Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning 18-19 Audi RS5 (2.9) Exhaust System Kit is a purpose-built cat back exhaust system engineered specifically for the twin-turbo 2.9TT powerplant. This is the Touring Edition, delivering a menacing, aggressive soundtrack across the entire rev range while keeping the cabin composed and drone-free under cruising conditions. If you’ve been searching to shop for exhaust upgrades that transform your RS5’s character, this is the double-edged sword you’ve been waiting for.
Constructed from a true, dual 3″ T304L stainless steel configuration, this performance exhaust is built around a precision-engineered x-pipe designed specifically for the RS5’s 2.9TT. That dedicated engineering ensures every bend and diameter is tuned to complement the twin-turbo fury of the platform, giving you an exhaust system that looks, sounds, and fits like it belongs.
180 Technology® — Sound Without the Drone
At the heart of this car exhaust is AWE’s proprietary drone-canceling solution, 180 Technology®. It’s what allows the system to produce an intense, aggressive tone when you want it, then settle into a drone-free experience when you’re simply covering miles. The result is the best of both worlds: a soundtrack that turns heads and a highway cruise that keeps the conversation going.
Tips & Finish
The catback exhaust comes standard with two Diamond Black 180mm RS-style oval tips, each measuring 4.5″ and finished with a stamped AWE logo for an unmistakable, factory-plus appearance. The dark Diamond Black finish adds an aggressive visual edge that pairs perfectly with the RS5’s stance.
