For the Q5 3.2L Exhaust, AWE knew the tone and volume had to be spot on. It needed to deliver an exhilarating wail at full throttle yet be quiet and civil during part throttle, around town driving. Countless research and development efforts by their Fabrication and Engineering Departments have yielded the finest Q5 exhausts on the market.

Featuring an x-pipe for enhanced exhaust tone and featuring AWE Tuning 180 Technology™ to eliminate drone, AWE's Q5 3.2L Exhaust family is the perfect performance compliment for the daily driven vehicle.

AWE Tuning Q5 3.2L Non-Resonated Exhaust System:
A Downpipe-Back system that mates up with the factory downpipes, the Non-Resonated system is for those looking for a more aggressive head-turning sound.

AWE Tuning Q5 3.2L Resonated Downpipes:
The AWE Tuning Q5 3.2L Resonated Downpipes,in conjunction with the Downpipe-Back exhaust, offer one of the most sophisticated pitches on the road. AWE's acclaimed Resonated Downpipes feature larger than stock resonators in order to produce a more subtle sound volume.

Highlights of both systems:

Sound Perfection: AWE Tuning 180 Technology™:
As exhaust gases exit the 3.2L engine and flow into an AWE Tuning 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. By controlling the size and location of the ports and the chambers, the timing of when the sound waves exit the chambers is also controlled. 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.
