Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning Touring Edition Exhaust System Kit is engineered to transform the way your 2015-2017 Volkswagen Golf (Hatchback, 1.8T, FWD) sounds and drives. Designed specifically for the Golf 1.8T, this cat-back exhaust system delivers a more aggressive yet comfortable tone that builds naturally upon the Golf’s refined demeanor. Whether you’re cruising the highway or carving your favorite backroad, this performance exhaust brings personality to your daily driver without droning intrusion.
At the heart of the Touring Edition is a resonated front section paired with a centrally-located, straight-through muffler that replaces the bulky, restrictive stock rear muffler. AWE Tuning’s proprietary 180 Technology is baked into the design, targeting and canceling unwanted resonance so you get a clean, refined note at cruise and a satisfying growl when you get on it. It’s the kind of car exhaust upgrade that sounds fantastic when you want it to and stays livable when you don’t.
Materials & Construction
Every exhaust pipe and component in this cat-back exhaust system is crafted from premium T304L Stainless Steel for lasting corrosion resistance and durability, with 2.5-inch tubing sized to complement the 1.8T powerplant. The system finishes with two 90mm (3.5-inch) slash cut tips in a Chrome Silver finish, each proudly stamped with the AWE logo so everyone knows what team you’re on. The tips are double-walled to preserve a flawless mirror finish even under hard usage, and each tip is individually adjustable, letting you dial in exactly how far they sit into the bumper to match your personal taste.
