AWE Touring Edition Exhaust (Axle-Back) for 2022-2026 Subaru WRX (VB)

The AWE Touring Edition Axle-Back Exhaust for the 2022-2026 Subaru WRX exists because, as AWE put it, the VB market was after a sound similar to the AWE cat-back at a lower price point, with the same level of engineering. The Touring Edition uses AWE's patented drone-canceling 180 Technology® to deliver a refined in-cabin experience at cruising speeds, with a deep BOXER® tone when you open it up.

It is handcrafted from 2.5" CNC mandrel-bent, U.S.-sourced .065" wall T304L stainless steel and bolts directly to the WRX's factory mid-section via OEM-matched flanges. AWE includes new gaskets, so installation is a genuine bolt-on with no tune required. At 23 lbs it is lighter than the 26 lb factory system, and it finishes with quad 4" double-walled, slash-cut tips in Chrome Silver, Diamond Black or Vapor Blue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the AWE Touring Edition axle-back legal on a VB WRX?
AWE lists this system as 50 State Legal because it does not tamper with any emissions control or monitoring devices; it bolts on behind the catalytic converters. AWE does not publish a CARB Executive Order number for it, and local sound limits vary, so check the rules where you drive.

How loud is the Touring Edition on the WRX?
Touring is AWE's refined option. Its patented 180 Technology® cancels the drone-prone frequencies at cruising speeds, while the deep, aggressive BOXER® tone comes through under throttle.

How does the axle-back install?
It bolts directly to the WRX's factory mid-section through OEM-matched flanges, and AWE includes new gaskets, so it is a genuine bolt-on installation with no tune required.

How much weight does it save?
AWE lists the Touring Edition axle-back at 23 lbs against 26 lbs for the stock system.

Cat-back or axle-back?
AWE built the axle-back for VB owners who wanted a sound similar to the AWE cat-back at a lower price point. If you want the full 3" system and AWE's quoted 7 hp gain, see the cat-back.
