Overview

The 2.5-liter five-cylinder in the Volkswagen Rabbit and Golf has a unique, uneven-firing sound that the factory exhaust mostly hides. The AWE Performance Cat-Back Exhaust lets it out, giving the 2.5L a deep and muscular sound that suits the engine's character.

AWE builds the system from T304L stainless steel and measured a gain of 8 hp at the crank. It replaces everything from the catalytic converter back, finishes in chrome tips and bolts up to the factory hangers with no tune required.

AWE backs this exhaust with its Lifetime Guarantee, Perfect Fitment guarantee and No Check Engine Light guarantee, so it is a straightforward upgrade for a daily-driven Rabbit or Golf.
