Arrow [WATCH] Presenting the AWE Exhaust Suite for the Gen6 Camaro SS/ZL1. Available now.



6.2 liters of hell yeah! Presenting the AWE Exhaust Suite for the Gen6 Camaro SS (click here to be taken to the thread with links to pricing information):
  • Proudly engineered, designed, and manufactured in-house, in the USA
  • Dual and quad tip, catback and axleback. Options for all
  • No compromises: all muscle, zero drone
  • Available as sophisticated Touring Edition or the raucous Track Edition
  • Peak gains of 11 hp and 5 ft-lbs of torque, and max gains of 16 hp and 10 ft-lbs of torque to the crank
  • Touring Edition features AWE’s proprietary straight-through drone-canceling solution, 180 Technology®
  • Handcrafted from 3” U.S.-sourced CNC mandrel-bent .065” wall T304L stainless steel
  • Precision-engineered X-pipe is standard in each catback configuration
  • 4.5” double-walled tips in chrome silver or diamond black
  • Less is more: clean, non-baffled, straight-through design maximizes performance
  • Direct bolt-on catback systems when paired with Performance Link Pipes
  • No Check Engine Light -- Guaranteed
  • Perfect Fitment -- Guaranteed
  • Featuring the AWE Lifetime Exhaust Warranty (one year on tip finishes)
    -----
  • AWE catback systems will fit Gen6 ZL1 Coupes with manual and automatic transmissions.
  • We do not recommend installing AWE catbacks on Gen6 SS Coupes with automatic transmissions due to their AFM valves.
  • AWE catbacks will not fit Camaro Convertible models of any type.
The Touring Edition Exhaust



Touring Edition Catback:

A straight through design, the AWE Touring Edition Exhaust is a full 3” T304L stainless steel configuration featuring a precision-engineered X-pipe that brings out a smooth, yet ultra-aggressive muscle tone with no drone throughout the entire range thanks to AWE’s 180 Technology®. The AWE Touring Edition Exhaust is available with resonated or non-resonated mid pipes.

Sound Perfection: 180 Technology® by AWE.

As exhaust gases exit the Camaro SS’ 6.2L engine and flow into an AWE 180 Technology® equipped resonator, they pass through strategically located ports, and into reflection chambers. Sound waves, carried by these exhaust gasses, bounce off the walls of the reflection chambers. By controlling the size and location of the ports and the chambers, we also control when the sound waves exit the chambers. The specific timing of when the reflected sound waves rejoin the main exhaust flow creates a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree out-of-phase sound wave that cancels out problematic frequencies. Call it science, call it magic, or call it 180 Technology® by AWE.









Touring Edition Axleback:

In axleback form, the AWE Touring Edition Exhaust retains the SS’ factory mid-section, coming in right at the rear axle. The axleback AWE Touring Edition Exhaust maintains a 3” diameter, shaves weight from the rear, and features AWE’s drone-canceling solution, 180 Technology®.





The Track Edition Exhaust



Track Edition Catback:

If raw and rowdy are your speed, the catback Track Edition is your dose of steel. The loudest of the lot, the AWE Track Edition Exhaust retains all the engineering and precision of the Touring Edition Exhaust, including the X-pipe and 3” diameter tubing, minus the 180 Technology®. The result? Completely raw wake-the-dead level muscle. This version, like the Touring Edition, is available with resonated or non-resonated mid pipes.







Track Edition Axleback:

The AWE Track Edition Exhaust in axleback form provides the most cost-effective aggression in the lineup by retaining the SS’ factory mid section and replacing the rear sections with Track Edition straight pipes.

Please note: This version is known to get rowdy (like, really rowdy), and may be too much for many.





Performance Link Pipes:

AWE Performance Link Pipes provide an increase in volume by bridging the gap between the primary factory catalysts and AWE catback exhausts.
Please note: the Performance Link Pipes are for racing use only.

Important notes:
Please note that Track Edition Exhausts and Performance Link Pipes can not be returned for sound reasons--they’re not for the faint of heart, so choose your weapon wisely!



Tip Options:

All tip options include the AWE logo and double-walling to ensure a mirror finish even under hard usage. All tips are individually adjustable, allowing depth into the bumper to be set according to personal taste.
  • 4.5” slash-cut diamond black tips
  • 4.5” slash-cut chrome silver tips

Dual to quad tip versions (or vice versa) will require a new valance. But you knew that.










Conversion Kits:

We made it easy to convert catbacks from a Track Edition to a Touring Edition, non-resonated to resonated, or vice vesa if you decide at a later date to turn it up or turn it down.

Volume guide:



What’s in the box?

Complete Touring or Track Edition Catback/Axleback, two or four 4.5” tips in desired finish, and all required installation hardware.

Looks and sounds great!

A couple of quick questions:

Your "Link Pipes", do those just delete the secondary cats? Are they bolt on?

I am not so concerned with gaining power as I am with losing power. With the non-resonated Track cat back system, did you find any power or torque loss?

Do you by chance have the actuall decibel of your full non resonated Track cat back system?

Thanks in advance.

The Performance Link Pipes , when paired with the CBEs, make the entire system bolt on. Yes, they do delete the secondary units.

The Touring and Track Editions are both straight-through design, and share the same makeup aside from 180 Technology, which is only featured on the Touring Edition. They produce the same power.

I do not have dB readings.

What is the likelihood of the LinkPipes fitting the stock mid pipe?

Unlikely. They are designed for our systems.

Taking a moment to reiterate fitments for everyone so it's clear.

Applicable AWE configurations for manual and automatic ZL1 coupes: catbacks and axlebacks.

Applicable AWE configurations for manual SS coupes: catbacks and axlebacks.

Applicable AWE configurations for automatic SS coupes: axleback (due to the AFM valves. Yes, the catbacks will fit, but we do not recommend installing them due to the ECU and it necessity of having communication with the valves. Yes, we know they can be programmed )

Applicable AWE configurations for all convertible models (SS/ZL1): axlebacks only at this time (due to the additional structural elements included in the convertible's undercarriage.)

I'm hearing that there's talk of our Track Edition having the same feature set as our Touring Edition.

This is incorrect. 180 Technology™ -- i.e. our drone-canceling solution, is only featured in the Touring Editions (catback and axleback). The Track Editions do not feature 180 Technology™, and are subject to drone.

Questions? Hit me.

Hi, everyone!

Let’s take a moment to talk about valve anxiety. It’s common. It’s normal. It’s something with some determination and focus, we can work through, together.

AWE’s 180 Technology was developed as a simple, elegant solution to get rowdy when you want it, but be civil when you don’t. And it works without valves. Check this out:

Rowdy, but :


Bluetooth call approved, note we’re in a drone zone (but there’s no drone).


We developed 180 Technology (which is patent pending, by the way) on European exotics, and when we brought it over to the modern muscle market, it was received ridiculously well. People loved it, and those who have gone 180 Technology have never looked back.

It replaces valves, it’s a straight through design that gives you the sound when you want it, and a perfect cruising, drone-free tone when you are feeling chill. I’ve lived in this car for 6 months, and I never once felt the urge or need to be able to have valving. You don’t need it. Those who have experienced 180 Technology agree, for the Camaro, it’s the cure. Trust us, we’ve been at it for 27 years. Or don’t trust us, and listen to people who have the system! It rocks.
