RPM Performance 3” Exhaust Flexi Pipe – Maximum Exhaust Flow for Hyundai i20N 1.6 T-GDi

Give your Hyundai i20N 1.6 T-GDi 2021+ exhaust system a serious upgrade with the RPM Performance 3” Exhaust Flexi Pipe (RPM-I20N-FLEXI). This high-quality flexible exhaust joint has been specifically developed for the i20N and combines a large 3-inch / 76 mm diameter with a high-grade T304 stainless steel construction.

The original flexi is a well-known restriction in the exhaust system. The RPM Performance Flexi Pipe features a full-bore 76 mm / 3” diameter, allowing exhaust gases to flow much more freely. RPM Performance indicates that this upgrade can provide a power gain of approximately 6-8 bhp over the standard flexi, in addition to improved throttle response due to lower back pressure.

Why choose the RPM Performance 3” Exhaust Flexi Pipe for Hyundai i20N 1.6 T-GDi?

Full 3” / 76 mm diameter

The RPM Performance Flexi Pipe has a true 3-inch / 76 mm diameter throughout the entire flow. This reduces the restriction of the original system and creates a much freer exhaust gas flow. This is particularly beneficial when the i20N is fitted with an aftermarket downpipe, GPF-delete, or a full 3” exhaust system.

Less restriction and lower back pressure

A larger and freer-flowing flexi reduces the restriction in the exhaust system. This allows the turbo to expel its exhaust gases more efficiently, contributing to better throttle response and more potential for power and torque.

RPM Performance claims a gain of approximately 6-8 bhp over the standard flexi for this unit. This figure is, of course, dependent on the rest of the exhaust line and the specific setup of the car.

High-quality T304 Stainless Steel

The flexi is manufactured from T304 stainless steel, a high-grade alloy that is highly resistant to high temperatures, corrosion, and the harsh conditions to which a performance exhaust system is exposed.

High-quality T304 ILOK Flexi

RPM Performance uses a high-quality T304 ILOK flexible section. According to RPM, this distinguishes itself from cheaper flexi sections that can constrict under load, thereby causing a new restriction in the exhaust.

Improved throttle response

Due to the freer flow, back pressure is reduced. This can result in sharper throttle response and better turbo response, especially when the rest of the exhaust system has also been modified.

Ideal for performance builds

The RPM Performance Flexi Pipe is particularly interesting for an i20N with a modified exhaust. In combination with a 3” downpipe, GPF-delete, and/or 3” cat-back, the flexi forms an important part of a complete high-flow exhaust system.

Even if you only want to replace one restrictive part of the original exhaust system, this flexi can be applied as a standalone upgrade.

Suitable for OEM and aftermarket exhaust systems

According to RPM, the RPM Performance Flexi Pipe can be used in combination with both the original exhaust system and aftermarket systems. This means the upgrade is not exclusively intended for fully modified cars.

Direct bolt-on installation

The flexi is designed as a direct replacement for the original part. According to RPM, no cutting or welding is necessary and the required bolts are included. This makes it easy to replace the original configuration with the RPM Performance version.

Option for installation with Decat Downpipe

RPM Performance also offers a version/configuration where the flexi can be adapted to prevent an EML/CEL when used exclusively in combination with an RPM Decat Downpipe. When installed with the standard OEM downpipe, no extra sensor tube is required according to RPM.

Conclusion:

The RPM Performance 3” Exhaust Flexi Pipe for Hyundai i20N 1.6 T-GDi is a very attractive upgrade for anyone wanting to improve the exhaust flow of the i20N. With its 76 mm / 3” diameter, high-grade T304 stainless steel construction, and T304 ILOK flexible section, this flexi forms a much less restrictive connection than the original component.

Especially for an i20N with an aftermarket downpipe, GPF-delete, or full 3” exhaust system, this upgrade is attractive for bringing the flow of the complete system to the same high level. Furthermore, the freer flow—according to RPM Performance—provides better throttle response and approximately 6-8 bhp potential over the standard flexi, depending on the rest of the setup.
