AWE Touring Edition Exhaust w/ Diamond Black RS-Style Tips for B9.5 Audi RS 5 Coupe

The AWE Touring Edition Exhaust for the B9.5 Audi RS 5 Coupe is designed to refine the 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6’s sound without sacrificing character. It uses a tuned, straight-through architecture with integrated resonators to reduce unwanted drone while preserving a deep, full-bodied tone under acceleration. Constructed from T304L stainless steel, the system maintains factory-aligned fitment and durability, ensuring long-term reliability and proper clearance. The diamond black RS-style tips provide a subtle, performance-inspired appearance that blends seamlessly with the OEM rear design, giving the car an enhanced presence without drawing attention away from its overall aesthetic.

Turbocharge Your Performance

• The RS5’s 2.9TT can now experience a menacing yet drone-free sound because of AWE’s precision-engineered x-pipe and 180 Technology® built with a genuine dual 3” T304L stainless steel setup. This is the reward drivers have desired.
• AWE 180 Technology® has provided a delightful musical tone.
• The 2.9L engine in the RS 5 generates exhaust gasses which pass through carefully positioned ports and enter the resonator with AWE 180 Technology®. As the sound waves are conducted by the exhaust, they hit the inside walls of the reflection chambers and are reflected. Through regulating the ports’ measurement and placement, as well as the chambers, the timing of the reflected sound waves is managed. This results in a wave subtly out of phase in relation to the main exhaust, which eliminates volumes of unwished-for frequencies. Call it science, call it magic, or just call it 180 Technology® from AWE.

What is 180 Technology?

• AWE Tuning’s patented 180 Technology works as follows: As exhaust gases exit the engine and flow into a resonator equipped with AWE’s 180 Technology, they pass through strategically located ports and into reflection chambers. Sound waves carried by these exhaust gases bounce off the walls of the reflection chambers. Depending on the sound requirements of each vehicle, AWE’s acoustic engineers adjust the size and location of the ports and chambers. By controlling these key elements, AWE Tuning can manage when the sound waves exit the chambers. The precise timing of when the reflected sound waves rejoin the main exhaust flow creates a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree out-of-phase sound wave that cancels out problematic frequencies.
• Consistency Through Change:
  • AWE’s 180 Technology is not based on a “one size fits all” concept. Instead, AWE engineers design sound-canceling resonators based on the specific acoustics generated by different vehicle types, ensuring perfect sound every time. This approach is one reason AWE exhausts have earned a reputation for delivering the perfect tone, regardless of the application.
• What It Means to You:
  • The result? The elimination of unwanted tones in all AWE 180 Technology-equipped exhaust systems. The sound produced by this technology is the perfect, signature note, providing unlocked performance and spot-on tone every time.

Exhaust Tips

• Each exhaust system is equipped with three 4.5” double-walled, slash-cut tips, available in chrome silver or diamond black, each featuring a stamped AWE logo. The tips are individually adjustable, allowing for customization of their depth into the bumper based on personal preference.

Nope, It’s Not Valved

• During research and development, AWE conducted an extensive evaluation of the factory valve’s behavior under various driving conditions. They determined that there is no significant change in volume between modes requiring a valve. The valve remains closed only in comfort mode, opening upon reaching a throttle threshold. In Sport and Sport+ modes, the valve stays open, with Sport+ introducing burbles from the ECU. In the stock configuration, the exhaust routes through the side mufflers when the valve is closed to reduce interior volume and drone-prone frequencies, and through the center when the valve is open.

Conversion Kits

• AWE has made it simple to convert between Track and Touring Editions if a change in interior volume is desired later.
