DSD3226 - Darkside Developments Stainless DPF & Cat Delete Pipe - 3.0 TDI (V6)
The Darkside Developments DPF and Catalytic Converter delete pipe (DSD3226) is the benchmark component for unlocking the potential of the 3.0 TDI V6 engine. Manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, this kit replaces the restrictive factory elements to improve exhaust flow and engine reliability.
Why choose the Darkside DSD3226 kit?
Designed for Stage 2 tunes and beyond, this downpipe offers major mechanical advantages for large VAG group SUVs:
- Power Release: Drastic reduction in backpressure at the turbo exit, allowing for faster revving and improved response.
- Temperature Reduction: Reduces heat buildup at the turbo level (EGT), thereby extending the lifespan of mechanical components.
- V6 Sound: Provides a deeper and more pronounced exhaust note, typical of tuned V6 TDI engines.
- High-Quality Stainless Steel: TIG welded and handcrafted in the UK for extreme durability.

Important Information
Competition use: This product is strictly reserved for use on tracks or private land. DPF removal makes the vehicle non-compliant for road use in certain countries.
Remapping: Installing this part requires a mandatory Engine Control Unit (ECU) remap to disable DPF regeneration cycles and avoid fault codes (Check Engine Light).
