AWE Tuning
AWE Tuning Exhausts Australia
We fit and sell AWE Tuning systems across the range, from Touring Edition daily drivers doing the Sydney commute to Track Edition and SwitchPath setups running track days at The Bend and Wakefield Park. AWE's 180 Technology midpipe is the reason we recommend it to customers who want real exhaust note without highway drone. Every system here is genuine AWE, sourced through authorised channels.

Why AWE
AWE's 180 Technology midpipe cancels drone through a phase-shifted reflection chamber rather than packing material, so a Touring Edition system holds sound character without the 1,800 to 2,500 RPM highway drone that plagues a lot of aftermarket setups. We've had customers cross-shop Touring against Track and come back for a Conversion Kit six months later once their driving changed, that flexibility is a genuine point of difference. Systems are built from T304L stainless steel with TIG-welded joints. AWE backs its exhaust systems with a manufacturer's warranty against defects, check the specific terms listed on your product page or ask us before you buy, warranty periods can vary by system and market.
Fitment & Installation
Confirm your exact chassis code before ordering, AWE fitments are chassis-specific and an 8V S3 system won't bolt to an 8Y, and an FK8 Civic Type R system won't fit an FL5. Catback systems bolt on with hand tools in most home garages, though some Audi and VW fitments benefit from a hoist due to rear diffuser and bumper clearance. Downpipes and turbo-back systems are for race and motorsport use only and typically need a supporting tune, they're not designed for road registration. Conversion Kits bolt to your existing midpipe, no need to remove the whole system.

FAQ
Will an AWE exhaust fit my exact model? AWE fitments are chassis and year specific. Check the chassis code (like 8Y vs 8V, FL5 vs FK8, MK7 vs MK7.5) against the product listing before ordering.
Do you ship AWE exhausts Australia-wide? Yes, we ship these systems across Australia.
Is an AWE catback street legal in Australia? Catback systems that retain the standard catalytic converter are generally street legal. AWE downpipes and turbo-back systems are for race and motorsport use only, check your state's noise and emissions rules before fitting one to a road car.
What's the difference between Touring and Track Edition for daily driving? Touring keeps the rear mufflers and is tuned for a quieter, drone-free highway cruise. Track deletes the rear mufflers for a louder, more aggressive note, better suited to a weekend or track car.
Can I convert a Track Edition to Touring later? Yes, on supported platforms like Golf R, S3 8Y and WRX/STI VA/GV, AWE sells a Conversion Kit that bolts to your existing midpipe.
