Cobra Sport performance exhausts enhance the sound, looks and quality of your vehicle giving you the ultimate driving experience. Our sports exhausts range is fully guaranteed to give you assurance of our quality.

This Audi S3 performance exhaust is made in 3″/76.2mm pipework and fits from the catalytic converter section backwards (Cat-back) these exhausts replace the centre and rear sections.

The resonated sports exhaust option includes the centre silencer and has a subtle but sporty tone. This exhaust is also available as a non-resonated version (excluding the centre silencer) which is a louder option, as it excludes the centre silencer and therefore, has a sportier exhaust note.

This performance exhaust retains the use of exhaust valves. When switching drive modes (e.g. Comfort to Dynamic mode) your exhaust tone will continue to swop from quieter to louder tones as before.

Press Release

With a potent 2.0 TFSI engine and sure-footed quattro all-wheel drive, the latest generation of Audi S3 is a premium package. For those looking to awaken the sound and unlock the performance of their vehicle, Cobra Sport has the solution.

Precision TIG-welded from T304 stainless steel, this new valved system has been specially developed to integrate with the Audi Drive modes. The valves open or close depending on the mode selected – so you can keep sound levels in check or unleash the full potential of the engine.

With valves open, the sound is amplified to deliver a thrilling, aggressive note (+13dB in Dynamic Mode with non resonated cat back) but without any unwanted drone. The gear change on S-tronic models is also enhanced with a more sporty tone.

Available as a resonated and non-resonated (louder) cat back setup, this 3 inch system is the perfect accompaniment to any S3 (8V). For those looking to go further, Cobra Sport sports cat/de-cat front pipes may be specified to create a full turbo-back system. With a remap, considerable power gains are achievable.

A range of 3.5in (90mm) tailpipes options are available, including highly polished inverted tips, Ceramic-coated Blackout tips (optional extra) and the latest Carbon Fibre tips (optional extra), which would provide the finishing touch to any S3.

Like all Cobra Sport exhausts, this system utilises precision TIG-welding techniques for exemplary fit and finish – a feature that sets Cobra Sport apart from other manufacturers.
