Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning BMW (3.0) Exhaust System Kit is the first AWE SwitchPath™ configuration for BMW to incorporate patented drone-canceling 180 Technology®, delivering no drone, minimal bends, maximum flow, and push-button attitude. Engineered as a cat-back exhaust system for the S58 engine, it transforms the character of your car exhaust without demanding a tune — this is a genuine bolt-on performance exhaust built for enthusiasts who want a refined daily driver and a proper M anthem on command.
Constructed from 3-inch U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel, the system pairs a precision X-pipe with a valved SwitchPath™ muffler tuned specifically for the S58. Beginning after the factory mid pipe, the precision X-pipe immediately helps smooth the S58 of its rasp, deepening the tone before it is refined further by the bespoke SwitchPath™ muffler in the rear. The result is a clean, full-bodied sound with no congested, metallic notes when on the throttle.
Push-Button Sound Control
With the valves closed, the SwitchPath™ exhaust produces a refined, aggressive howl while remaining full-bodied and powerful. At cruising speeds, interior acoustics stay close to stock with no drone thanks to 180 Technology®. Open the valves and the S58’s roar is uncorked. AWE SwitchPath™ tech also responds perfectly to the many transmission settings and shift points in automatic vehicles, so drop the hammer with the valves closed and it sings a proper M anthem — it’s that good, all of the time.
