AWE Tuning Touring Edition Exhaust for 8R Q5 3.0T Dual Outlet, Diamond Black Tips (3015-33054)

We knew the tone and volume of our Q5 3.0T Touring Edition Exhaust had to be perfect. It needed to deliver in both daily driving comfort, and full throttle exhilaration. Enter the only 3.0T Q5 exhaust worthy of the AWE name. The handcrafted AWE Q5 3.0T Touring Edition Exhaust was specially crafted for the Eight-speed Tiptronic transmission, featuring an x-pipe for enhanced exhaust tone, and AWE 180 Technology to eliminate drone. This is the perfect performance compliment for one of the finest SUVs available. Due to the weight and aerodynamics of the Q5, the 3.0T engine needs to work a bit harder to move it down the highway. The extra effort creates more exhaust sound volume, which became quite a challenge in the development of a performance exhaust. Special attention would be required - as well as the application of AWE's AWE 180 Technology. The Tips All tip options include the AWE logo, and double walling to ensure a mirror finish even under hard usage. All tips are individually adjustable, so depth into the bumper can be set according to personal taste. 102mm slash-cut diamond black tips102mm slash-cut chrome silver tips

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.
