Slide behind the wheel, tap the start button, and feel the rumble — this isn't your stock SQ5 anymore. With our Stage 1 tune, every green light becomes an excuse to grin. Power delivery is instant, torque hits like a sledgehammer, and that V6 comes alive in a way Audi should've built it from day one.
You roll onto the throttle and the car pulls — effortlessly, aggressively, addictively. It's smooth when you want it, savage when you don't — the perfect balance of class and chaos.

Crackle Pops — Because Quiet Cars Don't Get Noticed
You lift off the gas and BOOM — your exhaust starts talkin'. That glorious crack-pop-pop-pop isn't just noise — it's overrun magic, dialed in with precision to give your ride the drama it deserves.
Three crackle levels to match your vibe:
- Low — Subtle, refined, perfect for daily drives and sneaky pulls
- Medium — Noticeable and fun, turns heads without waking the whole neighborhood
- High/Intense — Loud, aggressive, and borderline ridiculous (in the best way possible)
Even on a stock exhaust, you'll hear the difference. But with an aftermarket setup? It's absolute madness. Get ready to light up the night with every lift — because the streets weren't made for silence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What's the difference between Stage 1 and Stage 2?
A: Stage 1 requires no hardware modifications. Stage 2 requires a high-flow exhaust and delivers significantly more power.
Q: Do I need the TCU tune?
A: Highly recommended. The TCU tune raises torque limits, improves shift logic, and enables the raised neutral/park rev limiter.
Q: What fuel does it support?
A: 91/93 octane pump gas.
Q: Can I flash at home?
A: Yes. 100% remote with live support from the actual calibrator. A Windows laptop is required.
Q: What are crackle pops?
A: Also known as overrun. When decelerating from higher RPMs or free-revving, you'll hear crackle pops from your exhaust. Choose from Low, Medium, or High/Intense levels.
Q: Can I upgrade from Stage 1 to Stage 2 later?
A: Absolutely. Pay the difference and schedule a reflash once your high-flow exhaust is installed.

Stage2 Remote Tune
This product was absolutely amazing! I got my 2019 SQ5 Stage2 tuned the other day and it performs even better than expected! I added the extra Intense/Flames Crackle Pop Tune, and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! The amount of pops and crackles it spits out is insane. If you keep it around 3,000rpm while cruising with your foot off the pedal it’ll just keep going. This Tune Went Above and Beyond My Expectations, 10/10 Definitely Recommended!!!
