APR Catback Exhaust System - S4 / S5 (B9) - CBK0012

Introducing the APR Catback Exhaust System for the Audi B9 S4 and S5

The APR Catback Exhaust System for the Audi B9 S4 and S5 is a complete, high-performance exhaust solution that runs the entire length of the vehicle from the catalyst back. Inspired by the larger center-pipe design of the higher-output RS4 and RS5 models, this system is engineered to boost performance, elevate sound, and enhance aesthetics with customizable exhaust tips that are sure to make a statement. Crafted from premium materials and built with advanced manufacturing techniques, this system is designed to withstand harsh conditions and deliver lasting performance. Expect a bold, aggressive growl at wide-open throttle, along with an impressive gain of 10 horsepower and 12 FT-LBS of torque to all four wheels!

Unmatched Design and Precision Engineering

Unlike anything currently available, the APR system includes downpipes extending to the factory catalyst in the upper engine bay, making this a true full-system upgrade. We’ve minimized restrictions with smooth transitions, oversized piping, and straight-through mufflers and resonators. Constructed from mandrel-bent T304 stainless steel with a brushed finish and TIG welding throughout, this exhaust system is as durable as it is striking. Installation is hassle-free, thanks to precision-fit brackets, OEM-style slip clamps, and an included upgraded tunnel brace to accommodate the oversized piping.

Inspired by RS Performance

Like the RS4 and RS5, this system features a reengineered exhaust routing design. It utilizes dual 2.5” (63.5mm) downpipes to dual 2.75” (70mm) midpipes pipes merging through a cast Y-junction into a massive 3.5” (91mm) midpipe, replacing the restrictive factory dual-pipe setup. The integrated Helmholtz resonator minimizes drone through a straight-through design with a sound-canceling port, ensuring no compromise in exhaust flow.

The system splits again via another cast Y into two rear, valve-controlled mufflers with sound absorption technology. These valves are fully integrated with the OEM control system, adjusting automatically to enhance sound during aggressive driving while maintaining a quieter profile during cruising. Finally, exhaust gases exit through dual cast Y-junctions into a quad 2.5” (63.5mm) system, terminating in 3.5” (91mm) lightweight, single-walled motorsport-style tips. The tips feature a polished stainless steel finish and a subtle APR logo for a refined touch.
