The AWE Tuning SwitchPath Exhaust

The Audi R8 4.2L SwitchPath Exhaust sets a new standard. Beyond the hand crafted detail that is standard for every AWE Tuning Performance Exhaust, this one packs a little something special: The R8 4.2L Exhaust incorporates a proprietary mechanical valve system that controls sound volume:

  • Under part throttle and idle, valves route exhaust gasses through a central muffler, keeping sound tame and drone free.
  • At 3/4 throttle application and more, the valves open and the system is unleashed " going into straight pipe mode.
  • An in-cabin mounted electronic SwitchPath Remote toggles the mechanical valves between normal and straight pipe mode. Practical.

The SwitchPath Exhaust line has set a new bar. SwitchPath Exhaust highlights include:

  • Designed and manufactured in-house at AWE Tuning
  • Crafted from T304 stainless steel
  • Uses Factory Tips
  • No CEL with full system or straight pipes
  • German Engineered control valves
  • CNC machined V-Band connections
  • One piece, full bolt on system means easy and reversible installation
  • Programming optimised for R8 engine characteristics
  • Lifetime Warranty
