Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning 12-16 Porsche 911 (3.4, 3.8) Exhaust System Kit is engineered for the PSE-equipped Porsche 991 Carrera and Carrera 4, delivering more power and a truly unmistakable note without sacrificing everyday refinement. Built as a cat-back exhaust system in premium T304L stainless steel, this SwitchPath™ setup is the answer for drivers who want a genuine performance exhaust that still respects Porsche sophistication.
What sets this AWE SwitchPath™ exhaust apart are its integrated valves, giving you a Track Edition and a Touring Edition all in one exhaust system. The system responds directly to the exhaust valve position commands sent from your Porsche’s ECU based on your throttle input — so the car’s exhaust behavior naturally matches how you drive.
How the SwitchPath™ Works
In “Track,” the SwitchPath™ valve directs exhaust gasses away from the side mufflers for Cup Car levels of announcement. In “Touring,” the valve closes and routes gasses through the stock side mufflers for a sophisticated, signature AWE tone at a volume just slightly above stock. Aggressive throttle input elicits aggressive exhaust volume; tame throttle input keeps things civilized. The result is a car exhaust that transforms on command without any compromise to daily-drivability.
Key Benefits
- Integrated valves deliver two exhausts in one — Track and Touring on demand

Materials & Construction
Every component is crafted from T304L Stainless Steel for long-term corrosion resistance and durability. The 2.5-inch tubing feeds out to four 3.5-inch tips finished in Chrome Silver, giving the rear of the 991 a purposeful, unmistakable presence. As a cat-back exhaust system, it installs behind the catalytic converters and requires no tune to run properly.
Fitment & Peace of Mind
This AWE Tuning exhaust system is designed specifically for 2012-2016 Porsche 911 models with the 3.4L and 3.8L engines equipped with PSE. It carries a Fit Guarantee and a No CEL Guarantee, and it holds a Voluntary 50-State Legal label — so you can add serious performance without warning-light headaches. Tune Required is listed as No, making installation straightforward for a catback exhaust upgrade of this caliber.
If you’re ready to shop for exhaust hardware that blends track-ready sound with touring-grade civility, the AWE SwitchPath™ delivers the best of both worlds. It’s a performance exhaust built to satisfy enthusiasts cross-shopping Borla exhaust, Corsa exhaust, MagnaFlow exhaust and other premium exhaust system options — while keeping the unmistakable character of your 991.
