Description
Elevate your Audi C8 RS 6 Avant or RS 7 driving experience with the AWE SwitchPath™ Exhaust system. Engineered to deliver peak performance and an exhilarating exhaust note, this cat-back exhaust is meticulously crafted for maximum flow, minimal bends, and superior sound control. The system features AWE’s patented 180 Technology®, ensuring zero drone at any speed and providing a rich, aggressive soundtrack when desired, with refined acoustics when cruising.
Constructed from 3-inch U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel, the AWE SwitchPath™ exhaust is fully emissions-compliant in all 50 states, offering dyno-proven power gains of +8 hp and +14 lb-ft of torque at the wheels. This bespoke design maintains factory valve behavior via the Audi MMI and Drive Select, allowing you to control the exhaust tone with the push of a button.
SwitchPath™ Technology adjusts exhaust flow by using factory valves to seamlessly shift between a refined, subdued note and an aggressive roar when desired. With valves closed, the system offers a quiet, drone-free driving experience. When opened, the 4.0TT engine’s full power and sound are unleashed, transforming your Audi RS into a dynamic powerhouse.
The AWE ReflecTip™ technology adds a unique touch, using parabolic tip design to reflect the exhaust sound toward the driver. These tips, 31% larger than stock, are finished in AWE’s signature diamond black and mount independently to the bumper, filling the valance and amplifying the driver’s experience.
Designed for a pure bolt-on installation, no cutting is required, and the Perfect Fitment Guarantee ensures flawless integration with your vehicle, regardless of rear-wheel steering.
