Description
Kline Audi R8 Rear Valvetronic Section
This is a rear valvetronic system for the Audi R8 V8 2008-2012.
Performance
Removal of the secondary catalysts from the silencer section, and addition of a completely free flow system under valve open, result in optimum efficiency from the exhaust, and some moderate power and torque gains 16hp and 22 nm power and torque gain.
The Sound
Incorporating all the regular innovations from Kline, perfect x pipe geometry for that incendiary howl we have become renowned for, as well as a valvetronic system that allows you to drive your R8 silently when cruising, yet the most intoxicating high pitched aggressive vocal when the valves open. Under valve closure the exhaust gasses are diverted through a series of chambers and acoustic sections to completely remove any cabin noise and drone, at valve open the exhaust becomes completely free flow for optimum performance and sound, the gases only passing through our trademark x pipe, to effectively raise the pitch of the exhaust note.
