AWE Tuning Catback Exhaust - Diamond Black (MK6 GTI)

Our exhausts have earned praise from owners and the press alike, due to their unique "Jekyll and Hyde" personality. We spend considerable time and effort during development to achieve remarkable civility when idling and cruising at part throttle, while also producing a war-cry wail when full throttle is applied. Sophisticated, refined, and powerful, all at once.

Put simply, our company culture revolves around one vision: To Unlock Performance. You have it in there... it's just about unlocking it. With every CAD rendering and every test run, we ask ourselves, "Can this be better? Can we unlock more performance?" Whether we're choosing the next intercooler design or fabricating one of our signature 180 Technology® exhausts, we are fanatics and enthusiasts, committed to performance, all without ever sacrificing any of the practicality that you've come to rely on.

In other words, our mission is to become the most trusted partner in precision automotive engineering for enthusiasts like you.

We spent considerable time examining how to maximize the performance and options of this exhaust system. The factory exhaust consists of a long downpipe with two catalytic converters, and two rather large mufflers in the section after the cats.

Here are some features of our system. Each feature was chosen for performance and longevity reasons, and when making your exhaust decisions you should settle for nothing less:

  • Fully mandrel bent tubing
  • Available with Round tips in Chrome Silver or Diamond Black Finishes
  • Thick .065" wall T304 stainless steel tubing
  • Stainless steel internal muffler and resonator construction
  • Stainless steel MIG and TIG welds
  • Stainless steel T-bolt clamps
  • Double walled exhaust tips to reduce heat discoloration
  • Included OEM turbo to downpipe gasket
  • In house dyno developed

The catback system is topped off with your choice of 102mm Slash Cut Tips available in Chrome Silver or a luscious Diamond Black finish. The tips sport laser etched AWE Tuning logos and are double walled to ensure a mirror polish even under hard usage. The system has multiple slip joints with high quality stainless band clamps, to allow optimal adjustment.

Our catback systems will mate up to the stock downpipe, and our downpipe will mate to our catback or any other catback that is designed to mate up to the factory downpipe.

Why did we choose 2.5 inch and not 3.0 inch diameter for our MK6 exhaust? Our first 2.0T exhaust prototypes were indeed 3.0 inch, but we found that the effort it took to move the large mass of air in the 3.0 inch system at lower rpms resulted in a loss of torque with very little offsetting gain up top.
