So, here’s the deal: A5 Research and Development has really knocked it out of the park with this exhaust and downpipe combo. I’ve had the chance to put the AWE B8.5 A5 2.0T Touring Edition Exhaust and Downpipe through its paces, and let me tell you, it’s a game changer. When you’re just cruising around town or idling at a stoplight, it’s surprisingly civil—no annoying drone or anything. But when you stomp on the gas, it transforms into this beastly "war-cry wail" that turns heads and puts a grin on your face. It’s like having a refined gentleman that turns into a wild animal when you need it to.
Now, if you’ve ever looked at the stock exhaust on a B8.5 A5, you know it’s got some crimped tubing that really chokes off the power. AWE’s design uses CAD modeling to create smooth bends that keep the exhaust flowing freely. This means you’re looking at a solid gain of about 8-9 horsepower and 6-7 lb-ft of torque at the crank. Trust me, you’ll feel that difference on the road.
The single outlet version of this exhaust features two 90mm (3.50 inch) slash-cut tips, all set up to fit perfectly with the factory rear valance—both tips are on the left side, which gives it a unique look. You can choose between chrome silver or the sleek diamond black plating, both of which sport the AWE logo. And these tips? They’re double-walled, so they stay mirror-polished even when you’re pushing the car hard. Plus, you can adjust each tip individually to get that perfect stagger and depth into the bumper, which is a nice touch for those who care about aesthetics.
