For S5 owners who want even more from the 4.2-liter V8, AWE builds Non-Resonated Downpipes. They swap the factory post-cat resonated downpipes for unfiltered, larger-diameter tubing that produces a far more aggressive sound profile, letting the naturally aspirated V8 come through clearly at every rpm.
They are the perfect partner for the AWE Touring Edition Exhaust when you want more volume, or a way to uncork the tone of the AWE Track Edition even further. They also work with the factory exhaust. Because they are post-cat parts, the catalytic converters stay on the car.
The downpipes are made from T304L stainless steel, bolt in with no tune required, and carry AWE's Lifetime Exhaust Warranty, Perfect Fitment Guarantee and No Check Engine Light Guarantee.

Resonated or non-resonated?
Non-resonated is louder and more aggressive. The AWE Resonated Downpipes keep a resonator for a mellower tone.
Are the cats removed?
No. These replace the post-cat sections only.
Do I need a tune?
No. AWE guarantees no check engine light when installed properly.
