a GPF (petrol particulate filter), as GPF-back and cat-back systems are not interchangeable. Pipe diameter (63.5mm, 70mm, 76mm or 80mm) is shown in each title. Variant-specific listings such as Edition 30, Edition 35, TCR, Performance Pack, Clubsport and Clubsport S are noted in the product titles. If you are unsure which variant applies, confirm with your VIN before ordering.

Exhaust systems, downpipes and delete pipes require the vehicle to be safely raised, existing components removed, and new sections aligned and clamped or bolted with fresh gaskets and fasteners.

Installation by a professional workshop is recommended. Catless and sports cat components may affect emissions compliance and noise levels, and may not be legal for road use in your state or territory - check local regulations before purchase.

Will a Golf R system fit my Golf GTI? Not usually. Golf R and GTI use different rear sections and tailpipe layouts, so choose the system listed for your model.

Do I need a tune after fitting a downpipe? Many owners pair a downpipe with a calibration. Check with your tuner regarding your specific setup.

Are these systems stainless steel? Scorpion manufactures its exhaust systems from stainless steel. Refer to each product page for material and specification details.

What is the difference between cat-back and GPF-back? GPF-back systems are listed for cars fitted with a petrol particulate filter and start behind that filter, while cat-back systems start behind the catalytic converter. The two are not interchangeable.
