AWE Tuning Touring Edition Exhaust for 8R Q5 2.0T - Chrome Silver Tips (3015-32026)

Perfect tone, unlocked power and uncompromised daily driving manners. For the Q5 2.0T, AWE knew the tone and volume had to be spot on, given the varied environments this do-it-all vehicle finds itself in. It needed to deliver an eye-opening wail at full throttle yet be quiet and civil during part throttle, around town driving. Countless research and development efforts by AWE's Fabrication and Engineering Departments have yielded the finest Q5 2.0T exhaust on the market.The stock exhaust system is full of crimped tubing that hurts exhaust flow and robs horsepower. Our Q5 2.0T Exhaust was designed with smooth gradual bends and to eliminate any interruption to the flow of exhaust gasses. Our improvements to the exhaust path result in gains of +13 horsepower and +13 lb ft of torque at the crank. Replacing the large, restrictive factory mufflers also has a pleasing effect on the engine note. Our exhaust systems give the 2.0T a civilized, more melodious voice, with specific attention paid to low rpm situations at part throttle. Finishing it off This system is topped off with notable 3.5 inch slash-cut tips. The tips sport engraved AWE logos and are double walled to ensure a mirror polish, even under hard usage. Each tip is individually adjustable, so stagger and depth into bumper can be set according to personal taste.

AWE's patented 180 Technology works a little something like this: As exhaust gases exit the engine and flow into an AWE 180 Technology-equipped resonator, they pass through strategically located ports, and into reflection chambers. Sound waves, carried by these exhaust gasses, bounce off the walls of the reflection chambers. Depending on the sound requirements of each vehicle, AWE acoustic engineers adjust the size and location of the ports and the chambers. By controlling the size and location of these key elements, we also control when the sound waves exit the chambers. The specific timing of when the reflected sound waves re-join the main exhaust flow creates a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree out-of-phase sound wave that cancels out problematic frequencies. AWE 180 Technology is not on a one size fits all" concept. Rather, AWE engineers design sound cancelation resonators based upon the specific acoustics generated by vehicle types, thereby ensuring perfect sound, every time. It's one of the reasons AWE exhausts have earned a reputation for the perfect tone, regardless of application. The result? The removal of unwanted tones in all AWE 180 Technology-equipped exhaust systems. The sound produced by this formula is the perfect, signature note. Unlocked performance and spot-on tone, every time.
