Description
Overview
The Volkswagen (Wagon – 1.8 – AWD) Exhaust System Kit from AWE Tuning is a purpose-built Conversion Kit designed for owners who already run the AWE Track Edition Cat Back and want a more refined driving experience without giving up that full-bodied character. Tired of drone but still want the full-bodied tone of the Track Edition? This kit converts your existing setup into a Touring Edition by swapping the straight-through Track Edition rear sections for AWE’s straight-through, patented drone-canceling 180 Technology® resonators. The result is a mature, road-trip-friendly exhaust system that keeps the aggression on demand while calming things down at cruise.
Key Benefits
Built from durable T304L Stainless Steel, this performance exhaust is engineered to handle heat, resist corrosion, and hold up over years of daily driving and spirited use. The centerpiece is AWE’s 180 Technology®, which uses reflected sound waves to cancel unwanted drone frequencies inside the cabin. That means you get the deep, satisfying tone you love from a catback exhaust setup without the fatiguing hum on the highway. Because this is a bolt-in conversion, there’s no tune required and it carries a No CEL Guarantee, so your car’s electronics stay happy.
- T304L Stainless Steel construction for lasting durability
- Patented 180 Technology® drone-canceling resonators for a quieter cabin
- 3-inch tubing diameter with straight-through flow
- No valves, no tune required, and a No CEL Guarantee
- 50 State Legal voluntary labeling
- Backed by AWE’s Fit Guarantee
What’s Included
This kit provides the straight-through rear sections with 180 Technology® resonators needed to transform your Track Edition into a Touring Edition. Tips are not included, because you already have them from your existing AWE system — simply reuse your current tips during installation. That keeps the conversion focused and cost-effective while delivering the tone and drone control you’re after.
Fitment
This exhaust system kit is designed for the Volkswagen Wagon equipped with the 1.8 engine and AWD, and it specifically converts an existing AWE Track Edition Cat Back into a Touring Edition. AWE backs the kit with a Fit Guarantee, so you can shop for exhaust upgrades with confidence knowing the components are engineered to bolt into place. As a 3-inch, valveless conversion kit, it maintains the straight-through performance of your Track Edition while adding the refinement of the Touring setup.
Whether you’re comparing a Borla exhaust, Corsa exhaust, MagnaFlow exhaust, or Walker exhaust, this AWE Tuning car exhaust conversion stands apart by targeting cabin drone directly with proven 180 Technology®. If you’ve been searching for a performance exhaust that balances tone and comfort, this exhaust system kit delivers a straightforward, no-compromise path from track-focused sound to touring-grade civility.
