Description
Get maximum turbo performance and dramatically increase torque with the Mazdaspeed 3 Power Series Downpipe. The CorkSport Mazdaspeed3 downpipe was expertly designed to replace the restrictive element in the Mazdaspeed 3 stock downpipe
The CorkSport Advantage
Fitment Choices:
Pick the 65mm flange for stock fitment (it will also work with all aftermarket exhausts), or 80mm flange for the CorkSport Cat Back exhaust and true 3" piping. Either way, mandrel bent piping is used to create smooth exhaust flow for dramatic increases in power.
Improved Power:
With just an intake installed, you can gain up to 50 HP more by adding the long catted downpipe or short downpipe and race pipe.
CorkSport Short Downpipe:
Replaces just the downpipe section but not the racepipe for a cost-effective solution that works with the stock racepipe, or aftermarket. For lasting corrosion resistance and reduced heat transfer to the engine bay, the CorkSport MS3 downpipe uses polished 304 stainless steel and features TIG welds that offer superior arc and weld puddle control for a cleaner appearance and precise weld bead control
CorkSport V2 Long Catted Downpipe
Our long downpipes now use our new “modular” system to improve flow, enhance fitment, and simplify installation in your MS3 engine bay. The design utilizes a cast stainless steel bellmouth with a v-band connection to 3” stainless steel piping. A 300 CEL high-flow cat is included to help keep emissions in check with minimal drawbacks. The long downpipe replaces both the OEM downpipe and racepipe sections.

- If you are ordering the long-catted DP and have a CS turbo with an EWG off the turbine housing, the wastegate will need to be moved to the turbine housing directly, and a new dump tube used. CS part number GEN-6-575-17 is needed and it is available for purchase HERE.

Does buying just the downpipe replace your cat? Or does the race pipe replace the cat?
Greg
If i have a stock exhaust and a 65mm race pipe from Corksport, will the catless downpipe fit my setup? It's indicated that it only comes in 3"...
jakub gurgul
Hey I have the corksport cutback 80mm will the high flow car bolt on directly to the exhaust?
David Choe
so this is not legal in california??!
Walter
So for people in Cali you can't purchase the catted down pipe? Any way to get rid of the CEL for those without the cat?
John Lewis
Which size connector for future OBX ehaust after first using stock exhaust?
Pat O'Brien
Will this match up with my HKS 75mm catback?
Danno Nahabedian
I want to purchase the downpipe with the high flow cat however, what is the OEM fitment size for the second gen mazdaspeed3? 65mm or 80mm?
Sam Plapp
I currently have stock exhaust and will eventually get CSCB. If I order the 65mm now, will I be able to switch it to the 80mm? I hear quite a few comment on speeders just getting the DP and loving the sound and performance. Any suggestions?

I have an '09 MS3 with your SRI... Warranty is up so time for the toys...Is there a specific fuel pump upgrade you recommend running with the downpipe? Also as long as I get the catted model will I be ok running this in NY? CorkSport Reply:We will have our pump internals available on Feb 7th. We are not sure on the local laws for emissions, I would talk to your local emissions tester.
