Milltek Filter-back Exhaust for Audi S8 D5 4.0 TFSI V8 Saloon/Sedan - Standard Wheel Base (Non OPF/GPF US/ROW Models) (2020 onwards) – Sharper Sound, Filter Retained
This is Milltek's particulate filter-back system for the Audi S8 D5 4.0 TFSI V8 Saloon/Sedan (OPF/GPF UK/Euro Models). It replaces everything downstream of the factory diesel or petrol particulate filter with wider-bore pipework and re-tuned silencers, cutting back pressure and sharpening the exhaust note. The filter itself is left exactly where the manufacturer fitted it, so emissions equipment is unaffected. It's offered in non-resonated or resonated EC approved versions and 5 tailpipe finishes, so you can pick the setup that suits how the car's used.
It's the right choice if you want a sportier sound and a genuine, if modest, flow improvement on a filter-equipped car, without going anywhere near the parts of the system that keep it emissions-compliant.

What's the difference between the resonated and non-resonated versions?
The resonated version adds extra silencing for a quieter, more refined tone. The non-resonated version leaves it out, so it is louder and more aggressive.
Which tailpipe finishes are available?
You can choose from: GT-115 Burnt Titanium, GT-115 Cerakote Black, GT-115 Polished, GT-115 Titanium, JET-115 Carbon Fibre. The finish is cosmetic and does not change the sound.
Will it fit the Audi S8 D5 4.0 TFSI V8 Saloon/Sedan (OPF/GPF UK/Euro Models)?

Is it road legal?

Do I need a remap?
No. It fits behind the factory particulate filter, so no software changes are needed.
Does it keep the factory particulate filter?

How long does it take to fit?
