Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning Touring Edition Exhaust System Kit is built specifically for the 2015-2020 Audi A3 Quattro (2.0T), delivering a more aggressive yet refined character that suits the luxury compact perfectly. Engineered, designed, and manufactured in-house at AWE, this cat-back exhaust system is handcrafted from durable T304L stainless steel and finished with a set of striking Diamond Black tips. If you’ve been searching to shop for exhaust upgrades that combine genuine performance with everyday comfort, this Touring Edition system is purpose-built for your A3.
Every component uses a 3″ CNC mandrel-bent design, ensuring smooth, consistent flow through the entire exhaust system. The result is a car exhaust that sounds noticeably more aggressive under throttle while remaining civilized on the highway, so your daily drive stays comfortable and your spirited drives feel more alive.
Performance & Sound
This performance exhaust system is engineered to unlock power without compromise. When paired with a downpipe (DP), the system delivers max gains of 26 hp and 24 lb-ft of torque at the crank. Best of all, no tune is required, and there’s no 180 Technology needed to enjoy the upgraded tone. The Touring Edition strikes the balance between an assertive exhaust note and a livable cabin experience, exactly what the A3 2.0T’s personality calls for.
