Audi C8, RS6/RS7 Stainless Steel Resonator Delete Mid Pipe

Audi C8 RS6/RS7 Stainless Steel Resonator Delete Mid Pipe

Remove one of the last restrictions in your Audi RS6 or RS7 exhaust with this Stainless Steel Resonator Delete Mid Pipe, a straight-through replacement for the heavily silenced factory centre section.

The factory resonators sit between the downpipes and the rear silencers and exist purely to kill sound. Deleting them lets the 4.0L twin-turbo V8 speak properly, unlocking the deep, hard-edged bark the standard car keeps muted, and removing a genuine flow restriction at the same time.

This is the modification RS6 and RS7 owners reach for first, because it changes the character of the car dramatically for a fraction of the cost of a full exhaust, and it does so without touching the rear silencers or the tips. The car looks completely standard.

Manufactured from stainless steel with mandrel bends and high temperature TIG welding, with integrated flex sections to absorb drivetrain movement, and using the factory mounting points and clamp positions for a direct bolt on installation.

Fit it alone for a substantial gain in volume and tone, or alongside downpipes and a catback to complete the exhaust path.

Key Features

Straight Through Resonator Delete

Replaces the factory resonated centre section entirely, removing the silencing that suppresses the V8 tone.

Stainless Steel Construction

Corrosion resistant stainless steel built to withstand sustained high exhaust gas temperatures.

Integrated Flex Sections

Braided flex joints absorb engine and drivetrain movement, protecting the joints and keeping the system settled on the road.

Mandrel Bent Tubing

Maintains a consistent internal diameter through every bend so flow is never choked.

High Temperature TIG Welding

Clean, strong welds engineered for demanding performance use.

Completely Hidden

Sits under the centre of the car with no visible change to the rear bumper or tips, so the exterior stays entirely standard.

Direct Bolt On Fitment

Uses the factory mounting points and clamp positions, with no cutting or welding required.

Performance Benefits

• Removes the restrictive factory resonators
• Increased exhaust flow efficiency
• Deep, aggressive twin-turbo V8 tone
• Noticeably greater volume with the factory rear exhaust retained
• No visible change to the exterior of the car
• Completes the exhaust path when paired with downpipes and a catback

Performance gains may vary depending on ECU calibration and supporting modifications.

Please Note

Professional installation is strongly recommended.

This is a mid pipe section only. Downpipes and the rear exhaust section are not included.

Removing factory silencing will increase cabin noise and may introduce some drone at certain engine speeds. Sound characteristics vary depending on which other exhaust components are fitted.
