Description
Transform the performance and sound of your Audi RS Q8 (4M) 2025 with the Akrapovič Evolution Line Titanium Exhaust System, a premium upgrade designed for driving enthusiasts who demand the best in both function and form. Precision-crafted from lightweight, high-grade titanium, this full exhaust system enhances the RS Q8’s aggressive character with an exhilarating exhaust note and tangible performance gains.
The Evolution Line system includes a central muffler paired with dual side-mounted exhaust valves, both featuring housings cast in Akrapovič’s own foundry. A specially designed titanium link pipe with an integrated X-connection balances the exhaust flow, producing the unmistakable high-frequency racing tone that Akrapovič is renowned for. The result is a powerful V8 growl at low RPMs and a sharp, motorsport-inspired note at high RPMs—delivering an emotional sound experience across the entire rev range.
Power delivery is also improved. When tested on Akrapovič’s in-house dyno, the Evolution Line system demonstrated a maximum power increase of 5.7 kW at 6,200 rpm and a torque gain of 10.7 Nm at 2,850 rpm compared to the stock RS Sport exhaust. Despite these gains, comfort is not compromised—the system is tuned to eliminate cabin drone during cruising and includes a quiet mode for refined driving.
Finishing the system are dual carbon-fiber/titanium tailpipes that offer a visual statement to match the performance upgrade. Installation is completely plug-and-play, and with ECE type approval, no ECU remapping is required (when installed without optional components).
