Description
The AWE SwitchPath Exhaust for Porsche 991 pairs an application-specific exhaust layout with the configuration shown below. This listing is supplied in the For Non-PSE Cars / No 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.
The AWE Porsche 991 SwitchPath Exhaust responds to the exhaust valve position commands sent from your Porsche’s ECU dependent on your throttle input.
This means that the AWE Porsche 991 SwitchPath Exhaust will transform from “Track” (The SwitchPath valve directs exhaust gases away from the side mufflers, for Cup Car levels of “announcement”) to “Touring” (The SwitchPath valve closes, routing exhaust gases through the stock side mufflers, for a sophisticated, signature AWE tone, at a volume slightly above stock).
Technical details
- Listed configuration: For Non-PSE Cars / No Tips.
- T304 stainless steel construction.
