AWE part 3020-32018 is a non-resonated downpipe-back exhaust for the 2009–2012 Audi 8R Q5 3.2L. Includes two 4-inch Chrome Silver tips. Connects to the factory downpipes; replacement downpipes are sold separately. This configuration retains AWE 180 Technology despite its non-resonated designation. Not for 2.0T, 3.0T, diesel, SQ5, or later-platform Q5 models.
For our Q5 3.2L Exhaust, we 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 our Fabrication and Engineering Departments have yielded the finest Q5 exhausts on the market. Featuring an x-pipe for enhanced exhaust tone and AWE's 180 Technology™ to eliminate drone, our Q5 3.2L Exhaust family is the perfect performance compliment for the daily driven vehicle.A downpipe-back system that mates up with the factory downpipes, the AWE non-resonated exhaust system is for those looking for a more aggressive head-turning sound. Hand-crafted, every detail of these exhausts was labored over to ensure maximum performance and longevity. Topped off with 4", double walled slash-cut tips, in Chrome Silver.
