8Y exhaust trims
- Thread starter 8YARWY
- Start date
Looks like it doesn't it? I'd be curious to see what the differences are between the sports exhaust system and the standard system are within this catalogue since both the trim pieces are in the same diagram it makes me wonder if it's actually just the amount of sound pumped into the cabin?
No different from one to the other
Only price difference is sports exhaust is £100 dearer.
Probably a small resonance chamber of some sort.
The 2 pipes to the left connect up to the OPFs
Although in the chassis number for my car that lists options I did come across this.
Option GM1………

Dunno…… my original post was about tail trims..
Very odd as the 8V parts are drawn with 2 bullet silencers.

I still think that one of these will release more 'sound' than the Miltek, modern Audi's control these motors % open all the time, you can tell this simply going from neutral to in gear in Performance mode.
OOps! The Kufatek 8V exhaust module
Being as Miltek in the video supply their new exhaust complete with operating valves I would think (90 % sure) the Kufatec system should work with the 8Y

I'm contemplating the Cete version to control them
After emailing Ferdi yesterday he explained there are 2 versions now, one that is operated from the ESC button like before, and the other is tied into the drive select settings........
A shame all the installation/User are in German
Jeez I'm having a bad day, just found the English version
Looks like res deletes will be a thing then!No different from one to the other

As for option GM1, refer to my posts about piped in sound. There's no exhaust skulduggery, just engine noise.
I presume the usual protagonists are aware of this middle chamber, if not I might pinch that pic and send to BCS.

8V sports exhaust had a single bypass valve just on passenger side only. That was only change vs standard exhaust.

I know as I’ve checked all the Gateway for any sound modules etc
My gut says that drawing maybe wrong in that section if you look at Mikes video above.

On the FL the rear bullets are shorter than standard.

This might be pumping sound in to cabin..look under rear bumper near wheel

I've just put my Chassis number into Etka and any sound noise speakers etc are greyed out, suggesting they aren't fitted.

What website (I assume?) is it you use for the parts
Diagrams etc?
Looks like an Audi version of realoem.com (which is for BMWs)?
I wonder if it has a second job of exhaust sound to both inside and outside as well as a 'sub'
I wonder that a little as well because on the test drive when the car was in the RS modes I found that under hard acceleration there was a slight vibration/rattle from the back left. In the back of my head I did wonder if it was a speaker vibrating or something.
I started the car today in Performance mode and ran around the rear, laid down with a piece of fuel pipe stuck in my ear and put it next to that rear speaker, nothing at standstill,
That's fair enough, it was definitely only 5-7k rpm at full chat that I noticed the rattle/vibration. Could just be that the car was ragged from new and never had a chance for the speakers to settle in (if that sub is outputting some sound).
I thought I would catch it while it was still 'noisy' after initial start up, the speaker was quiet at that point, but yes I agree it could have an output at certain other rpm/load/speeds
Will know in the next few days, the rear left trim will be out so I can fit dash cam i-volt battery.
