Downpipes AUDI RSQ8 / SQ8 / SQ7 4.0L V8 Quattro + 200 CPSI High Flow Sports Catalytic Converters are aftermarket performance exhaust parts designed to improve the exhaust system of the Audi RSQ8. These BRONDEX® downpipes replace the factory catalytic converters and integrate High Flow Sports Catalytic Converters, allowing for better exhaust gas flow. The BRONDEX® downpipes for the Audi RSQ8 feature a design that starts with a larger diameter of 89 mm (3.5 inches) at the turbo flange and then tapers down to 76 mm (3 inches). This design, high quality materials and modern technologies combined with 200 CPSI High Flow Sports Catalytic Converters offers several key benefits:
- Increased Horsepower and Torque: By reducing backpressure and improving exhaust gas flow, these RSQ8 downpipes help to unleash more power from the engine.
- Improved Sound: 200 cell High Flow cats produce a more aggressive exhaust note, enhancing the driving experience.
- Enhanced Throttle Response: The reduced backpressure from High Flow cats can make the car feel more responsive to throttle inputs.
-
Quicker acceleration:
Freer exhaust flow means the turbos don’t have to work as hard to push exhaust gases through the system. This improve boost delivery and reduce spool times, resulting in quicker acceleration. - Bolt-On Fitment: The BRONDEX® downpipes are designed to align perfectly with the factory mounting brackets and locations on the Audi RSQ8. This ensures easy replacement of the OEM downpipes without the need for adjustments. The dimensions, angles, and positioning of the BRONDEX® downpipes are carefully crafted to match the stock exhaust system’s configuration.

Materials and technologies: High Performance downpipes from BRONDEX®, are constructed using 304-grade stainless steel, which is a high-quality material known for its:
Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, especially in the high-temperature environment of the exhaust system.
Durability: It can withstand the extreme heat and pressure generated by a turbocharged engine like the Audi RSQ8’s 4.0L twin-turbo V8.
Thermal Resistance: 304-grade stainless steel maintains its strength and integrity under the high exhaust temperatures, ensuring long-term reliability.
These AUDI RSQ8 downpipes feature CNC-machined flanges that ensure:
Perfect Fitment: The flanges are precision-cut to match the exact specifications of the vehicle’s exhaust system, allowing for a tight and secure fit.
Leak-Free Seal: A precisely machined flange helps ensure that there are no exhaust leaks, which is critical for performance and maintaining proper exhaust gas flow.
The BRONDEX® downpipes for the Audi RSQ8, constructed using TIG welding, offer superior durability and performance due to the precision and strength of the welding process. - Weight Savings: The BRONDEX® RSQ8 downpipes are lighter than the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) catalytic converters, potentially improving vehicle dynamics.
- Higher Potential for Further Tuning: The BRONDEX® RSQ8 downpipes are often used in conjunction with ECU tunes (like Stage 2), which can further optimize performance by adjusting the engine parameters to take advantage of the freer-flowing exhaust.
- Made in Europe: Audi RSQ8 downpipes being made in Europe underscores BRONDEX® adherence to high standards of precision engineering, material quality, and performance optimization. European manufacturing excellence ensures that these downpipes deliver both in terms of performance and durability (3-year warranty provided by BRONDEX®).
- Worldwide fast delivery: The worldwide fast delivery of BRONDEX® downpipes ensures that customers around the globe can quickly and efficiently receive these high-performance parts, enhancing their vehicles’ performance without extended wait times.
