Product Description

LUXURY. WITH TEETH.

DUAL PERSONALITIES OF SWITCHPATH:

The AWE SwitchPath brings no drone, minimal bends, maximum flow, and push-button attitude. The SwitchPath Exhaust is composed of dual 3-inch U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel, a bespoke x-pipe, and a valved SwitchPath muffler tuned specifically for the LT4. 

Beginning after the factory mid-pipe, the bespoke X-pipe immediately helps smooth the 6.2L of its rasp, providing an exotic tone before it's refined further by the bespoke SwitchPath muffler in the rear. Integrated machined valve brackets house the factory valve motors with precision to ensure all of the Blackwing’s valve characteristics remain intact and operate the same as the factory exhaust. 

The closed valve experience:

When the valves are closed, the SwitchPath Exhaust produces a refined, aggressive howl while remaining full-bodied and powerful – no congested, metallic sounds when on the throttle. At cruising speeds, interior acoustics are close to stock with no drone at cruising speeds. AWE SwitchPath tech also responds perfectly to the factory parameters designated by the drive modes, opening the valves when reaching the designated throttle threshold.

The opened valve experience:

Open the valves and the LT4 roar is uncorked. Sport & Track modes achieve the ultimate contrast in behavior when compared to the Tour driving mode (valves closed). In Sport or Track mode, the exhaust note is powerful, clean, and aggressive. Thanks to the precision X-pipe and bullet-style resonators, the rasp is still kept in check while allowing the exhaust note to reach full aggression.

If you’re looking for the best of both worlds (i.e. drone-free, clean aggression), and want to retain your factory valve behavior all while gaining peace of mind (i.e. emissions compliance), look no further than SwitchPath. This is the one exhaust for the Blackwing that delivers the desired emotion at part throttle, where most spend their time driving, that leaves you wanting to get into boost and rev it out a bit further before shifting gears, no matter the drive mode.

LET’S TALK TIPS:

Finish it off with signature 4.5” double-walled, slash-cut tips in your choice of chrome silver or diamond black—each stamped with the AWE logo and individually adjustable for precise placement.

100% EMISSION-FRIENDLY:

AWE Exhausts do not interfere with any factory emissions equipment.
