Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning Touring Edition Exhaust System Kit is engineered to transform your 2012-2018 Volkswagen Jetta Sedan (1.8T and 2.0) with a slightly more aggressive yet sophisticated tone. This complete cat-back exhaust system replaces the large, restrictive stock rear muffler with a straight-through resonator, delivering the refined, purposeful sound VW enthusiasts want without the intrusive drone that plagues lesser upgrades. If you have been searching to shop for exhaust upgrades that balance daily-driver comfort with real performance character, the Touring Edition hits the mark.
Built from durable T304L Stainless Steel, this performance exhaust is designed for the long haul, resisting corrosion and holding its finish through years of hard use. The 2.5-inch tubing diameter and resonated midsection are carefully tuned to enhance flow and tone while keeping the driving experience civil around town and on the highway.
Key Benefits
At the heart of this catback exhaust is AWE’s proprietary 180 Technology, a drone-canceling solution built into the straight-through resonator. It cancels the annoying cabin resonance that typically comes with a freer-flowing exhaust system, so you enjoy a deeper, richer note without the fatigue. This car exhaust is engineered to fit and function flawlessly, backed by a Fit Guarantee and a No CEL Guarantee, and it requires no tune to install.

Tip Options & Upgrade Paths
This kit is finished with two Chrome Silver tips, each featuring the AWE logo and double walling to maintain a mirror finish even under hard usage. All tips are individually adjustable, letting you set the depth into the bumper according to personal taste for a factory-precise, custom look. Choose the configuration that dials in the exact aesthetic you want.
Think it is too loud or too quiet down the road? Perfectly engineered conversion paths let you move between the Touring Edition and Track Edition with ease. Simply unclamp the rear Touring or Track Edition sections and swap in the new configuration, giving you flexibility as your tastes evolve.
Fitment
This exhaust system kit is designed specifically for the 2012-2018 Volkswagen Jetta Sedan equipped with the 1.8 or 2.0 engine. Backed by AWE’s Fit Guarantee, it is built to bolt on and perform as intended, making it a confident choice whether you are comparing a borla exhaust, magnaflow exhaust, or corsa exhaust against a purpose-built VW upgrade.
