OEM-Like Valve Operation
This system retains the factory Drive Select button functionality, allowing seamless integration with Comfort, Auto, Dynamic, and RS drive modes. When closed, the twin exhaust valves route airflow through the central muffler for a quieter tone. In Dynamic or RS mode, the valves open, redirecting exhaust flow through straight dual 3” piping—unleashing the raw V8 sound at full volume.
Built for Maximum Flow & Precision Fitment
Using advanced 3D scans of the C8 RS chassis, IE engineers optimized the routing and clearances for maximum performance and a direct bolt-on installation. No cutting or welding is required—just pure plug-and-play performance with perfect alignment.
Premium Manufacturing Standards
All piping is crafted from mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel with hand TIG-welded joints, ensuring maximum durability and a refined appearance. Double-wall flex joints handle high-torque stress and track use with ease, while multi-point hanger brackets ensure a rattle-free, secure mount even under load.
Must-Have Performance & Sound Upgrade
From the unmistakable tone of open-valve V8 aggression to the comfort of stock-like cruising, the IE Catback exhaust system delivers it all—without compromise. Combined with Box 2, you’ll experience a refined yet menacing exhaust sound worthy of your C8 RS6 or RS7.
