Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning SwitchPath™ Exhaust System Kit for the 2012–2016 Porsche 911 (991 Carrera and Carrera 4, 3.4L and 3.8L) is engineered for enthusiasts who refuse to compromise. Purpose-built for PSE-equipped cars, this cat-back exhaust system pairs genuine performance gains with the everyday refinement Porsche owners expect. It is, quite simply, the finest performance exhaust available for the PSE-equipped 991 — a car exhaust that delivers a track-ready roar and a touring-grade hush in one integrated package.
What sets this AWE exhaust system apart are its integrated valves. The SwitchPath™ valve responds to exhaust valve position commands sent by your Porsche’s ECU based on throttle input, seamlessly transforming the character of the car. Under aggressive throttle, exhaust gasses are directed away from the side mufflers for Cup Car levels of announcement — the Track Edition experience. Ease off, and the valve closes, routing gasses back through the stock side mufflers for a sophisticated, signature AWE tone just slightly above stock — the Touring Edition experience. The exhaust volume always matches your driving style.
