Got an a5 2.0Tfsi stage 1 remapped to 278bhp.

Only thing is I want the exhaust sound louder. Any recommendations with links for which air filter to buy for this?

I've heard K&N air filters achieve this - anyone got any experience with these and could possibly share a link so I can buy it?

Thanks

The change would be minimal in a turbo car, if at all notifiable, you are more likely to hear a little more induction noise under boost. That said for a stage 1 the factory filter is fine, but if you feel the need a drop in K&N panel filter is a good mod. Best thing for more exhaust sound is a high flow muffler to replace resonator or go for a proper cat back system from Miltek or Cobra

I see. My air filter needs a change anyway so even if it's only a little difference i'm still down to try it out. Any idea where to get one from?

Also yeah thanks for your suggestions for exhaust sound. Would replacing the resonator with a high flow muffler be the cheapest option? I'm happy to pay £200 max.

Peligro mate you will get more INTAKE noise with K and N but not exhaust!!! BMC and K&N are both excellent in my opinion and experience, the only things I change on my bikes are air filter and exhaust to let them breathe better and to remove some weight (exhaust).

Thanks for your reply mate and my bad not exhaust noise correct. Any idea where to get a K&N air filter? I typed it into ebay and lots of options came up...

Also in terms of exhaust sound what do you reckon is the cheapest option. Only willing to pay around £200

Thanks for the replies guys.

Can anyone suggest a cone air filter with a short ram intake for my A5? Or is that not a thing for the A5?

Also will the panel air filter make any difference to the sound - anyone there who has done this and can comment?
