Description
Overview
The AWE Tuning Subaru (Sedan – 2.5 – AWD) Exhaust System Kit is a purpose-built cat back exhaust system engineered specifically around the EJ25 BOXER® engine. Rather than forcing one exhaust to cover multiple platforms, AWE went ground-up on the Touring Edition to create something truly unique to this chassis. The result is a direct bolt-on, full 3″ straight-through design that lets the VA STI, GV WRX, and GV STI Sedan deliver their famous rumble — without the rasp or in-cabin drone that plagues lesser systems. If you’re ready to shop for exhaust that actually complements the BOXER® character, this is a performance exhaust developed for exactly that.
Sound & 180 Technology®
The centerpiece of this exhaust system is AWE’s proprietary drone-canceling solution, 180 Technology®. It preserves the signature Subaru rumble while cutting the harsh in-cabin frequencies, and it introduces intoxicating crackles on every shift. In short, the Touring Edition compliments the EJ25 in every way — a refined, daily-livable tone that still turns heads. Seriously.
Build & Materials
Every component is fabricated from durable T304L Stainless Steel with 3″ tubing throughout the straight-through design for smooth, unrestricted flow. The kit is finished with four Chrome Silver tips measuring 4″ in diameter, giving the rear of your car a purposeful, factory-plus stance. As a genuine cat back exhaust pipe upgrade, it installs as a direct bolt-on — no tune required and no fabrication needed.
Highlights
- Full 3″ straight-through, direct bolt-on cat back design

- Four 4″ Chrome Silver tips for an aggressive finished look
- 180 Technology® drone-canceling solution with shift crackles

- No valves, no tune required, 50 State Legal, No CEL Guarantee
Fitment & Confidence
This exhaust system kit is designed for the Subaru Sedan 2.5 AWD platform — the VA STI, GV WRX, and GV STI Sedan. It’s backed by AWE’s Fit Guarantee and No CEL Guarantee, and it carries a Voluntary 50 State Legal label, so you can install with confidence knowing it bolts on without triggering check engine lights. Because there are no valves and no tune is required, this is a straightforward upgrade over your restrictive factory car exhaust.
Grow With Your Build
AWE also makes it easy to evolve your setup down the road. Thanks to available Conversion Kits, you can convert from a Track Edition to a Touring Edition — or vice versa — if you decide later to turn the volume up or dial it back. Whether you’re comparing options against a Borla exhaust, Corsa exhaust, MagnaFlow exhaust, or Walker exhaust, this AWE Tuning catback exhaust delivers a purpose-built, EJ25-specific character that’s hard to match.
