Product Description

The AWE 3020-43897 is the Track Edition Cat-Back Exhaust for the 2022-2026 Audi S3 Sedan (8Y) with Diamond Black tips -- identical in construction and performance to the Chrome Silver variant (3020-42897) with the sole distinction being the tip finish. The Track Edition delivers an aggressive, high-volume exhaust character built for drivers who want maximum sound presence at all RPMs. The system is constructed from CNC mandrel-bent 3" and 2.5" .065"-wall T304L stainless steel sourced in the United States, featuring a minimal resonator design with a single bullet resonator in the center section to maximize exhaust flow while preserving the patented 180 Technology® drone-free experience. Four individually adjustable 4.5" double-walled slash-cut diamond black tips exit at the rear, and the slip-fit inlet adapter accommodates the factory downpipe with an open 3" connection. AWE's Perfect Fitment Guarantee covers the installation experience, and the No CEL Guarantee ensures no check engine lights appear when the system is installed properly on an otherwise stock vehicle. Dyno-verified gains of +7 wheel horsepower and +2 lb-ft of torque are documented at the wheels. The 3020-43897 is the Diamond Black tip variant. The Chrome Silver version is available as AWE 3020-42897. Drivers who prefer a quieter, drone-free sound profile should consider the Touring Edition (3015-43897 Black / 3015-42897 Chrome). Conversion kits are available separately to switch between editions without replacing the entire system. Handcrafted and manufactured in-house at AWE's facility in Pennsylvania, USA, and backed by AWE's Lifetime Warranty.
