Rear silencer Capristo Audi RS5 F5 Sportback

02AU00503023

Valved rear silencer for the Audi RS5 F5 Sportback with the 2.9 TFSI EA839 biturbo V6. The Sportback has its own rear floor and silencer layout, so the part differs from the coupe version even though the engine is the same.

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, rated for continuous temperatures above 600 C, hand TIG welded and polished to a mirror finish in Sundern, Germany. The parts are engineered with 3D laser scanning, CAD and CNC bending from the original pipework.

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, several shapes are available;
• Installation uses the original mounting points and is reversible.

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