This time is the fastest quarter mile time to date for a 3.0T Audi Q5 powered vehicle, outright.
Needless to say, the onlookers gawked at the record-setting SUV, which happened to still have the baby seat in the back. As daily driver as it gets.

About the Pulley
Through use of the smaller-than-stock AWE Tuning 3.0T Performance Pulley, the kit spins the 3.0Ts supercharger faster, creating more boost pressure while staying within the tested parameters of the unit. This increased boost pressure is used in conjunction with G.I.A.C. Stage 2 Performance Software to maximize the potential of the stock Eaton supercharger once coupled with the AWE Tuning 3.0T Performance Pulley.
The stock Audi ECU software directs a valve inside the supercharger to open, then waste (or “bleed off”) additional boost pressure. When the AWE Tuning 3.0T Performance Pulley is added, even more boost is created, as is the potential for even more bleed off. In steps G.I.A.C. Stage 2 Performance Software… preventing bleed off from happening by safely keeping the bypass valve closed, then optimizing ignition timing and air fuel ratios.
The outcome? The AWE Tuning 3.0T Performance Pulley and G.I.A.C. Stage 2 Performance Software work together to ensure that maximum boost is harnessed, redirected and maximized - resulting in efficient and effective use of boost pressure, and safe, reliable, dramatic power increases for your 3.0T.
