This is the XForce cat-back exhaust system for the Volkswagen Golf MK5 GTI. It replaces the factory exhaust from the catalytic converter rearward with 3" mandrel-bent 304 stainless steel pipework in a brushed finish. The system runs a centre resonator into a single-in, twin-out rear muffler and finishes in twin 3" tips. All gaskets, nuts and bolts needed for fitment are included. XForce developed the system at its Australian R&D facility, with feedback gathered from GTI enthusiasts and tuners.
The centre resonator is what makes a 3" single-in, twin-out layout workable day to day. Sitting upstream of the rear muffler, it takes the first pass at the resonant frequencies the pipework carries, which leaves the rear muffler free to shape the character of the note instead of having to do all of the silencing by itself. Mandrel bending works toward the same end from the other direction - holding the full 3" bore through each bend rather than pinching the tube at the corners is what allows the reduction in back-pressure to be real rather than cosmetic, since otherwise the restriction simply relocates to the bends. It suits an owner who wants the GTI's own exhaust note brought forward and the twin-tip look at the rear, in a system built throughout from 304 stainless.
