Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG Catless Downpipe — M133 2.0L Turbo
YPG Motorsport catless downpipe for the Mercedes-AMG GLA45 replaces the restrictive factory catalytic converter on the M133 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder with a mandrel-bent stainless steel pipe. The GLA45 shares its entire powertrain with the A45 and CLA45 — the same M133 engine, the same tuning potential, and the same modification path.
Removing the factory cat delivers faster turbo spool, sharper throttle response, and a more aggressive exhaust note. When paired with a Stage 2 ECU calibration, the GLA45 delivers 420–440 HP and 380–400 lb-ft of torque from the facelift model. The M133's top-mount intercooler heat-soaks quickly in GCC temperatures — an intercooler upgrade is essential at Stage 2+ in 40°C+ ambient conditions.
