Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning SwitchPathâ„¢ Cat Back Exhaust System Kit is engineered specifically for the 2024-2026 Ford Mustang (Coupe, 5.0L, RWD) built on the Ford S650 Dark Horse platform. This valved performance exhaust retains all the customization of the factory active exhaust while unleashing the Dark Horse’s 5.0L V8 with the push of a button or the drop of a hammer. Whether you’re cruising quietly or chasing an aggressive roar, this exhaust system adapts on command — sophistication and raw power in one purpose-built package.
Constructed from premium T304L stainless steel, the SwitchPathâ„¢ catback exhaust features a full 3″ tubing diameter design with modular inlets. Slip-fit adapters allow seamless integration with factory headers, and there’s the option for a dual 3″ connection for drivers seeking an even more aggressive setup. Tier-1 valving, drive modes, customized settings, and programmable buttons respond promptly to your commands, so your car exhaust experience is exactly as loud — or as refined — as you want it.
Sound & Performance
The precision H-pipe delivers a deep, rich muscle tone with minimal rasp, unlike an X-pipe design. Straight-through bullet-style resonators in the mid pipes further minimize rasp, making this an ideal exhaust system for drivers who are also considering header upgrades. On the performance front, AWE backs this borla-rivaling setup with dyno-verified gains of +8 horsepower and +8 lb-ft of torque at the wheels.
Tips & Finish
The package is completed with quad 5″ slash-cut, double-walled tips in a striking Diamond Black finish. With four tips total and a 4″ tip diameter, the rear fascia gets an unmistakable, aggressive presence that matches the added power.
Emissions & Fitment
This SwitchPathâ„¢ Cat Back is 100% emission-friendly and seamlessly integrates with factory emissions equipment. It’s rated 50-State Legal, requires no tune, and carries a No CEL (Check Engine Light) Guarantee. AWE also backs the kit with a Fit Guarantee, so you can install with confidence knowing the system is engineered precisely for the S650 platform.
