Description
Overview
Luxury with teeth — the AWE Tuning SwitchPath™ Exhaust brings a push-button attitude to the 2022-2026 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing. Engineered specifically for the Sedan, 6.2L, RWD configuration, this cat back exhaust system is the definitive upgrade for the LT4 enthusiast who demands peak performance without sacrificing interior serenity. Why settle for a muffled factory note or a drone-heavy setup when a single, intelligently valved car exhaust delivers the best of both worlds?
Composed of dual 3-inch U.S. T304L stainless steel tubing, this performance exhaust transforms the Blackwing into a sophisticated beast: a refined howl for the daily commute and an uncorked roar for the track. A bespoke X-pipe is built in to smooth the 6.2L rasp, while integrated machined valve brackets house the factory valve motors so all OEM characteristics remain fully intact.
SwitchPath™ Valve Technology
This is a genuine valved exhaust system. When the valves are closed, acoustics stay close to stock with zero drone — perfect for long commutes and refined cruising. Open them in Sport or Track mode and the LT4 is fully uncorked for a powerful, clean, and aggressive tone. The push-button control puts the entire acoustic range at your fingertips, so the same exhaust pipe setup that whispers through the neighborhood can shout on the track.
Emissions & Fitment
Because the system begins after the factory mid-pipe, it remains 100 percent emissions compliant and carries a Voluntary 50 State Legal label. No tune is required, and AWE backs the fit with a Perfect Fitment Guarantee and a No CEL Guarantee, so installation is straightforward and worry-free. Whether you’re comparing a Borla exhaust, Corsa exhaust, MagnaFlow exhaust, or Walker exhaust, this AWE catback exhaust is purpose-built for the CT5-V Blackwing platform.
