Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning Audi (3.0) Exhaust System Kit brings a new level of sophistication to the SQ5. Engineered as a true cat back exhaust system, this Touring Edition kit removes the factory valved setup and replaces it with a precision-built performance exhaust that delivers AWE’s signature sound character. It’s the refined answer for drivers who want their Audi S-Line SUV to sound as composed on the highway as it is exciting under throttle.
Built from durable T304L Stainless Steel, this exhaust system is designed to stand up to heat, corrosion and the demands of daily driving. With a 2.5-inch tubing diameter and a precision-engineered x-pipe developed specifically for the SQ5, the car exhaust adds an exotic howl under throttle that transforms how the 3.0 delivers its voice.
180 Technology Drone Cancellation
At the heart of this system are AWE’s 180 Technology drone-canceling resonators, paired with an electronic valve simulator. Because the factory valved exhaust is removed, the 180 Technology keeps the cabin civil and quiet while cruising, then lets loose all the pops and burbles during acceleration and downshifts. The result is a perfect, signature AWE experience: refined when you want it, thrilling when you don’t.
