Description
Overview
Built for the 2018–2023 BMW M5 Sedan (4.4L, AWD), the AWE Tuning Track Edition Exhaust System Kit is engineered for drivers who want their car exhaust to sound as serious as it drives. This Axle Back configuration is the most cost-effective way into AWE’s aggressive lineup, retaining the M5’s factory mid-section while replacing the rear sections with Track Edition straight pipes. If raw and rowdy are your speed, this is your dose of steel — but be warned, these versions are known to get loud, and because of that character this version cannot be returned due to sound preference. Prepare yourself.
Key Benefits
Constructed from durable T304L stainless steel, this performance exhaust delivers a bold, uncompromising note without valves and without the need for a tune. AWE designed the entire AWE Exhaust Suite for the M5 as a fully modular platform, so if you decide you want the full Cat Back experience down the road, you can step up at any time. Keep in mind that the Performance Mid Pipes or an Axle Back alone will require cutting, while the full Cat Back bolts right up.
Finishing the system are AWE’s signature 4-inch double-walled, slash-cut tips — four in total, in a Chrome Silver finish. Each tip is individually adjustable, letting you dial in exactly how far they sit into the bumper according to your personal taste, giving your exhaust system a factory-caliber, tailored appearance.
Highlights
- Track Edition Axle Back design that retains the factory mid-section and swaps in straight pipes for maximum aggression
- T304L Stainless Steel construction for lasting durability
- 3-inch tubing diameter feeding four 4-inch double-walled, slash-cut tips in Chrome Silver
- Individually adjustable tips for custom bumper depth and fitment
- No valves, No 180 Technology, and no tune required — straightforward, purpose-built sound
- Backed by an AWE Fit Guarantee and a No CEL Guarantee
Fitment & Compliance
This exhaust pipe kit is a direct fit for the 18–23 BMW M5 Sedan with the 4.4L engine and AWD. It carries a 50-State Legal voluntary label and includes AWE’s No CEL Guarantee, so you get the growl without a check-engine headache. Because this is an Axle Back-only setup, installation requires cutting; opt for the full Cat Back path later for a bolt-up experience.
When you shop for exhaust upgrades for your M5, this AWE catback-ready platform gives you a clear path from an aggressive Axle Back today to a complete exhaust system tomorrow. Whether you’re comparing a Borla exhaust, Corsa exhaust, or MagnaFlow exhaust, the AWE Track Edition stands out with its modular engineering, premium stainless build, and signature quad-tip styling — a true performance exhaust for M5 owners who want to be heard.
