I was considering getting the AWE touring exhaust for my S5, and possibly the new intake they are working on when it's available.

Few questions:

- anyone here have the touring exhaust? impressions?
- are these mods lease friendly?
- will I feel the performance gains?
- any downsides to getting an intake I should be aware of?

-the exhaust is awesome
-your dealer shouldnt care about the exhaust/intake
-it will be louder so it will feel faster
-no downside to the intake, but ther isnt much upside since it wont help out to much.

I think it depends on the dealership. Some are more mod friendly and some are very quick to point out aftermarket add-ons if you are in for warranty services. IMO, I think there is less they can pick on with the exhaust than the intake. In addition, if your dealership happens to be associate with Stasis, they will want to promote the Stasis system which may or may not lead them to being more "sensitive" to systems from other tuners, regardless of AWE's history with Audi.
