AWE Exhaust Suite - Audi RS3 Sedan (8Y)
AWE designs, engineers, and builds every exhaust in-house, focusing on genuine measurable gains rather than just a different note. The AWE Exhaust Suite for the Audi RS3 Sedan (8Y) continues that approach, offering a choice between a valved SwitchPath system that retains factory valve control and a more aggressive Track Edition setup for those chasing extra flow.
This listing covers the Audi RS3 Sedan (8Y) platform. Select between the SwitchPath, Track Edition, or the SwitchPath-to-Track and Track-to-SwitchPath conversion kits using the variant selector above — each option is listed and priced separately on this page.
