This is a targeted upgrade addressing the restriction closest to the turbo itself, exactly the point in the exhaust system where reduced backpressure delivers the most immediate improvement in response and power delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eConstructed from T-304 stainless steel, this bypass pipe and elbow assembly is built to outlast the factory component it replaces, resisting the corrosion that eventually catches up with mild steel factory parts. Because this section sits so close to the turbocharger itself, addressing restriction here tends to deliver a more noticeable transformation than equivalent upgrades further downstream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant fitment note:\u003c\/strong\u003e this is specifically for pre-facelift models.
