DroneTrap Technology
IE’s exclusive DroneTrap system uses mathematically tuned internal ports that cancel out specific drone frequencies generated by your turbocharged engine. This ensures a deep, resonant tone that enriches your driving experience without causing discomfort on long drives.
Complete Catback Replacement
This full exhaust upgrade replaces all factory sections from the downpipe connection back—including mufflers, resonators, and tips—delivering a more aggressive tone and enhanced flow compared to the stock system.
Signature GLI Styling
Add a bold visual upgrade to your GLI with dual 4-inch slash-cut tips. Finished in brushed stainless steel and fully adjustable for depth, these tips allow you to fine-tune the final look—subtle or aggressive, the choice is yours.
Engineered for the MQB GLI Chassis
Precision-designed using high-resolution 3D scanning and CAD modeling, the IE Catback system ensures optimal fitment and maximum use of space within the MK7 GLI’s rear valence and underbody.
