AWE Tuningr Exhausts have earned praise from owners and the press alike, due to their unique "Jekyll and Hyde" personality. AWE Tuning spent considerable time and effort during development to achieve remarkable civility when idling and cruising at part throttle, while also producing a war-cry wail when full throttle is applied. Sophisticated, refined, and powerful, all at once.
Here are some features of the AWE Tuning system. Each feature was chosen for performance and longevity reasons, and when making your Exhaust decisions you should settle for nothing less:
The Mk6 Jetta GLI Track Edition Exhaust replaces the factory exhaust and includes a straight through resonator, but to allow a more aggressive exhaust tone, the Track Edition does not include the Helmholtz resonator.
Why did we choose 2.5 inch and not 3.0 inch diameter for our MK6 exhaust? Our first 2.0T exhaust prototypes were indeed 3.0 inch, but we found that the effort it took to move the large mass of air in the 3.0 inch system at lower rpms resulted in a loss of torque with very little offsetting gain up top.
