Exhaust (with headers!): video

Post by Gardus@Supersprint » Wed Oct 27, 2010 1:54 pm

Here is the video of an RS4 with the complete exhaust.
No cat, 4 into 1 headers (prototype still under development) and cat back.
I think it sounds nice! The car has a custom remap and a filter.

What do you think?

Power is around 420hp (it had less than 370 stock) and A LOT of torque at all revs.

I wouldn't want to buy that car after that kind of treatment !!

Assuming its the video that makes it sound less throaty? Personally i prefer the OEM sound, but its very hard to judge sound by low quality video playback. It just doesn't sound deep enough, or even loud enough over the engine noise....

Just my take but it sounds a bit asthmatic?

The sound is very different live...the HD camera and the microphone I used for the S4 video (see the thread in the other section) arrived a few days later, so I had to do it with what I have (a SD Sony camera with the standard, poor mic...the instruments shoot is taken with a Nokia phone!!)

The sound is deeper, and it's louder than the standard exhaust. A bit wilder too, because it's decat. I hope to have the car around one more time, or another RS4.

The driver is the owner of the car. He said the clutch was slipping and he couldn't launch it perfectly; about the limiter, maybe he was doing it on purpose, to let me hear the sound it makes? The car reaches 8500 so fast sometimes it's hard to not hit it.

Yes I work at Supersprint.

Where do you live?

I can't tell you the exact price and availability, but probably December.
I suggest to ask to your local dealer and place an order, for a new product we start the production when there's a sufficient number of orders, usually there are no problems with Audi S/RS products.
Prices are around 4000$ for downpipe and metallic cats (HJS high quality) R + L, 900$ for the silenced xpipe, 190 for the non silenced one, and 1200 for the rear exhausts, R+L

Dyno charts we'll be available as soon as I get them from the boss!
I'm not considering eventual discounts or speciale offers.

It was more the headers I was interested in.

D'OH! I thought I was answering on the S4 exhaust thread!!

The headers are still under development, we'll try another primaries diameter before starting production, we think there's still room for improvement, especially on the top range of revs.
I can't tell you when, it would be pointless. Prices will be similar to other SS headers of V8 cars, like the C63 amg for example.
