Cobra Sport performance exhausts enhance the sound, looks and quality of your vehicle giving you the ultimate driving experience. Our sports exhausts range is fully guaranteed to give you assurance of our quality.
This VW Golf R Mk7.5 performance exhaust is made in 3"/76.2mm pipework and fit from the catalytic converter section backwards (Cat-back), these parts replace the centre and rear sections.
The resonated exhaust includes the centre silencer and has a subtle but sporty tone. This exhaust however, is also available as a non-resonated version which is a louder option as it excludes the centre silencer and therefore, has a sportier exhaust note.
All relevant fittings and gaskets are supplied.
Please Note:
The 'Valved' exhaust retains the use of exhaust valves. When switching drive modes (e.g. Eco to Race mode) your exhaust tone will continue to swop from quieter to louder tones as before.
The 'Non-Valved' exhaust removes the use of exhaust valves. When switching drive modes (e.g. Eco to Race mode) your exhaust tone will not change from quieter to louder as before. Using a Non-Valved exhaust will not harm the running of your vehicle, you will simply not have exhaust sound options, however the Cobra Sport exhaust has been designed with this in mind.
Fitted images show the non-valved resonated version.
Press Release
The addition of a GPF Filter in later Mk7.5 models allows the Golf R to conform to the latest European Emissions Standards but as a trade off, it dilutes the vehicle's aural qualities, making for a performance car that doesn't quite have the bark to match it's bite. Cobra Sport have developed a solution for this in the form of their new GPF-Back Performance Exhaust System. Precision TIG-welded from T304 stainless steel, this new system is available with or without integrated valves. The valves are specially developed to integrate with the factory Driving Modes and open or close depending on the mode selected, so you can keep sound levels to a minimum or unleash the engine's full potential, depending on your mood. Regardless of what mode is selected, unwanted drone is thoroughly eliminated. In addition to this, vehicles fitted with the optional DSG gearbox will emit an enhanced sporty tone on upshifts. The GPF-Back system, as the name suggests, retains the factory Gasoline Particulate Filter, but still manages to effectively enhance the exhaust note of the vehicle's EA888 2.0 TSI engine.
Matt Thomas, Sales Manager at Cobra Sport says "The Golf R MK7.5 exhaust system has completed the R&D program, and we have now collated the performance results. Having tested the resonated cat back exhaust system on the rolling road we saw an impressive +7.4bhp increase. This turbo back system utilises the factory valve actuators/motors to give you the quiet factory sound when running in eco mode, in this mode the system is barely louder than the standard system". Having driven both the resonated & non-resonated cat back system on a daily basis, I found the non-resonated to be slightly uncomfortable at motorway speeds, and slightly on the louder side for normal road use, although, nowadays I would class myself as the more mature driver. The Cobra Sport system really improves the drivability of this car and takes it to the next level."
A substantial weight saving can also be achieved with the 3" turbo back system providing a whopping 35% decrease in weight from the Original Equipment version. The styling of the system is finished off with either quad 5" x 3" oval slash-cut tailpipes in stainless steel finish or the upgraded ceramic coated versions.

The Cobra Sport system really improves the drivability of this car and takes it to the next level".
Independent rolling road testing of the Golf MK7 resonated turbo back system with sports cat front pipe and aftermarket air intake revealed a +40.76bhp (30.4KW) power increase measured at all 4 wheels with the Golf R putting an impressive 270.61bhp (201.8KW) through the rollers. This testing was undertaken by a dealer in Australia in temperatures of 29.3 degrees celsius and an air density of 93.6%.
A substantial weight saving can also be achieved with the 3" turbo back system providing a whopping 35% decrease in weight from the Original Equipment version.

Press Release
The resonator delete pipe is manufactured with CNC mandrel bent T304 stainless steel pipework with a bore size of 2.75" (69.9mm). The new part removes the central silencer/resonator found in the O/E system allowing for smoother gas flow rates for improved power delivery and a noticeably enhanced exhaust tone. The new Cobra Sport Exhaust significantly improves the sound of the car, increasing in volume but more importantly producing a deeper better quality sporty sound.
Cobra Sport Sales Director Matt Thomas commented, "Our new resonator delete pipes are an excellent introduction to performance exhaust improvements. We find many customers start with a resonator delete but soon take this further, fitting a Cobra Sport cat back or full turbo back exhaust upgrade. The exhaust tone with the delete pipe fitted is noticeably louder, deeper and more aggressive giving the desirable performance exhaust characteristics of a sport exhaust upgrade, with crackles and pops significantly enhanced. We have a before and after video on our website which demonstrates the substantial tonal improvements with the new part fitted."

Press Release
For those who wish to retain the standard downpipe, whilst still improving the sound and performance of their vehicle, Cobra Sport have developed a solution in the form of their new Venom Performance Exhaust System which fits from the catalyst back.
Precision TIG-welded from T304 stainless steel, this is the loudest possible cat back exhaust system currently offered by Cobra for the Mk7 GTI. The 'Venom' exhaust essentially replaces the standard vehicle's back box with beautiful mandrel-bent pipework and ditches the enormous standard centre resonator in favour of a smaller unit to iron out any possible drone that would otherwise be created. Throughout the rev range, Venom-equipped cars are an average of 7db louder than standard, and when fitted with the optional DSG gearbox, emit an enhanced sporty tone on upshifts too.
A range of 4"/101.6mm slash cut tailpipes are available, including highly polished tips, Ceramic-coated Blackout and Carbon Fibre tips available (optional extra), all of which really set the rear of the car apart from a standard GTI. Like all Cobra Sport exhausts, this system utilises precision TIG-welding techniques for exemplary fit and finish – a feature that gives Cobra Sport an advantage over other manufacturers. With over 25 years in the performance exhaust industry, each Cobra Sport exhaust system is designed, manufactured and tested in Sheffield, the heart of the UK steel.

This VW Golf GTi Mk7 performance exhaust is made in 2.75"/69.8mm pipework replaces the centre silencer significantly improving the exhaust tone.
All relevant fittings and gaskets are supplied.
Note - Fits to O/E exhaust only - the original pipework will have to be cut to enable this exhaust to fit the vehicle.
Press Release
The resonator delete pipe is manufactured with CNC mandrel bent T304 stainless steel pipework with a bore size of 2.75" (69.9mm). The new part removes the central silencer/resonator found in the O/E system allowing for smoother gas flow rates for improved power delivery and a noticeably enhanced exhaust tone.
The new Cobra Sport Exhaust significantly improves the sound of the car, increasing in volume but more importantly producing a deeper better quality sporty sound.
Cobra Sport Sales Director Matt Thomas commented, "Our resonator delete pipes are an excellent introduction to performance exhaust improvements. We find many customers start with a resonator delete but soon take this further, fitting a Cobra Sport cat back or full turbo back exhaust upgrade. The exhaust tone with the delete pipe fitted is noticeably louder, deeper and more aggressive giving the desirable performance exhaust characteristics of a sport exhaust upgrade, with crackles and pops significantly enhanced. We have a before and after video on our website which demonstrates the substantial tonal improvements with the new part fitted."

Cobra Sport performance exhausts enhance the sound, looks and quality of your vehicle giving you the ultimate driving experience. Our sports exhausts range is fully guaranteed to give you assurance of our quality.
This VW Golf R Mk7 performance exhaust is made in 3"/76.2mm pipework and fit from the turbo backwards (turbo-back system), these parts replace the front pipe, centre and rear sections.The de-cat exhaust version is sold for motorsport and off road use only worldwide.
The sports catalyst version replaces a factory emissions device and is not EC homologated. This may not meet current emission laws for road use in your territory.
The resonated exhaust includes the centre silencer and has a subtle but sporty tone. This exhaust however, is also available as a non-resonated version which is a louder option as it excludes the centre silencer and therefore, has a sportier exhaust note.
All relevant fittings and gaskets are supplied.
Please Note:
The 'Valved' exhaust retains the use of exhaust valves. When switching drive modes (e.g. Eco to Race mode) your exhaust tone will continue to swop from quieter to louder tones as before.
The 'Non-Valved' exhaust removes the use of exhaust valves. When switching drive modes (e.g. Eco to Race mode) your exhaust tone will not change from quieter to louder as before. Using a Non-Valved exhaust will not harm the running of your vehicle, you will simply not have exhaust sound options, however the Cobra Sport exhaust has been designed with this in mind.
Fitted images show the non-valved resonated version.
Press Release
Cobra Sport have gained a fantastic reputation in the Japanese, Ford and Vauxhall exhaust markets over the years and hope to capitalise on this success by launching a more comprehensive selection of VAG products over the coming months to complement and expand their market reach. Therefore, they have now added the VW Golf R MK7 to the range.
Matt Thomas, Sales Manager at Cobra Sport says "The Golf R MK7 exhaust system has completed the Research and Development program, and we have now collated the performance results. Having tested the resonated cat back exhaust system on the rolling road we saw an impressive +7.4bhp increase and are delighted that the turbo back system has produced even bigger gains. This turbo back system utilises the factory valve actuators/motors to give you the quiet factory sound when running in eco mode, in this mode the sound produced by the system is kept to a comfortable level. Having driven both the resonated and non-resonated cat back system on a daily basis, I found the non-resonated to be slightly uncomfortable at motorway speeds, and slightly on the louder side for normal road use, although, nowadays I would class myself as the more mature driver. The Cobra Sport system really improves the drivability of this car and takes it to the next level".
Independent rolling road testing of the Golf MK7 resonated turbo back system with sports cat front pipe and aftermarket air intake revealed a +40.76bhp (30.4KW) power increase measured at all 4 wheels with the Golf R putting an impressive 270.61bhp (201.8KW) through the rollers. This testing was undertaken by a dealer in Australia in temperatures of 29.3 degrees celsius and an air density of 93.6%.
A substantial weight saving can also be achieved with the 3" turbo back system providing a whopping 35% decrease in weight from the Original Equipment version. The styling of the system is finished off with either quad 5" x 3" oval slash-cut tailpipes in stainless steel finish or the upgraded ceramic coated versions.

Cobra Sport have gained a fantastic reputation in the Japanese, Ford and Vauxhall exhaust markets over the years and hope to capitalise on this success by launching a more comprehensive selection of VAG products over the coming months to complement and expand their market reach. The superb MK7 Golf GTI is the latest vehicle to be added to the expanding direct fit Cobra Sport exhausts collection for the VAG range. The 2.0 TSI found in the Golf GTI provides a perfect base for tuning, the Cobra Sport systems enhance performance and provide an improved sound track for an exhilarating drive.
The new 3"(76.2mm) stainless steel performance exhaust systems for the MK7 VW Golf GTI create an incredibly vibrant and pitch perfect sound of which Cobra Sport systems have become widely known for. The non resonated cat back exhaust system increases sound level of +10.7dB to 85.2dB and for those looking for a more subtle sound improvement, the resonated cat back system increases levels by +9dB recording 83.5dB during the stationary 4,000rpm sound test.
Cobra Sport's Sales Manager Matt Thomas says, "The sound quality from the new Cobra Sport systems is pitch perfect giving a sportier edge to the fantastic Golf GTI. Along with the improved deeper sound track, the resonated cat back system keeps interior sound levels in check to provide a comfortable sound levels at cruising speeds with a highest cabin reading of 86.7dB during road testing when under full load. The new Cobra Sport systems also benefit from an exceptional weight advantage. Through clever design we have been able to create a non resonated cat back exhaust which is 30% lighter than the original equipment system weighing in at only 14kg."
Unrivalled quality is the hallmark of every Cobra Sport exhaust. Each exhaust is engineered to the highest tolerances and features CNC mandrel bending of the stainless steel pipework which ensures clean airflow. Jig manufacturing and TIG welding procedures ensure great looks and a superlative finish. The Golf GTI systems are finished in a choice of 4" (101.6mm) inverted slash cut tailpipes in either a highly polished stainless steel or Cobra Sport 'Blackout' black ceramic coated finish.
