Welcome to the mothership of 3.0T exhausts. AWE 3.0T Exhaust Systems represent the most difficult, yet most rewarding, exhaust development projects in AWE Tuning company history. The 3.0T systems have paved the way for future exhaust technologies that can now be found in most every AWE Tuning Exhaust product. AWE has 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. Hand made in house one by one, these systems command respect without calling unwanted attention to themselves. Sophisticated, refined, and powerful, all at once. Highlights of the S4 3.0T Touring Edition System Hand-crafted, every detail of these exhausts was labored over to ensure maximum performance and longevity: + 8hp, +9tq at the crank Increased pipe diameter to 2.5” to better let the engine exhale Strategic elimination of mufflers to release tone when uncorked Available with Chrome Silver or Diamond Black adjustable tips, 90mm or 102mm Engineered, developed, tested and manufactured in-house Thick .065" wall T304 stainless steel tubing Stainless steel TIG welds High quality stainless steel band clamps Stainless steel center muffler with OEM grade stainless steel wool and German composite packing material Optional Downpipes for fine tuning sound volume Lifetime Warranty Tip options Tip options are as follows - all of which include the AWE Tuning logo, and double walling to ensure a mirror finish even under hard usage. 90mm Slash Cut Diamond Black Tips 90mm Slash Cut Chrome SIlver Tips All tips are individually adjustable, so stagger and depth into bumper can be set according to personal taste. About the downpipes We offer AWE Tuning Resonated and Non-Resonated Downpipes. The AWE Resonated Downpipes (strongly recommended for S-tronic cars) feature resonators larger than the stock units in order to produce a mellow sound volume. AWE optional Non-Resonated downpipes are suited for owners seeking a "loud" and aggressive sounding system. Both AWE Tuning Resonated and Non-Resonated Downpipes feature larger than stock tubing diameter. Downpipe + Exhaust packages offer the most cost-effective solution. Downpipe installation tip Installing downpipes on these cars is arduous given the placement of the factory bolts. We had so much trouble that we made an AWE Tuning-grade tool to make it easier. If you're planning an install, the AWE Downpipe Removal Tool is a must have. Upgrading to downpipes later Not sure if you want to do the full package yet? No worries. If you purchase a Downpipe-Back system alone, you have one full year from the date of Downpipe-Back system purchase to buy the complementing downpipes, for the price difference between the Downpipe-Back system alone and the package price (price at the time of downpipe purchase). This is for original owners only, and is valid through AWE Tuning directly or through any authorized AWE Tuning dealer such as ourselves, so long as proof of the original Downpipe-Back purchase can be provided. Read this, too None of the components of the AWE Tuning S4 exhaust system affect or alter any of the emissions devices on the vehicle, and therefore are legal for street use. As with all AWE Tuning exhaust products, each TIG weld is hand finished internally, and flange openings are size matched to their ports, all to produce the smoothest flow possible. It is this intensive attention to detail that sets AWE Tuning exhaust products heads and shoulders above the rest. Note: In limited cases, the factory downpipes have been known to emit minor rattling noises when paired with the AWE Tuning S4 exhaust system. The possibility of rattling is eliminated with the addition of AWE Tuning downpipes. AWE Tuning downpipes are package discounted when purchased with the exhaust, or if they are purchased within one year of an exhaust purchase.
