    Anyone have the IE tune and Intake on their Q5? Been thinking about getting the duo.
    Any thoughts, good and bad?

    I actually just did these two mods for my Q5 and I love it! The tune really makes the car quick to accelerate and the intakes allow you to hear the engine and turbo noises a little better. I just wish IE made an aftermarket exhaust that gives us Q5 owners a little more exhaust noise if you know what I'm saying lol

    Thanks for the reply. Can you feel the torque a bit more?

    Yes definitely. It's not sluggish like stock.

    Thank you for the suggestion. When doing a resonator delete, do they remove the resonator on the front, back, or both? Just asking because this is my first time trying to get one done

    If the exhaust system on the Q5 2.0t is anything like the exhaust system in my 2.0t Golf R there should be one large resonator around the middle of the vehicle. That’s the one you’d cut out and replace with a res delete kit or just have a muffler shop weld a straight pipe into. That’s what I did on my wife’s Golf R, had a muffler shop weld a straight pipe in.
