So we thought, hey, let’s see what our daily driver Q5 R&D mobile can do. Admittedly, when this car isn’t in the lab, it’s a commuter and school bus, replete with school stickers, baby seat, even an occasional cheerio in between the cushions.

But the onramps told a different story, so off we went to the strip. Here’s what happened with full car weight, spare tire in, 185lb driver, D/A of 74.

Results: 12.502 quarter mile at 109.52 MPH, on 93 octane fuel.




The build on the AWE Tuning Audi Q5 3.0T is as follows:

• AWE Tuning Audi Q5 3.0T S-FLO Filter
• AWE Tuning Audi Q5 3.0T S-FLO Carbon Cover
• AWE Tuning 3.0T Stage 2 Performance Pulley Kit
• AWE Tuning Q5 3.0T Touring Edition Exhaust (pre-release version)
• Britax Frontier 85 Combination Harness-2-Booster Seat
• G.I.A.C. Stage 2 Performance Software

So. That happened. Fastest quarter mile time for the Q5 we can find.

Off to soccer practice.

Exhaust is currently still in the development stage, but we're getting close. Keep an eye on our social media and website in the meantime.

Very nice. The only other one I've known to go down the strip is Scott who did 12.7@107 according to the following. Unfortunately the video is no longer up.

don't sell scott short, he ran a 12.6, along side a pretty nasty GIAC MK6! =)

Hey, I wasn't! In that thread his best was a 12.761! I didn't know he had gone quicker :P

joey jojo

haha, yeah, it took me a while to find this video last time. it's buried in some random thread. either way, both apr and giac/awe tunes are incredible at moving the Q5 along.

Is this kit compatible with a 3.0T Q7?
