Default Magnaflow axle back installed


Just installed the magnaflow 19238 SQ5 axle back. Obviously no real performance gains but it changes he sound just enough. Not as loud as the AWE but more like a sport exhaust option. Retains the valve motors and sound just right with no drone. Installed in about and hour. Just cut off the old mufflers at ten inches from the resonator and you are good to go. Fit is spot on for once.

I have to lose that last badge. It looks dumb.

For the price, yes. The build quality and fitment is extremely good.

Yes, please throw sound clip up if you can. Its a good option for someone who doesn't want to spend on AWE. Where did you order it from?

Going to assume that's on a petrol.

I'm still debating about doing a muffler delete on my SQ5+ tdi. Currently got the standard actuators (speakers) in mine with the milltek active sound control.

But yes sound clip would be awesome 👍🏻

Looks good, wish they made a similar version for the Q5 3.0T. They do make a downpipe back version but it doesn't have any resonators in the rear section and I am not about "loud" for this vehicle.I would assume I could fit this onto my Q5 w/a new rear diffuser from the SQ5 tho.
