Description

Will the AWE Cat-Back SwitchPath system fit my 2015-2020 Audi S3?
Yes, this cat-back is engineered as a direct bolt-on fit for the 2015 through 2020 Audi S3 model.

How does the exhaust note change with the SwitchPath system?
The valved passenger-side tip outlet seamlessly integrates with your S3's ECU, obeying throttle input for intelligent sound control.

AWE Cat-Back SwitchPath is engineered for the 2015-2020 Audi S3, delivering a 9/10 score for Street Performance by retaining factory valve behavior for intelligent sound control. Handcrafted from 3-inch and 2.5-inch U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel, this cat-back system guarantees a resonant, aggressive exhaust note. Experience enhanced driving with confidence in its premium construction and precise fitment.

What Owners Say

Owners and enthusiasts consistently praise the AWE SwitchPath for its fantastic build quality and deep, throaty tone that transforms the stock sound without excessive drone at highway speeds—at least with valves closed. The system delivers a loud, aggressive growl in sport mode and a refined rumble when subdued, making it versatile for different driving scenarios. When paired with downpipes, many find the sound and volume ideal. However, some G80/G82 owners report noticeable low-to-mid range drone with non-resonated midpipes, which can be disappointing given the investment. Despite this concern, the SwitchPath has earned a solid reputation as a premium exhaust option that delivers on both sound character and construction quality.

Key Features

  • handcrafted 3-inch and 2.5-inch U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel
  • valved passenger-side tip outlet
  • retains the factory valve behavior
  • obeys the S3’s ECU commands based on throttle input, engine speed, and Drive Select
  • 102mm double-walled, slash-cut tips
