Volkswagen MK8 / MK8.5 Golf GTI ROW Model
2020 - 2025

Description

From their beginnings in the 1930’s and now part of the VAG group Volkswagen have grown to be one of the world’s largest car manufacturers. Initially focusing on affordable family cars including the iconic Beetle all that changed in 1976 with the launch of the Golf/Rabbit Mk1 Gti one of the first hot hatches and a real game changer. Following on from the Gti’s immense success the early 2000’s saw the launch of the first of their high-performance R models the Golf 4 R32. It was only natural that one of the very first performance exhausts Scorpion produced was for the Gti back in the early nineties and they’ve continued to be one of our most popular models to date.

GPF-Back System:

Our experienced technicians have developed a 76mm/3” GPF-back system with twin 114mm tailpipes for the VW MK8 Golf GTI ROW model.

This can be optioned as either resonated (fitted with a centre silencer, which helps reduce drone and provides a more refined sound) or non-resonated (this option removes the original silencer and is louder).

Once installed, the new freer-flowing GPF-back system ensures efficient expulsion of exhaust gases, improving the vehicle's power delivery and sharpening throttle response while also reducing overall weight.

Tailpipe Styles:

Ascari: Our premium sport option, available exclusively in a matte carbon finish, highlights the distinctive sporty carbon weave. Its two-piece floating construction, with an inner brushed stainless-steel insert, allows hot gases to pass through without discolouring or weakening the outer carbon shell.

Daytona: This design needs no introduction, the classic Scorpion Daytona slash-cut style with a modern twist on a timeless look. The Daytona is a great-looking option for everything from hot hatchbacks to flagship autobahn saloons.

Indy: Often referred to as the OEM-plus option, the Indy style features a noticeable inward-rolled edge, offering a refined upgrade over standard aesthetics without being too bold or flashy.

Tailpipe Finishes:

Polished: Premium T304 stainless steel polished trims undergo a meticulous multi-step buffing process, resulting in a long-lasting, mirror-like finish that stays shining (Daytona/Indy).

Downpipe:

For those who seek superior tuning potential, both on the dyno and on the asphalt, Scorpion’s advanced downpipe technology provides the capacity to reach unrivalled output figures.

Opt for the 200-cell sports catalyst for significantly improved flow over OEM or choose the unrestricted de-cat for peak gains (for motorsport use only).

Exhaust Tunnel Brace:

Want to tighten your grip on the road? Scorpion’s lightweight aluminium chassis braces tick all the boxes. The single-piece manufacturing process ensures a high-strength connection under load. Braces are powder-coated black and etched with the Scorpion mark.

Our underbody bracing reduces performance loss due to chassis twist during hard braking or cornering. Enhanced body rigidity translates to a more direct feel with the road surface. (Fits both the Scorpion and OEM pipework.)

The Scorpion Advantage:

Precision-engineered Scorpion exhausts incorporate our cutting-edge track-to-road technology, sharing proven motorsport tech with you. Crafted from premium T304 stainless steel, designed to endure the harshest of conditions. CNC Mandrel bent construction provides unmatched gas-flow, enhancing throttle response and boosting BHP. The manufacturing process also ensures weight-saving gains compared to OEM.
