The BCS Valveless Turbo-back (with cat delete pipe) PRESTIGE exhaust is our OEM + option for the Audi A3 2.0 TFSi, providing you with a moderately uplifted sound over and above the stock exhaust note, creating a genuine audible upgrade for your A3.
The system has a greater audible volume than the cat back offering, however, with careful design and development we have created a system that ensures that any unwanted in-car frequencies are removed, leaving you with a perfect drone-free experience, together with our characterful pop and burble, free-revving sound.
The primary use for the Prestige turbo back with cat delete variant system, is the track or closed/private road, as this product is illegal for road use.
As with virtually all of the TFSi engined vehicles, there is very little performance gain to be had from the cat-back system on its own, due to the incredibly restrictive downpipe and twin OEM cats. However, by opting for our unique downpipe and high flow cat delete pipe, the power potential will massively increase, firstly with an initial 22bhp kinetic, and then once mapped all the way up to stage 3 the following figures are achievable (along with suitable additional hardware...)

The TFSi K04-based BYD BWJ BHZ CDL Performance guide
(all Performance figures are based on levels achieved by R-Tech Performance)
If you require more power from your A3 we recommend the 76mm (up to 400 bhp) or 90mm (400 bhp+) downpipe to go with this system.
As the original rubber mount for the center silencer is prone to wear in regards to its ability to support and prevent excessive movement, we recommend its replacement with the upgraded VW rubber as shown below.
