IE's Catback Exhaust for the Audi RS3 8V is a complete solution that offers the highest levels of power from any turbo setup and a Motorsport tuned sound that lets that 5 cylinder beast roar! Creating a true Motorsport exhaust system requires a delicate balance of flow and harmonics. Extensive engineering and testing has produced a truly unrestricted exhaust with an exhilarating symphony of engine sound without annoying rattles, drones, or reverb cabin noise. Your stereo system may be out of a job!
Most aftermarket catback systems for the RS3 are designed to mimic the factory twin pipe setup making it easy to connect to the downpipe. This was fine for factory or mildly tuned setups, however the split pipe system can not keep up with the flow demands of aggressively tuned engines and big turbo setups, causing power loss. The IE catback center pipe is a massive 3.5" straight-through pipe that splits to dual 3" pipes out the back with the valves open. This is enough flow to power even the largest turbo setups.
The built-in valve system is fully controlled by the factory drive select button just like stock without the need for finicky Bluetooth apps or cumbersome key fobs. Simply select comfort to drive around your suburb like a civilized neighbor -or select dynamic to blow their ears out with that 5 cylinder furry.
Each IE catback is manufactured from the highest standard 304L stainless steel, mandrel bent, and TIG welded by hand all using precise fixtures and tooling. We take great pride in knowing your new exhaust is built to last a lifetime.
Cutting edge engineering and craftsmanship have blended together at every step from design to manufacturing delivering the highest quality surface finish, fit and material brightness. The exhaust tips feature horizontal, vertical, and depth adjustments so you can perfect them exactly as you wish. Not only will your exhaust sound and perform amazing, it will look the part as well.
Note: Optional Y-Pipe Adapter is required for stock downpipe.
