Default New Q5 3.0 Owner- Already Stage 1

Hey everyone,
I am excited to be a new 2016 Q5 3.0T Premium Plus S-Line in Lava Grey Metallic owner. I have been a long time Audi fan and am excited to learn a few things from this forum.

I was originally going to purchase an SQ5, but I was researching the APR products and knew what the 3.0TSFI offered. After getting the Q5 a couple weeks ago, I recently installed the APR Stage 2 Cold Air Intake with Back Pipea and also did the APR Stage 1 Tune, with 93 Octane for the map. Needless to say I am overly impressed as this is now pushing 445hp according to APR!

How much did the tune run you? I'm thinking about doing a tune on our 16 SQ5.

The Stage 1 APR Tune on the 93 Octane map ran me just over $1,000. I highly recommend it, as I saw a massive difference.

Welcome to Audi!
Besides HP increase, what other improvements or differences do you see about the car and it’s performance after Stage 1.
thank You
