AWE AUDI 8Y RS 3 Exhaust Suite

Firing on all five. The AWE Exhaust Suite for the Audi 8Y RS 3 is engineered to amplify the power and character of your five-cylinder machine with aggressive tone, measurable gains, and precision fitment — all without compromising factory emissions equipment.

Choose from two distinct personalities:

The SwitchPath™ Edition is built from U.S.-sourced 3” and 2.5” T304L stainless steel, featuring a valved 3” passenger-side outlet and a 2.5” resonated driver-side outlet. It fully retains the factory valve system, responding to Drive Select modes, throttle input, and engine speed. Need to keep it quiet? Leave the valve closed. Want full throttle chaos? Open it up and let your RS 3 howl. AWE includes a plug-and-play valve assembly, so there’s no need to swap over factory actuators during install. It’s the perfect dual-personality system, backed by 50-state emissions compliance and a clean bolt-on design.

Prefer your RS 3 loud all the time? The Track Edition removes the valved rear section, replacing it with a straight-through configuration for a permanently open system. The result is a consistent, raw five-cylinder soundtrack that doesn’t hold back. But fair warning — this version is not for the timid, and it’s not returnable based on sound preference. Thankfully, conversion kits are available if you want to tone things down later.

Both systems feature precision-engineered mandrel bends, minimalist straight-through design, and a weight savings of up to 39 lbs over stock. AWE Valve Simulator Brackets are included: one for SwitchPath™, and two for Track Edition installs — keeping the ECU happy and your dash free of error codes.

Backed by AWE’s Perfect Fitment Guarantee, No CEL Guarantee, and Lifetime Warranty, this is the last exhaust your RS 3 will ever need.
