Maintaining and utilizing the factory valve behavior, SwitchPath™ tech obeys orders given via the MMI and Drive Select to determine its mood just as the stock exhaust would. When the valves are closed, the SwitchPath™ Exhaust produces a sophisticated soundtrack. At cruising speeds, interior acoustics are close to stock with no drone thanks to the 180 Technology® resonator. SwitchPath™ tech also responds perfectly to Drive Select, so if you drop the hammer while cruising, expect it to behave just like factory. Open the valves and the 4.0TT’s roar is uncorked. Dynamic mode achieves the ultimate contrast in behavior when compared to comfort driving modes. The exhaust note is powerful, clean, and aggressive. Thanks to the 180 Technology®-equipped resonator in the center, drone-prone frequencies are still kept in check while allowing the exhaust note to reach full aggression. Now, let's chat about tips: given the RS’ interior sound deadening, it made hearing the enhanced exhaust sound a challenge. Enter AWE’s parabolic tip design–the ReflecTip–engineered to reflect the exhaust note toward the driver. They’re 31% larger than the stock tips, fill the valance perfectly, and come standard in AWE’s signature diamond black finish. They mount independently to the bumper via included brackets allowing them to float around the outlets of the SwitchPath™ exhaust, reflect off of the inner geometry of the tips, and back towards you. AWE SwitchPath™ Exhausts come complete with two AWE parabolic tips in diamond black, two valve extension harnesses, and all required hardware and bracketry for installation. AWE's Lifetime Warranty, No CEL Light Guarantee, and Perfect Fitment Guarantee come standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem Type: Cat-Back Exhaust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdition: SwitchPath\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine: 4.0TT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTubing: Dual 3 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResonator: Straight-through center resonator with 180 Technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValve Control: Maintains factory valve behavior via MMI and Drive Select\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTips: Two parabolic ReflecTip tips, Diamond Black, 31% larger than stock, mounted to the bumper with included brackets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded: Two tips, two valve extension harnesses, all hardware and brackets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear-Wheel Steering: Fits models with and without\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGains: Max +8 hp and +14 lb-ft at the wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: T304L stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured: In-house by AWE, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart Number: 3025-33776\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRespect the oval: proprietary parabolic ReflecTip™ design amplifies exhaust note towards the driver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA bespoke SwitchPath™ design featuring patented drone-canceling 180 Technology®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependently-mounted tip brackets secure to the bumper via factory locations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLess is more: clean, straight-through design for maximum performance and tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProudly engineered, designed, and manufactured in-house, in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDyno-proven max gains of 8 hp and 14 lb-ft of torque at the wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains factory valve behavior via MMI and Drive Select\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50-state emissions-compliant dual 3” catback exhaust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits models with and without rear-wheel steering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure bolt-on, no-cutting required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect Fitment Guarantee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAWE No CEL Guarantee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Part Fits:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\" width=\"100\"\u003eYear\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\" width=\"125\"\u003eMake\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\" width=\"150\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"left\" width=\"80\"\u003eSubmodel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2021-2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRS6 Avant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2024-2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRS6 Avant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePerformance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2021-2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRS7 Sportback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2024-2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRS7 Sportback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePerformance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch5\u003eWhat comes in the box?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eAWE includes two parabolic ReflecTip tips in Diamond Black, two valve extension harnesses, and all required hardware and brackets for installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eWhich vehicles does this fit?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003ePer the fitment data, it fits the 2021-2026 Audi RS6 Avant (Base, Performance); 2021-2026 Audi RS7 Sportback (Base, Performance).
