Description
Overview
The 18-24 Audi RS5 (2.9) Exhaust System Kit from AWE Tuning is a purpose-built Conversion Kit engineered to transform your existing AWE Touring Edition Cat Back into a full Track Edition. Rather than replacing your entire exhaust system, this kit lets you swap the rear 180 Technology® sections for Track Edition straight sections, unlocking a more aggressive, uncorked character from your 2.9 RS5. It’s a smart, targeted upgrade for owners who already appreciate the fit and finish of their AWE catback exhaust and want to take the sound further.
Constructed entirely from premium T304L stainless steel, this performance exhaust hardware is designed to endure the heat, vibration, and long-term abuse that defines a genuine car exhaust upgrade. The 3-inch tubing diameter keeps flow generous and consistent through the rear sections, delivering the deeper, more direct tone that the Track Edition is known for.
Key Benefits
Because this is a Conversion Kit, there’s no need to start from scratch. If you’re shopping for exhaust upgrades that build on what you already own, this is one of the most cost-effective paths to Track Edition sound. Best of all, no tune is required, and AWE backs the kit with a No CEL Guarantee, so you won’t be chasing check-engine lights after installation.

Sound & Character
The magic of this exhaust system is in the swap. By removing the 180 Technology® sections and installing the straight Track Edition sections, you remove the tone-cancelling elements built into the Touring Edition. The result is the louder, more purposeful voice that draws so many RS5 owners toward Track Edition setups. This kit itself does not use valves or 180 Technology®, keeping the exhaust exhaust pipe path direct and unrestricted through the rear.
Fitment
This Exhaust System Kit is designed specifically for the 2018-2024 Audi RS5 with the 2.9 engine, and it requires an existing AWE Touring Edition Cat Back as the foundation for the conversion. AWE’s Fit Guarantee means the components are engineered to bolt into place using your existing AWE catback exhaust hardware layout. Whether you’ve been comparing borla exhaust, corsa exhaust, and magnaflow exhaust options or searching for an exhaust pipe shop near me, this AWE conversion offers a factory-quality, purpose-built way to reach Track Edition performance and sound.
