phillyspecial from Dallas. Tell me you are an E-A-G-L-E-S fan!

Post a audio/video when you are done. Would love to hear. I am on the fence between the two, but leaning towards the track.

This is the exact same setup I have. Very loud on cold start but sounds amazing under part throttle.

Hopefully I get to listen to your or Phillyspecial’s setup one day. All of these AWE options cancel out NPP though right?

I would personally go with the Touring. While usually I go with the loudest setup, the Touring AWE is very loud and sounds amazing, very aggressive. I know, the "touring" name makes it sound like a mild exhaust but it's not.





Those 1st two videos are my car with non-resonated Touring edition.

...and you're right it's pretty aggressive. No need for the track edition which is basically straight pipes.

Yep, I'm aware. I should have put your name in there too as I had Todd. I don't know why I didn't. Will edit.

No need for that... I didn't want anyone to think they were all the same system.

But then the videos have titles..

Haha I am! Grew up in Philadelphia.

I’ll post the video sometime this week. Going for the install tomorrow.

Correct, you lose NPP with this exhaust.

I am running the Touring Non-Res. CB with the PLP (perf. link pipes...ie....secondary cat deletes.)

Cold starts are down right scary loud lol. I love it buy my wife warns me not start the car in the garage if she is behind it. It sounds absolutely amazing at WOT....angry AF! At cruising speeds under no load, its almost stock sounding. 80mph cruising it has such a nice little hum but nothing bad....just sounds GOOD and I don't miss the NPP one bit.

I go back all the way to my first Camaro...1993 Z28. then 2 fox body mustangs...then two S550 (6th gen mustang GTs). All modified and I will say this is one of the best sounding exhausts I have owned on my cars. There is no drone hardly at all compared to a couple of my other cars setups.

I did have an issue with the PLP pipes with the A10 and a cooler line but I was able to get it resolved. If anyone has any questions, let me know...be happy to answer if I can.

What’s the difference between resonated and non-resonated? Why choose one over the other? Does one have more drone?

I got to hear an AWE touring catback exhaust 2 weeks ago at a car meet...freakin amazing. I don’t know if it was resonated or not.

Have headers or are getting headers eventually? Resonated.

Cat-back only, for life? Non-resonated.

Resonated just puts two ...bullet style (wont call them mufflers but..kinda what they do) In line on each pipe to help quiet it down some.

I have zero drone with mine being non resonated and I will be going catless with LTs once I am ready to tune. It will be loud af but I dont care. Its not my daily and I dont track where I have to worry about db levels or anything. My old 93z had longtubes catless into 3" 1chamber flowmasters back in they day. Sounded totally badass with the big cam and all but it would drone bad if you lugged the motor.

Check out their sound level chart which explains your question pretty well. Resonators will step it down one notch on sound level. I don't have resonators and also have no drone but if I did I could add the resonator later.
