where did you get those center caps from JOS4AUDI? I'm partial to your gunmetal VMRs but your Q5 is still my favorite Q! Looks great.

[subsonique]

Went back to my matte black 708's i love these wheels i feel like they fit my theme better. I had the wheel my wife curbed redone, and all the center caps wrapped in the dinoc CF. Afew shots next up are brakes and im thinking about the AWE exhaust with black diamond tips.

Are you going to swap out the exhaust? Not satisfied with the Magnaflows? You can always run with Remus ;)

Hey D frost good to hear from you. I think I'm sticking with the magnaflow. I got another compliment today.I just thought it may be too loud ,but I'm over critical. I really do like it. The Remus is very nice ,and good sound but like I said staying put for now. Really focused on brakes now so we will see.

Also got the paddles Vag'd today finally WOW!!! It's so much fun to drive the Q with paddles. Lovin her more and more.

Been offline for a while due to traveling... it's good to be back :)

Now you really got me tempted to go for the steering wheel swap ;) But I'm still waiting to get my wheels installed... gotta pace myself haha :)

Are you going for a BBK?

Nice good to have you back!!!
Ya I totally recommend the wheel swap you will love it I drove around for like an hour just because. Lol I do agree do your wheels first im looking forward to that.
I'm thinking a BBK ,but brembo is all I can find not bad but pricey. I've been emailing a few people I'm going to see what comes of it. I also like those Adam's rotors.

you upgraded the paddle shifters? any pictures? i got Maniacs paddle extension installed on my VW Golf GTI MK6 and i love it, but they don't have it for Q5 yet...

Hey, no I haven't upgraded the paddles yet, but I am thinking about it. I just had the steering wheel Vag'd so the paddles now work. I like your paddles im thinking of ordering the same stainless ones? I like the bigger ones but I don't know where to get them.
I'm really loving your Q glad to have another Q on board. Very tasteful mods u have. Those brakes are killing me I love them sooooo much!!!!

glad your paddles are in working order. i also like the bigger one, but waiting for the right brand to come along. if i am not mistaken, there is one brand with aluminum paddle extension but it's really ugly. i just love molesting my cars haha. and the brakes, you just got to have them, they perform way better than the stock ones. stops faster, no nose dive plus it just looks super on our Q5.

I'm really interested in these brakes if you don't mind can you tell me or PM some more info? Where you purchased?

ok the RS5 8 potter i got it locally from one of the workshops here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. it's only USD3.5k. i reckon you have a wider choice there in the States?

[Mops]

I prefer the matte 708's as well Jeremy...looks mo "badass". Where are those rotors bud? lol. Saw some chatter about exhaust above. I have a 3.2 AWE track mid for sale. A piece of the SS packing came loose and needs to be removed but the the AWE mids are not easy to come by and sound amazing. Just add some pipe and tips and you have that $1,400 system:)

hey bro, this is one of my favorite mods too haha. i got this last year and i am so happy! i got the front black/red Quattro emblem too, but it seems to be concaving i don't know why. maybe the heat from the engine perhaps?

[techm8n]

Looks awesome.

VMR wheels has pics of your Q5 on their website. I was going to buy these same wheels VMR V708 in Hyper Silver, but they're out of stock on the 20s. My first choice was the V701, but they're also out of stock and don't know when they'll get there next shipment.

[techm8n]

Hey JOS4AUDI,

Did you remove the two resonators from your exhaust? Or did you only replace the mufflers with Magnaflow?

Awesome I didn't even know VMR had my pics up. Thanks for the info!!! Honestly I love the VMR wheels I've had 3 sets all great all very durable I will purchase more. I'd go with the 708's I think they fit the Q perfect!!!!

As far as the exhaust I had 2 small resonators and 3 mufflers a mid and 2 rear. I removed everything left the 2 resonators and added the magnaflow as a mid muffler then straight pipes to the rear. Also 4 inch tips. I love the sound.

Based on this diagram, you removed both Secondary silencer and replaced the Center silencer with a Magnaflow muffler. Left the Primary silencer alone. Is this correct?

[JOS4AUDI]

I removed everything after the 2 primary silencers. And added a magnaflow in middle section then piping. That's actually a great diagram thanks. I just finished my A4 which is a 2.0 T I'll post a video tonight so you can get an idea of sound for your Q5. On that one I replaced only the rear muffler with 2.5 in piping and tips.

I honestly love it!!!! It's not loud in cabin and no drone whatsoever and any speed. When you get on the car it sounds great!!! My wife who I trust ( and knows more than half the guys on this forum about Audi's) approves and Says it's better than the Q5.

I may actually quiet down the Q5 not by choice, but I just found out we have out first baby on the way. Since the wife drives it it's her choice.

[JOS4AUDI]

Oh also I just installed the K&N typhoon intake on my car. I love it!!!! I'll get a video maybe it will fit the 2.0 Q5

Et 35 all around, but the rears have 17mm spacers.

Did you have to change to longer lugs?

[JOS4AUDI]

Did you have to change to longer lugs?

Yes both front and rear spacers were ordered with longer bolts.

[JOS4AUDI]

Heres those videos of my A4 with the custom magnaflow on the 2.0T. Hope they work and you can hear the exhaust and intake.http://<iframe width="420" height="3...reen></iframe>

[techm8n]

Nice, sounds good. I like the way the turbo whines. What kind of intake?
