The Options:

Racing-use only Performance X-pipes, axlebacks, and valvebacks. Options for all tastes, sound preferences, and performance goals.

Touring Edition Valveback Exhaust:

In valveback form, the Touring Edition Valveback Exhaust mates to the factory AFM valves on applicable models, beginning right above the rear axle. The Touring Edition Valveback jumps up from the factory diameter to full 3”, shaves ten pounds from the rear, and features AWE’s drone-canceling 180 Technology®.

With aggression on-tap, the Touring Edition provides the ultimate experience for drivers wanting the ability to unleash the fury of the 6.2L while providing drone-free in-cabin acoustics at cruising speeds. Responsive to throttle input, the 180 Technology®-equipped Touring Edition is capable of remaining tame until provoked by the driver.

Sound Perfection: 180 Technology® by AWE

As exhaust gases exit the Corvette’s 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.

Track Edition Valveback Exhaust:

The AWE Track Edition in valveback form provides a cost effective, aggressive configurations for AFM-equipped models looking to drop weight from the rear while uncorking the 6.2L. From factory diameter to 3”, the Track Edition replaces the factory rear muffler with straight pipe sections.

Raw, rowdy, and lightweight. The AWE Track Edition Valveback is the perfect dose of steel for drivers looking for the loudest of the lot.

Retaining the 3” diameter T304L stainless steel construction, the Track Edition Valveback mirrors all of the precision engineering and perfect fitment found in its Touring Edition counterpart, minus the 180 Technology®. Instead, the Track Edition features straight pipe sections to deliver the thunder.

Performance X-Pipe

The AWE Performance X-Pipe is a full 3” T304L stainless steel, bolt-on mid section that omits the secondary catalysts. In place lies a precision-engineered X section that grants the 6.2L a refined muscle tone with a touch of exotic character.

The AWE Performance X-Pipe will fit with all AWE Exhaust configurations as well as the factory exhaust.

Please note: the Performance X-Pipe is for racing use only.

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

Conversion Kits:

We made it easy to convert catbacks from a Track Edition to a Touring Edition, non-resonated to resonated, or vice versa if you decide at a later date to turn it up or turn it down.

Important notes:

In the case of the Track Edition Exhausts: They’re not for the faint of heart, and for this reason, Track Edition Exhausts cannot be returned based on sound preference. Choose your weapon wisely.

What’s in the box?

Complete AWE Touring or Track Edition Valveback Exhaust, quad 4.5” tips in desired finish (unless its a Performance X-pipe only), and all required installation hardware.
