Description
One of the VAG group companies Audi really became noticed as producers of performance road cars in the early 80’s with their release of the legendary Audi Ur Quattro, the world’s first all-wheel drive turbo production car. This was a real game changer which went on to win numerous world rally championships and sowed the seeds for their future high performance road cars. Scorpion has a heritage of producing high quality performance exhausts for these legends of the 80’s through to the highly sought-after performance models available currently.

GPF-Back System:
Our expert technicians have developed an 80mm/3.15” GPF-back system with quad 100mm tailpipes, specifically for the Audi SQ2 model. Explore the full specification breakdown and available options below!
This exhaust is available in two options: resonated, which includes a centre silencer to reduce drone and provide a more refined sound; or non-resonated, which removes the original silencer for a louder, more aggressive tone.
Does our system retain or remove valve functionality? If optioned as valved, drivers will retain control of the car's soundtrack via the mode select button, allowing the ECU to modulate the sound levels from the Scorpion exhaust. Alternatively, with a non-valved system, this functionality is removed, providing a continuous exhaust tone without interruptions from the OEM valve operations.
Once installed, the acoustically tuned silencers — featuring specialised, unique internals (on systems equipped with mid-silencers or backboxes) — and precision CNC mandrel-bent pipework enable the exhaust system to expel engine gases more efficiently. This results in enhanced power delivery, sharper throttle response, and reduced curb weight, thanks to the full stainless-steel construction. Designed for durability, our system offers exceptional longevity, even in the harshest conditions.
Tailpipe Styles:
Ascari: Our premium sport option, available exclusively in a matte carbon finish, highlights the distinctive sporty carbon weave. Its two-piece floating construction, with an inner brushed stainless-steel insert, allows hot gases to pass through without discolouring or weakening the outer carbon fibre shell.
Daytona: This design needs no introduction, the classic Scorpion Daytona slash-cut style with a modern twist on a timeless look. The Daytona is a great-looking option for everything from hot hatchbacks to flagship autobahn saloons.
Tailpipe Finishes:
Polished: Premium T304 stainless steel polished trims undergo a meticulous multi-step buffing process, resulting in a long-lasting, mirror-like finish that stays shining. (Available for Daytona trim only.)
Black Ceramic: The matte black finish provides a stealthy, modern look. The tailpipes undergo a specialised coating process, ensuring a durable and flawless finish. (Available for Daytona trim only.)
OEM Resonator Delete:
What are the benefits of a resonator delete? A resonator delete lets you keep your standard back box for a stealthy look while enhancing your exhaust sound. While it doesn’t provide the full benefits of a complete performance exhaust system, it removes the factory-fitted resonator designed to mute the exhaust tone. The result is a more aggressive sound, slight weight reduction, and potential performance gains. (Fits the OEM pipework only.)
Turbo Downpipes:
Ready to push the limits — what are the benefits? We offer high-flow turbo downpipes for drivers and enthusiasts seeking maximum tuning potential — whether fine-tuning on the dyno or pushing every horsepower at the track. Scorpion’s advanced downpipe technology is engineered for uncompromising performance and built to endure.
Our downpipes increase horsepower, dramatically improve gas flow for better turbo spool and reduced back pressure, and amplify the exhaust note for a more aggressive, race-inspired sound. (For motorsport use only.)
Sports Cat: Equipped with high-performance sports catalysts featuring a 200-cell honeycomb design. This precision lattice structure offers significantly improved exhaust gas flow compared to the dense, high cell-count OEM catalysts. Emissions-conscious drivers can tune their vehicles while maintaining some level of control. Keep in mind that catalysts are most effective at their optimal operating temperature — not when cold.
De-Cat: Removes the catalyst entirely, allowing for maximum exhaust flow with no backpressure concerns — ideal for extreme high-horsepower builds. The purpose-built, smooth-bore design ensures optimal gas flow without the restrictions of a catalytic converter.
Exhaust Tunnel Brace:
Want to tighten your grip on the road? Scorpion’s lightweight aluminium chassis braces tick all the boxes. Manufactured as a single piece, they provide a high-strength connection under load. Each brace is powder-coated black and etched with the Scorpion mark for a premium finish.
Our underbody bracing reduces performance loss caused by chassis flex during hard braking or cornering. The result? Enhanced rigidity and a more connected, responsive feel on the road. (Compatible with both Scorpion and OEM pipework.)
Valve Delete Module:
Ensure no CEL (check engine light), no fault codes, and full functionality of all drive modes when fitting a non-valved exhaust system with our valve delete modules. They work with any non-valved exhaust, not just Scorpion systems!
Easy to Install: Simply plug into the OEM connector under the car and secure the OE valve harness away from the exhaust using the included cable tie. The fully waterproof design makes for a true fit-and-forget solution, with no mapping required.
Please Note: If you already have fault codes from disconnected valve motors, clear them with an OBDII reader before installation.
Interchangeability:
Scorpion’s interchangeable program offers flexible upgrades, allowing your exhaust to evolve with your tuning stages. Whether you’re looking to change the exhaust trim for aesthetics or require increased tuning capability with high-flow pipework, our system adapts to your needs.
Always check each product's technical data for fitment details before purchasing, as compatibility may vary, and interchangeability is not always guaranteed.
