If you drive with the roof down, you want to experience the engine; that is the whole point. Yet Audi keeps the TTS noticeably quiet from the factory. With the GRAIL valved exhaust system you get back the sound that suits open-top driving. With the roof down the system becomes the real reason you bought it - a sporty TFSI sound straight from the rear, unfiltered by a solid roof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-made in Germany from L304 stainless steel, with ECE type approval. So no registration is required on any EU vehicle with standard type approval.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOpen-air sound with the roof down\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the roof down, the effect of the GRAIL system is noticeably more intense than in a closed coupé. The sound waves reach the driver's ears straight from the rear, without being filtered by a roof. In Dynamic mode with the roof down you get the unfiltered 2.0 TFSI character with pops on the overrun - exactly what a roadster should sound like. With the roof up the noise level inside stays comfortable, because the valves follow the driving modes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWith or without a particulate filter - both versions available\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system is available for Roadster models with a petrol particulate filter and for models without one. In the configurator you choose the version that matches your car:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWith particulate filter:\u003c\/strong\u003eFor TTS Roadster models with a factory petrol particulate filter (introduced gradually from around 2018). The filter stays integrated in the system - full ECE compliance, no registration required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWithout particulate filter:\u003c\/strong\u003eFor older TTS Roadster models without a petrol particulate filter. Even clearer and stronger in sound, because nothing mutes the exhaust flow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo valves in series - why that makes sense on the roadster\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the TTS system GRAIL fits\u003cstrong\u003etwo valves one behind the other, in series\u003c\/strong\u003e. That matters particularly on the roadster, because open bodies react more sensitively in acoustic terms:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValves closed:\u003c\/strong\u003eBoth valves block the flow completely. You can drive through residential areas with the roof down without the neighbourhood noticing what you drive. Fully ECE-compliant and suited to everyday use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValves open:\u003c\/strong\u003eBoth valves open the exhaust flow. With the roof down the effect is a level more intense than in a closed coupé - pure TFSI character straight from the rear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eValve control via the Audi driving modes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth valves are controlled by the factory Audi valve control of your TTS Roadster. You operate them as usual via the MMI:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDynamic mode: both valves open - the full GRAIL sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eComfort or Efficiency: both valves closed - restrained and ECE-compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRoadster or Cabrio - both mean the same thing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAudi officially calls the open version of the TTS the \"Roadster\". In everyday use people often say \"Cabrio\" as well. Both terms mean the same car. This GRAIL system fits the open body only - you will find the version for the closed coupé as a separate product in the shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSelection in the configurator\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering you choose the following options:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eParticulate filter status:\u003c\/strong\u003eWith or without a petrol particulate filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDownpipe connection:\u003c\/strong\u003eTo the standard downpipe or an HJS downpipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExhaust tip colour:\u003c\/strong\u003eBrushed stainless steel or black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure about the particulate filter or the downpipe connection?

That gives the Roadster an unmistakably aftermarket appearance - fitting for an open-top car:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrushed stainless steel:\u003c\/strong\u003eSporty and elegant, with a refined look at the rear - especially good on light paint colours\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlack:\u003c\/strong\u003eA matt black quad-tip look - understated yet bold, ideal in combination with a dark roof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and workmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade entirely from L304 stainless steel, with CNC-machined components. The silencers and both valves are tuned in the GRAIL sound lab specifically for the 2.0 TFSI of the TTS - taking into account the roadster's particular sound radiation with the roof down. Flow-optimised pipe routing minimises back pressure when the valves are open. Both valves are machined from solid stainless steel, switch precisely and are designed for many years of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpecifically suitable for Audi TTS Roadster 8S \/ FV\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvailable with or without a particulate filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo valves in series - a wide acoustic range\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eECE type approval - no registration required within the EU\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuad round 100 mm in stainless steel or black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrdering with fitting at FLOW DOWN®\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFLOW DOWN® is an official GRAIL partner in the Ruhr region.
