Milltek Cat Back Exhaust Volkswagen Golf Mk7.5 R 2.0 TSI 300PS GPF 19-22

Milltek Cat-back Exhaust for Volkswagen Golf Mk7.5 R 2.0 TSI 300PS (GPF Equipped Models Only) - 80mm Race Systems (2019-2022) – Sharper Sound, Reduced Back Pressure

This is Milltek's cat-back system for the Volkswagen Golf Mk7.5 R 2.0 TSI 300PS (GPF Equipped Models Only) - 80mm Race Systems. It replaces everything from the factory catalytic converter rearward with wider-bore pipework, a re-profiled mid-pipe and silencers tuned specifically for this platform, cutting back pressure and sharpening the exhaust note. The factory catalytic converter stays in place, so the car's emissions hardware is left as standard. It's offered in race non-resonated or race resonated versions and 7 tailpipe finishes, so you can pick the setup that suits how the car's used.

It's aimed at owners who want a noticeably different sound and a genuine, if modest, flow improvement without touching anything upstream of the cat: a straightforward bolt-on that doesn't need a remap or any other supporting mods to enjoy.

Installation

Milltek quotes a fitting time of approx. 1.5 to 2 hours. We recommend professional fitting on a ramp. Once fitted, check the tailpipe alignment and re-check all clamps after the first few hundred miles.

What's the difference between the resonated and non-resonated versions?

The resonated version adds extra silencing for a quieter, more refined tone. The non-resonated version leaves it out, so it is louder and more aggressive. Race versions are the loudest and are intended for track use.

Which tailpipe finishes are available?

You can choose from: GT-100 Burnt Titanium, JET-100 Carbon Fibre, GT-100 Cerakote Black, Cerakote Black Oval, GT-100 Polished, Polished Oval, GT-100 Titanium. The finish is cosmetic and does not change the sound.

Is it road legal?
