AWE Tuning Touring Edition Axleback Exhaust for C7 Corvette Stingray / Z51 / Grand Sport / Z06 / ZR1 - Chrome Silver Tips (includes AWE Tuning AFM valve simulators) (3015-42133)

Thanks to AWE's drone-canceling 180 Technology and countless hours of R&D, we were able to craft a system for the SQ5 that enables perfect part throttle cruising when you want it, and a disobedient soundtrack when you're feeling a bit more? aggressive. In other words, the AWE SQ5 Touring Edition Exhaust is the best of both worlds: SQ5. Unlocked: Featuring AWE's drone-canceling solution: 180 Technology Engineered around the SQ5's specific Tiptronic tuning Direct bolt-on Gains of 8 hp and 9 lb-ft of torque to the crank X-Pipe for enhanced exhaust scavenging and improved tone Available with chrome silver or diamond black adjustable quad outlet 102mm tips Crafted from 2.5" T304L stainless steel No CEL Guarantee Fitment Guarantee Lifetime Exhaust Warranty Since there is no independent control of the valves (except Sport" mode which changes a number of other things), the AWE 180 Technology equipped exhaust responds to driver inputs seamlessly, removing the need for valving. 180 Technology is not the standard, typical approach to performance exhaust design.

Through proprietary mathematical calculations, AWE engineers were able to create a sound cancellation resonator that definitively turns off" the frequency where drone occurs. At the same time, while being able to squelch drone 100%, the resonator design is also providing a 100% straight through, full diameter flow for maximum performance. So, at part throttle, relaxed driving: zero drone. At full throttle, attack mode: straight up aggression (all with no power compromises). Just like a valved system. The Downpipes: When volume is your speed. Turn your SQ5 up to 11 with the AWE SQ5 Non-Resonated Downpipes. These handcrafted T304L stainless steel Non-Resonated Downpipes produce a distinctive, more aggressive sound when coupled with the AWE Touring Edition Exhaust (available separately).

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. 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. 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.

The AWE No Check Engine Light Guarantee 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). No problems, no lights. Easy.
