The Options

SwitchPath™ Exhaust:

Smooth bends, tight packaging, and two attitudes. The SwitchPath™ Exhaust is comprised of handcrafted 3-inch and 2.5-inch U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel with a valved passenger-side tip outlet.

SwitchPath™ retains the factory valve behavior, and obeys the RS 3’s ECU commands based on throttle input, engine speed, and Drive Select. Sneaking out in the morning or creeping through town? Close the valve. Drop the hammer (or click into Dynamic mode), and your RS 3 will sing a signature AWE tune with enhanced RS burbles that will provoke a firm grin.

Track Editon Exhaust

The Track Edition takes all of the precision engineering and performance of its SwitchPath™ counterpart, minus the valve on the passenger’s side. The result is a constant “valve open” mode. If you’re craving rich 5-cylinder tone at all times, this is your dose of steel.

Performance Mid Pipes

To complement the SwitchPath™ and Track Edition Exhaust, equip the Performance Mid Pipe. No resonators, just straight T304 stainless steel from flanges to slip joints (why would anyone use anything else, right?). The Performance Mid Pipes are designed to be compatible with AWE exhausts and the factory exhaust and can be purchased with your chosen exhaust configuration right out of the gate, or at a later date.

Please note: The AWE Performance Mid Pipes are for Racing Use Only.

Tip Options

AWE SwitchPath™ and Track Edition come standard with diamond black 180mm RS-style oval tips, complete with stamped AWE logo.
