Watch several videos of popular YT’bers, but for some reason - yours pushed me over the edge. Order the AWE track for my girl “Sasha”. She’s a torch red with two toned red/blk interior 23” HTC Z51 that’s slated to be born on 7.12.23. Unfortunately the dealer I brought her from won’t install the exhaust or other aftermarket parts! I have to find a dealership close to home that will. Thanks for the content to hold me over until she arrives. Subbed 😎

Thank you so much for the great complement. I really appreciate the kind words. I love my AWE exhaust. It actually gets louder over time. I have about 500 miles on it now and I swear it is atleast 25% louder than when I first got it installed. The cold start is a beast! Please respond later and let me know what you think once you get it installed. Have a great week ahead!

Just installed my AWE Touring exhaust BUT please tell me it will get louder as I break it in. AWE claims 700-1500 miles before it fully sets in. Did you find that with yours? I like the fact there is a conversion kit for the track version …I may go to that option if required. Outside of that I love the quality, fit and finish and the 4.5 black diamond tips are MINT!! Great video- thx!!!
@ProtectiveDadPranks
@ProtectiveDadPranks 14 дней назад
Yes mine got louder about 500 miles in. I’ve ridden in a C8 with the conversion kit. There was too much drone for me. To be honest, it’s so loud now. During cold starts I plug my ears if I’m in the garage when it starts.

Thanks so much for the feedback and I was very much hoping you would tell me it will get louder and it will take at least 500 miles. Great that you have been in a car with the track version.
