Akrapovič Evolution Line (Titanium) – Audi S3 Sedan (8Y) – 2020

Article number: S-AU/TI/18H

The Akrapovič Evolution Line (Titanium) for the Audi S3 Sedan (8Y) is a complete exhaust upgrade developed with lightweight, race-proven materials. The system combines titanium for the muffler and link pipe section with carbon fiber for two sets of newly designed, handcrafted tailpipes. The result is an exhaust system that is no less than 41% lighter than the original system.

The Evolution Line system is equipped with an exhaust valve whose housing is cast in Akrapovič's own foundry and is placed outside the muffler. This design feature ensures perfect gas flow and allows you to adjust the sound for the ultimate Akrapovič sound. This creates a smooth, full sound during normal cruising, with a deep and sporty tone when driving the Audi S3 more dynamically.

Performance has been significantly improved: power increases by 4 kW (5.4 hp) at 4,350 rpm and torque increases by 8.8 Nm at 3,900 rpm. These figures were measured on the Akrapovič dyno compared to an Audi S3 with a standard exhaust.

This system has ECE type approval and requires no ECU remapping – plug-and-play installation.
