APR Catback Exhaust System (CBK0003) for Audi 8V S3 (2015-2020)
If you're looking to enhance the performance and sound of your 2015-2020 Audi 8V S3, the APR Catback Exhaust System (CBK0003) is the upgrade you need. This system isn’t just about looks; it’s designed to deliver a deep, aggressive exhaust note that will turn heads while maintaining optimal performance.
Craftsmanship and Design
Constructed from high-quality T304 stainless steel, this exhaust system features meticulous TIG welding throughout, ensuring durability and a sleek finish. The straight-through brushed-finished mufflers provide a smooth exhaust note, allowing your S3 to roar without any restrictions. Plus, the integrated Helmholtz resonator minimizes unwanted frequencies, giving you a refined sound that’s music to your ears.
Installation and Fitment
Installing the APR Catback Exhaust is a straightforward process, thanks to the high-quality bracketry and OEM-style clamps that secure the system in place. This ensures a precise fit that makes both installation and removal a breeze. The cast 3" to quad 2.5" rear splitter promotes a seamless transition for exhaust gases, while keeping everything tidy under your rear bumper.
Retain OEM Features
One of the standout features of this exhaust system is its compatibility with your factory electronic valve actuators. The cast valve housings allow you to retain OEM valve operation, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds: performance and functionality.
