The IE ProCore Downpipe for your Audi SQ5 delivers an improved exhaust note and increased flow. IE’s in-house engineered 6" 400CPSI catalytic converter channels substantial flow to support upgraded engine tunes and larger turbochargers. The specialty tri-core design and precious metal coatings align with ECU emissions requirements so that you can upgrade without the check engine light.
Leading Features
- IE ProCore catalyst: No check engine light
- High-flow design: Supports hybrid & large turbo power
- Increases sound: Full and enriched exhaust note
- Bolt-on direct fit: No cutting, no welding, no hassle
- High quality: Stainless steel, TIG welded, & investment casting
The Procore Advantage
IE’s in-house engineered Pro Core Catalyst features IE’s own tri-core design with a specialized coating, enabling it to pass vehicle readiness monitors without triggering a check engine light. An advanced molecular bonded wash process applies the precious metal coatings to ensure long-life reliability. Whether you’re looking to improve the exhaust note from your SQ5 or building a track-destroying hybrid turbo setup, enjoy your exhaust without the annoying check engine light.
No check engine light does not equal reduced power. The 6" 400CPSI CAT maintains optimal flow to support substantial power gains up to large and hybrid turbochargers. Your IE ProCore downpipe will pass vehicle readiness monitors and allow total and complete power, torque, and spool potential from your hardware and tuning upgrade investments.
Advanced Engineering
Advanced 3D scanning tools and cutting-edge software provide IE’s engineers with a high-resolution digital model of Audi’s unique 3.0T engine. This data is then used to maximize the downpipe size for flow and ensure perfect and factory-like fitment.
Cutting-Edge Manufacturing
IE downpipes are manufactured with quality materials for lasting strength and performance. The T304L stainless steel investment cast body smoothly transitions exhaust flow from the massive 6" CAT to the dual 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust legs. All joints are hand TIG welded using precise fixtures and tooling for a seamless, leak-free fit.
Hybrid Turbo Ready
The stock downpipe becomes a significant restriction when upgrading to a larger hybrid turbo. IE’s cast downpipe is a direct fit to available upgraded turbochargers on the market and will unleash the complete horsepower, torque, and spool potential from your turbocharger investment.
IE B9 3.0T intake systems, turbo inlet pipe, and downpipe are hybrid optimized, making the installation of popular turbo upgrades an easy bolt-in process.
Dyno Testing
Real-world power numbers are achieved using IE’s in-house dyno cells to verify the efficiency of the downpipe design. Dyno testing performed in controlled conditions on a hybrid turbo equipped B9 SQ5 resulted in consistent and significant power gains of 45HP & 41FT-LBS to the wheels!
Power Gains Over Stock
The "0" baseline is the maximum power/torque made, and each following increment is the additional power gained from the IE downpipe upgrade.
The 6" 400 CPSI ProCore CAT improves exhaust flow.
The increased size of the downpipe body and smooth transition into the midpipes quickly evacuates exhaust gases away from the turbine wheel, improving turbocharger speed and efficiency.
The thick-wall investment cast body reduces radiant heat keeping the engine bay and charge air cooler.
Install your new downpipe kit without welding, cutting, permanent modifications, or installation hassles. The process is straightforward with the correct tools. If desired, the factory heatshield and engine cover reinstall with a perfect fit for a truly stealth look.

In stock and ships from a US warehouse. Standard Shipping applies to every order — rates are calculated at checkout. Some items may require additional processing time depending on the specific product and current demand. Track your order any time at eurospeed.co/pages/track for a live delivery estimate.
International orders ship via Economy International, with delivery typically 6–18 business days depending on destination and customs.
Delivery time depends on the product. Most in-stock parts ship within days, while carbon fiber and made-to-order items may require production time before they ship. For the specific timeline on any item, check the Availability & Shipping section on that product’s own page — the guide below covers our general shipping types.
Shipping Overview
Depending on the item, free air freight may be available for select carbon fiber components, with estimated shipping around 1–2 weeks after dispatch. Larger hoods, oversized body components, and certain made-to-order items may require sea freight and longer delivery windows. If timing is important, please contact us at support@eurospeed.co before placing your order.
Shipping Coverage
EuroSpeed ships to customers across the United States and internationally. Shipping is included in the price of eligible products for your convenience and covers the initial cost of delivery to your destination.
Import duties, taxes, clearance fees, or customs charges required by your destination country are not included and remain the recipient’s responsibility.
Order Processing & Fulfillment
Every order is reviewed, processed, and prepared before shipment. Most in-stock products are processed within 1–3 business days, though some orders may take up to 5 business days depending on fulfillment location, product type, order volume, or courier pickup timing.
EuroSpeed stocks select high-demand products at our U.S. facility and international fulfillment centers. Because our catalog includes many vehicle-specific and specialty parts, not every product is held in-house at all times.
Some orders may ship through our trusted fulfillment network, which may include verified manufacturing partners, authorized distributors, regional warehouses, and international fulfillment centers.
- Orders may ship from a U.S. warehouse, international warehouse, manufacturer, or authorized fulfillment partner.
- Some products may require additional handling, processing, production, or quality-check time before shipment.
- Orders enter fulfillment shortly after being placed and may no longer be eligible for cancellation once processing, production, or shipment preparation begins.
Custom, Made-To-Order & Oversized Items
Custom, made-to-order, and oversized product categories may include carbon fiber steering wheels, hoods, trunk lids, fenders, front lips, splitters, side skirts, diffusers, bumpers, body kits, widebody components, select spoilers, rear wings, and other large carbon fiber components.
Many carbon fiber items are made to order. Some products may already be stocked and ready to dispatch when available, but if inventory is unavailable, your purchase reserves the next available production slot instead of waiting for a separate restock listing.
Production time: Production can take 1–4 weeks depending on product type, selected options, finish, current queue, and quality-control timing.
Shipping time: Shipping can take 2–10 weeks depending on item size, freight method, destination, customs processing, carrier delays, warehouse transfers, and final delivery location. Carbon fiber steering wheels typically ship faster, with shipping usually taking 3–7 business days after dispatch.
By purchasing custom, made-to-order, or oversized items, you acknowledge and accept the extended production, fulfillment, and shipping timelines associated with these products.
Tracking Updates & Delays
All orders receive a tracking number once generated by the courier. Tracking may take 2–3 business days after dispatch to show movement in the courier’s system.
Certain international, oversized, or freight shipments may show limited updates during transfer between fulfillment locations, warehouses, customs, or final-mile carriers. In some cases, tracking is provided or begins updating once the item reaches a regional warehouse, local carrier, or final delivery network.
Shipping timelines are estimates and are not guaranteed. Delays caused by high order volume, weather conditions, customs inspections, carrier disruptions, production queues, warehouse transfers, holidays, or other external factors may occur and are outside of EuroSpeed’s direct control. These delays do not qualify for cancellations or refunds unless the carrier officially marks the package as lost.
Delivery Responsibility
Upon delivery, carefully inspect the item for visible defects or damage before signing for it. If the item is damaged or not as expected, do not accept the package. Once a damaged or defective product is accepted, EuroSpeed cannot cover return shipping costs.
EuroSpeed is not liable for packages marked as delivered by the carrier. If a package is lost, stolen, or missing after being marked as delivered, the customer must file a claim directly with the shipping carrier. Our team will assist with available documentation when needed.
Shipping addresses typically cannot be changed once an order has been marked as shipped. If an address change is possible through the carrier, any carrier redirect, correction, or address-change fee will be the customer’s responsibility.
Please ensure your shipping address is entered correctly at checkout. Orders shipped to incorrectly provided addresses are the customer’s responsibility. EuroSpeed is not responsible for failed deliveries, additional shipping costs, lost packages, or refunds caused by incorrect shipping information, failure to accept delivery, or failure to collect a package from the post office or carrier pickup location within the required time frame.
Customs, Duties & Import Fees
EuroSpeed’s free shipping policy does not include import fees, taxes, duties, clearance charges, or other fees required by your destination country. These charges are the responsibility of the recipient, and EuroSpeed is not responsible for any duties or taxes requested by local customs.
Most shipments clear customs automatically through the shipping provider. However, if additional information is needed to complete the process, our team will assist where possible to help ensure a smooth resolution.
If customs clearance fails and the item is returned or destroyed:
- EuroSpeed reserves the right to deny refund claims.
