Welcome back to my channel guys. In this video i briefly talk about the awesome exhaust note of the new facelift Audi S3 Sedan. Audi have made a couple of nifty improvements in the facelift versions of the car one of them being the change in the exhaust note. What they have in essence done is added a fuel overrun which dumps a bit of un-burnt fuel into the exhaust which is what creates those pops and bangs on downshifts and letting off the throttle.

In this vid i try to demonstrate the exhaust note under various conditions. Now, i do mention that it is not actually all that audible when sitting inside the cabin with the windows rolled up but it could probably be improved by the addition of a downpipe or say a cat-back exhaust. I currently do not have either of those installed so for the time being i have disabled the exhaust valve actuators so that the flaps are permanently open. This has a made a noticeable improvement in the tone at low revs which is where i do most of my driving.

Hope you guys enjoy the vid and if you have any questions please do hit me up in the comment section below. Please like, share and subscribe if you're enjoying the content.
