EV - Evolution
The Audi S range of cars features high-performance V8 engines that are a perfect match for the Akrapovic Evolution exhaust systems.Styled and designed in-house by Akrapovic’s engineers, the Audi S range of Evolution exhausts include valves that are steered through electric actuators designed to alter their position depending on the vehicle’s driving program and the driver’s style.
They can also be changed in the car’s individual program settings.The addition of an Evolution exhaust will increase power and torque levels, while decreasing weight and adding the unique Akrapovic sound. Evolution exhausts give the car a noticeably different character, with a deep sound at lower revs and a sportier note as the revs rise.
With four, superbly styled round carbon-fibre tailpipes, the Evolution system looks as good as it works on Audi S models.This cat-back performance exhaust system leaves the stock catalytic converters in place, so there is no need to remap the ECU.
Its easy-to-fit instructions make installation a simple, plug-and play task.

For the ultimate in weight reduction, tuning potential, and racing sound, Akrapovic offers stainless steel, cat-less downpipes to make the Audi an even more powerful machine.
This setup is intended for dedicated track-day cars and enthusiasts, and it will also add to the overall experience of what’s already a stunning performance car for any discerning driver. Delivering great sound, without creating unwanted cabin noise, these beautifully-crafted downpipes offer an upgrade to Akrapovic’s Evolution exhaust system.
Downpipes must be combined with one of the front link pipe set. Choose L-AU/SS/3 if the car is equiped with Akrapovic aftermarket evolution line exhaust system or L-AU/SS/4 if it is fitted with Akrapovic exhaust system developed for Audi Sport (Audi product code for S6/S7 - 4G0071897, for RS6 /RS7 - 4G0089253A00).
When installing Akrapovic aftermarket optional down pipes with sports catalytic converters or without catalytic converters, which are developed for use on closed tracks only, remapping the ECU is mandatory.
When installing Akrapovic aftermarket exhaust system that was developed for use on closed tracks, we recommend remapping the ECU in order to prevent potential »check engine light« warning signals.
