Touring Edition Cat-back:

A straight-through design, the AWE Touring Edition Exhaust is a full 3” T304L stainless steel configuration featuring a precision-engineered X-pipe that brings out a smooth, yet ultra-aggressive muscle tone with no drone throughout the entire range thanks to AWE’s 180 Technology®. The AWE Touring Edition Exhaust is available with resonated or non-resonated mid-pipes.

Sound Perfection: 180 Technology® by AWE

As exhaust gases exit the Camaro SS’ 6.2L engine and flow into an AWE 180 Technology® equipped resonator, they pass through strategically located ports, and into reflection chambers. Sound waves, carried by these exhaust gasses, bounce off the walls of the reflection chambers. By controlling the size and location of the ports and the chambers, we also control when the sound waves exit the chambers. The specific timing of when the reflected sound waves rejoin the main exhaust flow creates a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree out-of-phase sound wave that cancels out problematic frequencies. Call it science, call it magic, or call it 180 Technology® by AWE. More in the tab above.

AFM Valve Simulators (for vehicles with automatic transmissions and AFM valves):

• Provides a worry-free solution for removing AFM valves from the exhaust route without causing a CEL
• CNC laser-cut T304 stainless steel construction
• Direct bolt-on to factory AFM valve motors
• Comes as a set of two
• AWE Perfect Fitment Guarantee
• AWE No CEL Guarantee
• AWE Lifetime Warranty

The AWE AFM Valve Simulators allow drivers to equip full AWE Cat-back Exhausts without the worry of throwing a CEL. Simply remove the AFM valve motors from the factory exhaust, bolt them onto the AWE AFM Valve Simulator, and secure them safely to the vehicle. 

Once installed, the AFM valve motors will retain their factory operation, and keep your car’s ECU happy.

AWE AFM Valve Simulators come as a set of two, and require the use of the factory valve motor hardware to secure the AFM motor to the AWE Valve Simulator plate.

Tip Options:

All tip options include the AWE logo and double-walling to ensure a mirror finish even under hard usage. All tips are individually adjustable, allowing depth into the bumper to be set according to personal taste.

• 4.5” slash-cut diamond black tips
• 4.5” slash-cut chrome silver tips

Dual to quad-tip versions (or vice versa) will require a new valance. But you knew that. 

Conversion Kits:

We made it easy to convert from a Track Edition to a Touring Edition, non-resonated to resonated, or vice visa if you decide at a later date to turn it up or turn it down. We also offer cat-back conversions for customers who go with an axle-back first.

Volume Guide:

What’s in the box?

Complete Touring or Track Edition Cat-back/Axle-back, two or four 4.5” tips in desired finish, and all required installation hardware.

The AWE No CEL (Check Engine Light) Guarantee is noted on certain AWE products, and offers peace of mind against the appearance of Check Engine Lights when products are installed properly and used as intended, on vehicles with no additional modifications, with the exception of other AWE products intended to work with the product in question.

What is 180 Technology®?

AWE's patented 180 Technology® works a little something like this: As exhaust gases exit the engine and flow into an AWE 180 Technology®-equipped resonator, they pass through strategically located ports, and into reflection chambers.

Sound waves, carried by these exhaust gasses, bounce off the walls of the reflection chambers.  Depending on the sound requirements of each vehicle, AWE acoustic engineers adjust the size and location of the ports and the chambers.  By controlling the size and location of these key elements, we also control when the sound waves exit the chambers.  The specific timing of when the reflected sound waves re-join the main exhaust flow creates a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree out-of-phase sound wave that cancels out problematic frequencies.

Consistency through change.

AWE 180 Technology® is not on a “one size fits all” concept. Rather, AWE engineers design sound cancelation resonators based upon the specific acoustics generated by vehicle types, thereby ensuring perfect sound, every time. It’s one of the reasons AWE exhausts have earned a reputation for the perfect tone, regardless of application.

What it means to you.

The result? The removal of unwanted tones in all AWE 180 Technology®-equipped exhaust systems. The sound produced by this formula is the perfect, signature note. Unlocked performance and spot-on tone, every time.
