Mk1 and Mk2 Leon Cupra exhausts
For the Mk1 (2000-2005) there is a cat-back with a sports cat or de-cat downpipe for the 1.8T Sport and Cupra 180PS, and a cat-back and large-bore downpipe for the 1.9 TDI.
The Mk2 Leon Cupra 2.0T FSI 240PS (2006-2011) and Cupra K1 (2007-2009) each have a cat-back plus cast downpipes with an HJS sports cat or a race cat, and a de-cat downpipe; the 240PS car also has a race rear silencer delete. The Cupra R 2.0 TSI 265PS (2010-2012) has a cat-back with a sports cat or de-cat downpipe.
Leon Cupra Mk3: hatch or ST, with or without a GPF
Mk3 listings are split by body and by whether the car has a petrol particulate filter (GPF/OPF). Non-GPF hatches, the Cupra 280 and 290 (2014-2017) and Cupra 300 (2018-2019), have a cat-back plus sports cat, race cat and de-cat downpipes. Non-GPF estates get the same choice: the ST Cupra 280 and 290 (2015-2019) and the ST Cupra 300 4x4 (2017-2018).
GPF-equipped cars have their own parts: the ST Cupra 300 4x4 of 2019-2020 has a cat-back with sports cat and de-cat downpipes, and the Cupra 290 hatch of 2019-2020 has a cat-back and a GPF/OPF bypass, a louder, motorsport-oriented option. The Cupra R 310PS cat-back covers 2018-2020.
Mk4 Cupra Leon filter-back systems and downpipes
Every Mk4 car has a particulate filter, so the systems are filter-back: the filter stays and Milltek replaces the exhaust behind it. There are listings for the 2.0 TSI 245PS MQB Evo (2022 on), with sports cat and de-cat downpipes, the 300PS hatch (2021 on), with a sports cat downpipe, and the 310PS ST/Kombi estate (2020-2024). Downpipes for GPF cars are offered with a GPF delete, which is a louder, motorsport-oriented choice.
Are Leon Cupra downpipes road legal?
HJS and hi-flow sports cat downpipes keep a catalyst; race cat downpipes use a 200-cell race cat and are aimed at track use. De-cat downpipes are for off-road and competition use only and will fail an MOT emissions test, and most downpipes need an ECU remap. Many come in versions to suit the OE system or a Milltek cat-back, and cat-backs are offered resonated (quieter, less drone), Road+ part-resonated or non-resonated. Browse more in manifolds, de-cats and sports cats, and FR owners should see the Leon FR collection.
