Description
Akrapovic exhaust system, Audi RS Q8 (4M) 2020-2023
This beautifully formed exhaust has sound and performance running right through it. Constructed entirely from low-weight, high-grade titanium, it features a central muffler flanked by two valves (the housings of both valves are cast at the in-house Akrapovič foundry) and a link pipe set with an X-connection element. With unique sound patterns designed to offer maximum enjoyment, the X-connection in the link pipe section gives the exhaust system a characteristic Akrapovič high-frequency racing tone in the upper rev range, which is complemented by the deep and iconic Akrapovič rumble from low down in the rev range. Driver can also choose the so called comfort mode, with no unwanted noise or drone in the cabin. Finished with eye-catching carbon-fibre / titanium tailpipes exiting on both sides. This exhaust also increases power by 4.6 kW at 6,200 rpm and adds 5.9 Nm of torque at 3,500 rpm when tested on Akrapovič’s in-house dyno in back-to-back runs with RS Q8 against the stock RS Sport exhaust system. It is a plug-and-play product, and due to its ECE type approval there is no need to tune the ECU. Check the optional Akrapovič Sound Kit and Downpipe / Link pipe set (SS). Note: With the installation of the Downpipe / Link pipe set (SS), ECE type approval for the Evolution Line (Titanium) exhaust system is not valid, and remapping the ECU is mandatory when it is fitted. Same applies when used with optional Sound Kit.
Akrapovic is known as one of, if not the most high-quality exhaust pipe brand in the automotive industry, which has also worked as a manufacturer of original pipes, e.g. for car brands like Koenigsegg. In addition, Akrapovic has more than 160 years of heritage in motorsport, both as an expert in motorcycle and car exhaust systems.
The manufacturer is known for its lightweight titanium pipes with their signature sound. Details of these systems, depending on the product, are typically finished with the highest quality prepreg carbon fiber or kevlar. Futurez Oy operates as Akrapovic’s authorized dealer in Finland, we also install all Akrapovic systems locally at our customs shop.

Akrapovic exhaust system types
Depending on the model, Akra’s selection typically includes a easy Slip-on upgrade, which in some models can be expanded into an even more comprehensive, race/track oriented Evolution series package. In some models, Evolution system might be recommended with tuning of the engine or needs adjustments to the modern emission systems (OPF engines). In some models, a Downpipe upgrade to the beginning of the exhaust is also available. See related products from the end of this product site.
Depending on the model, additional accessories for Akrapovic systems include carbon fiber rear diffusers or other upgrades that adapt the appearance of the new piping.
The Akrapovic Sound-Kit is an optional add-on to be installed in systems equipped with flap valves, this add-on enables manual control of the exhaust flaps from the switch / key fob on the dashboard, or from the Bluetooth application on the mobile phone.

- In models with exhaust flaps, system integrates to OEM CANbus and control system
- The signature sound that is refined during the several months long development process
- Fully flow-optimized design for performance
