Akrapovič Audi RS3 (8Y) OPF/GPF Sound Kit

The optional Akrapovič Sound Kit gives owners of the OPF/GPF-equipped Audi RS3 (8Y) genuine, direct control over the sound of their exhaust system from the cockpit. Rather than being locked into whatever character the car's drive mode happens to dictate, this kit puts that decision back in your hands, letting you switch between a quiet, more restrained mode and a genuinely sportier, more dynamic five-cylinder note on demand, whenever and wherever suits you.

At the core of the system is a receiver, already integrated as part of the Evolution system, which drives the actuators responsible for physically opening or closing the valves at the end of the exhaust. You can regulate these valves in two ways: through Akrapovič's dedicated Sound Remote Controller, a simple, purpose-built hardware unit, or through their smartphone app, available for both iOS and Android, giving you genuinely flexible, on-the-fly control without needing a separate physical remote rattling around in the car.

Specifically matched to OPF/GPF-equipped RS3 models, this Sound Kit is designed to work correctly alongside Akrapovič's own exhaust systems for this particulate-filter-equipped platform, letting you get the fullest expression of that distinctive five-cylinder character for weekend or spirited driving, while still being able to dial things back to something more neighbour-friendly for the daily commute.

Important: using this optional Sound Kit invalidates ECE type approval for the exhaust system it's fitted to. If retaining road-legal type approval matters for your specific market or use case, this is worth weighing carefully against the genuine convenience and flexibility the kit provides.
