Description
Overview
Welcome to the mothership of 3.0T exhausts. The AWE Tuning Touring Edition Exhaust System Kit for the 2012-2017 Audi S5 (Coupe, 3.0, AWD) represents the most comprehensive exhaust development project in AWE’s company history. This is a complete cat-back exhaust system, handcrafted in-house from premium T304L stainless steel, engineered to transform how your S5 sounds and drives without requiring a tune. The 3.0T systems have paved the way for future exhaust technologies that can now be found in most every AWE product, making this a proven, refined performance exhaust for enthusiasts who demand both sophistication and power.
Sound & Technology
AWE spent considerable time and effort during development to achieve remarkable civility when idling and at part-throttle cruising, while also producing a war-cry wail when full throttle is applied. The secret is AWE’s proprietary 180 Technology, which cancels unwanted resonance for a clean, drone-free cabin experience. When you shop for exhaust upgrades that command respect while staying refined, this catback exhaust delivers on both fronts. Every detail of this car exhaust drives toward maximum performance, quality, and perfect sound.
Key Benefits
Built as a true Touring Edition cat-back exhaust system, this kit balances aggression with daily livability. The 2.5-inch tubing diameter and quad 4-inch Chrome Silver tips finish the look with unmistakable presence, while the T304L stainless steel construction ensures long-term durability against heat and corrosion. Because no tune is required, installation is straightforward, and the system carries AWE’s fitment and No CEL guarantees for peace of mind.
