Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning SwitchPath™ Exhaust System Kit transforms the 2023-2026 BMW M2 (3.0) into the vocal, expressive machine BMW’s S58 engine deserves. Built from 3-inch U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel, this cat-back exhaust system begins after the factory mid pipe and routes through a precision X-pipe into a bespoke, valved SwitchPath™ muffler tuned specifically for the S58 in the G87 platform. The result is a car exhaust that delivers two distinct personalities on demand — refined civility or full-throated fury — all at the flick of a valve.
Where many aftermarket exhaust systems introduce harshness, the precision X-pipe immediately cures the S58’s characteristic rasp, deepening the tone before the SwitchPath™ muffler refines it further. With the valves closed, the system produces a refined, aggressive howl that stays full-bodied and powerful — no congested, metallic sounds when you’re hard on the throttle. At a cruise, interior acoustics stay close to stock with no drone, so daily driving remains comfortable and quiet.
Key Benefits
AWE’s 180 Technology and SwitchPath™ valve control respond perfectly to the many transmission settings and shift points of the G87. Leave the valves closed and drop the hammer, and SwitchPath™ sings a proper M anthem. Open the valves and the S58’s roar is completely uncorked. Sport mode delivers a powerful, clean, and aggressive exhaust note, while Sport+ mode piles on the same aggression with even more grin-inducing intensity. If you chose to leave the valves closed at all times, you’d still have one of the finest-sounding performance exhaust setups available — it’s that good, all of the time.
