Compatible with the Coupe and Cabrio, this exhaust rises to the standard of all AWE Tuning Performance technology. AWE Tuning Gen2 exhausts have earned praise from owners and the press alike, due to their unique "Jekyll and Hyde" personality. A5 Research and Development has yielded an exhaust that is remarkably civil while idling / part throttle cruising, but unleashed at full throttle it produces what some have called a “war-cry wail.” AWE Tuning exhausts are like bespoke suits: each is hand made utilizing only the finest materials, and they command respect while never losing composure…Sophisticated, refined, and powerful, all in one package.
The stock exhaust system is full of crimped tubing that hurts exhaust flow and robs horsepower. The A5 2.0T exhaust was designed using sophisticated CAD modeling software to produce smooth gradual bends and to eliminate any interruption to the flow of exhaust gasses. AWE Tuning improvements to the exhaust path result in gains of 8-9 horsepower and 6-7 lb ft of torque at the crank.
Replacing the large, restrictive factory mufflers also has a pleasing effect on the engine note. AWE Tuning exhaust systems give the 2.0T a civilized, more melodious voice, with specific attention paid to low rpm situations at part throttle.
Thanks to the use of our specially designed Helmholtz sound cancellation resonators, we were able to isolate and eliminate unpleasant sound frequencies when the exhaust is mated with the factory downpipes.
