Hello all,
I'm new to the forum, I have recently purchased a 2017 audi A5 S-line coupe and so far i'm loving it.
I tend to modify my cars slightly and looking for some options to fit the S5 rear diffuser on my car. In short I really like the look the S5 diffuser gives with the extra chrome edge. I also want to fit the Black Edition lip spoiler, but to keep the chrome to black ratio in balance I need some chrome on the rear of the car. Plus in addition, 4 exhaust just looks better. I will add at no point will I be removing my A5 badges, before people start saying fake S5 etc... blah... .
The technical part come to fitting 4 exhaust pipe. There are many routes I could go, full custom exhaust, but to be honest I've done the whole noisy performance exhaust on my old car. I've really enjoying to quietness of the A5, and the 'Pumped in' sound is enough for me.
I have thought about getting the S5 rear boxes and doing the electronics to get the valves working etc.. but I don't really know if it's still going to be loud with one working pipe, as the silencers/resonators are smaller in size than the standard rear boxes.
The other thought I have had is to cut the blanks and weld an extra set of pipes on the standard silencers as they look identical to the TDI exhausts that have 2 outlets. Same metal stamp. But I don't know how the internals are setup.
Another thought is the rear silencers look very similar to the B8.5 rear boxes in shape. I know these have 4 outlets without valves. Would these fit?
Sorry for so many questions. Below is my old car and my new A5.
Thanks, Martin.
