Stop leaving power on the table. Elevate your driving experience with BDT’s Stage 2+ tune — crafted exclusively for your 2021–2025 B9.5 Audi Q5 45 TFSI.
Crackle Pops (Overrun Feature)
Bring your Audi to life with our overrun/crackle calibration — a crowd-favorite feature that adds drama and personality to every drive.
When decelerating from higher RPMs or free-revving in Neutral/Park, you’ll hear sharp, exhilarating pops and crackles from your exhaust. It’s a controlled and safe enhancement designed to deliver an aggressive sound profile — especially when paired with an aftermarket exhaust.
Note: Effect may be more subtle on stock exhaust systems. We also implemented a safety to reduce crackles if exhaust temperatures get too high.
⚡ Boost Control Optimization
From the factory, the stock ECU delivers a rough and inconsistent boost curve — often causing delayed throttle response and a lack of urgency during high-load pulls.
With BDT’s Stage 2+ ECU Calibration, we refine boost control strategy to deliver:
- Smoother, more linear boost delivery
- Sharper throttle response
- Consistent power across the entire powerband
Whether you're launching from a dig or pulling through gears, you get immediate, predictable power that keeps you planted and fully engaged.
Feel the difference: smoother transitions, no hesitation, just pure acceleration.
