Mine...

I purchased a pre-owned AWE 3.2 track system
I used only the mid muffler and ran my own 2.25 SS pipe to Magnaflow dual wall 4" tips

Tips...


Volant Intake...
Difficult to hear in video but it provides a great sound, especially audible without an exhaust. Even with, the combo, at around 3.5k revs sounds amazing.
As for performance...increased throttle response is noticable but I will not claim any other gains.

Carbonio CAI with Eurocode Turbo Intake pipe



The intake helped with some minor improvement in power, almost not noticeable. However, my mileage went up. Cruising at 80mph, I used to average about 29-30 mpg before, and now I average about 31-32mpg. When I cruised at 60mph, I couldn't believe it when I saw 36mpg average. The downside to this install is the whiny noise of the turbo. In the beginning it was bearable, but now it's becoming annoying . I'll still keep it in until I can't take it anymore or find a better alternative.

Eurocode HFIP and Intercooler piping






I installed both of these together so I can't really comment on each product individually. The point of installing these was to reduce the turbo lag, which it did, but not as much as I hoped. I can definitely feel the turbo spooling up much quicker than stock which is a plus in itself and the turbo does feel better in tune with engine after the install. Downside is the lag isn't completely eliminated and is still somewhat noticeable. One thing I did notice after I installed this and my friend pointed it out is that with the CAI, there seems to be a bit more 'growl' to the engine when revving. Maybe that's just in my head. On another note, If you get the Eurocode Intercooler, these parts already come with it as package and you don't have to by it separate.

I HAD an s5 with the billy boat sport exhaust.

Looks: The exhaust tips were pretty big, looks really nice from behind

Sounds: IMO it's a very subtle and passively loud exhaust ( if that made any sense). Good enough for people who want a slighter louder than stock sound. People who's looking for a tank like v8 growl, look elsewhere

Fitment: Horrible. Exhaust was shorter on one side, had to get extension piping to make it fully fit. Bottom of exhaust hangs too low as its rounded and not flat when leanin against the belly of the car ( exhaust fell off when I hot a sewer cap).

Price: got mine from AMI for a decent price (1250).

Final thoughts: looks good but sounds are not aggressive enough. Fitment was definitely off and needs modification.

[teky929rr]

LOL Mop I was trying to show an example of what not to do ;P

[GSS5]

I have the AWE Track exhaust on my car without downpipes. I had the Milltek non resonated system before that and to be concise, don't even bother.

here's the most recent video of my car. getting non-resonated downpipes installed this weekend so hopefully more vids to come.

lol. that was the sonic boom from my super duper awe exhaust making my car go the speed of light. or it was the wind noise.

[VicTorious1]

Greg, I'm not sure what you used to record your exhaust, but I think you have one of the best sounding videos of an AWE Track exhaust.

[GSS5]

Thank you :)

I actually have no idea what camera it was as it belonged to the owner of the s4 (camera car) but it captured the sound very accurately.

Here's a videoclip of mine with the AWE Track Edition exhaust. Stay tuned for the downshift at 2:05!



And this is what happened after my most recent track event, lol. Tips shifted and dug into the valence due to the high temps.

AWE S-filter coming soon!

And here's the video:

[Mops@Nemesis]

Picked up an S5 valence (great buy from Tboooe...thanks again) and sprayed it satin black. Tips are from Solo Performance. They are of great quality and I like that there is little taper and the tips are longer than any I have seen (also thanks to Tboooe for tracking these down). I had to redo the tail pipes to accomodate with a larger pipe and new format. This came out as a win....there are noticable gains performance wise and smooter accel. The fit is as good as possible...I even stood on a ladder to get them even while the shop lined them up. Gaps are dead on as well as poke. Only flaw is one side runs a bit up hill (Tboooe is the only person that would notice:).
