Rear silencer Capristo Audi RS5 F5 Coupe

02AU00503013

Valved rear silencer for the Audi RS5 F5 Coupe with the 2.9 TFSI EA839 biturbo V6. The turbochargers absorb much of the sound before the exhaust begins, so the rear section decides how much of the V6 actually reaches the driver.

How it works

The valves stay closed at light load, so cruising noise is close to standard. Opened, the gas path shortens and bypasses the damping chambers, which is where the volume and the sharper response come from.

Material and build

T309 (1.4828) stainless steel, hand TIG welded and polished to a mirror finish in Sundern, Germany. The silencer is developed on 3D laser scans of the original pipework and bolts to the standard hangers without cutting.

Before you order

• The silencer works with the standard mid-section or with the Capristo system;
• On cars with a particulate filter the effect is stronger together with OPF replacement pipes;
• Tailpipes are chosen separately;
• The part is lighter than the stock silencer and installation is reversible.

Capristo Automotive GmbH has built valved exhaust systems since 1990 and holds several patents on its valve technology.
