Description
The AWE SwitchPath Exhaust for 2023-2025 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 5.5L (C8) pairs an application-specific exhaust layout with the configuration shown below. This listing is supplied in the Chrome Silver Tips configuration.
Engineering and driving character
SwitchPath is designed for drivers who want a more expressive exhaust note with valve-controlled changes in sound. The quieter and louder operating characters depend on the valve configuration and the vehicle’s control strategy.
SwitchPathunleashes a signature soundtrack out of the Z06, whether the valves are open or closed, thanks to its specifically tuned straight-through mufflers and precision-engineered X-pipe.
It’s aggressive with the valves closed, and viscous with them open–just how a high-revving flat-plane V8 should be.
Technical details
- Listed configuration: Chrome Silver Tips.
- Double-walled, slash-cut tips; the supplied finish is specified in this listing.
Compatibility and installation
- Built for the long haul: not only does SwitchPath feature tier 1 OEM-supplied valves, included in every kit is a set of machined aluminum brackets to accommodate the factory valve motors and their factory linkage, keeping them away from the hot exhaust prolonging the lifespan of the electronics.
- No valve relearn, ever: there's no need for a post-install visit to your local dealer for a valve relearn.
- Further, these valves won’t rattle a year later after installation – others on the market will.
- Stealth shielding: two machined aluminum heat shields bolt-on to the Z06’s bumper using factory mounting points allowing the exhaust to shine through the mesh while protecting the inside of the bumper.
