AWE Touring Edition Exhaust for 2015-2023 Mercedes-AMG C43, C450, C400 W205

The AWE Touring Edition Exhaust gives the 3.0-liter twin-turbo W205 C-Class all of its sophistication plus a lot more rumble. Built specifically for the AMG C43 sedan and coupe, the C450 AMG and the C400, it uses AWE's proprietary 180 Technology® drone-cancellation in the rear sections, so you get a deeper, richer V6 note under throttle and a quiet, drone-free cabin when you are cruising.

The layout is clean and straight-through. A precision X-pipe merges the two banks for a smooth, rasp-free tone, and the 2.5-inch tubing is CNC mandrel-bent from U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel in AWE's own shop. Because 180 Technology® reflects drone frequencies back out of phase rather than blocking flow with baffles, the Touring Edition still delivers AWE's quoted gains of up to 7 hp and 13 lb-ft of torque at the crank.

It is a direct bolt-on to the factory mounting points and keeps your factory tips, so the car looks stock but sounds properly AMG. If you ever want more, the AWE Touring-to-Track Conversion Kit swaps the rear sections for straight pipes without replacing the whole system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it drone?
No. The 180 Technology® rear sections are designed to cancel the frequencies that cause cabin drone.

Do I keep my factory tips?
Yes. The system retains the factory tips, so the rear of the car looks stock.

Is it street legal?
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.

My C43 has the AMG Performance Exhaust. Does it fit?
Yes, with the AWE Electronic Valve Simulators (1310-11018) added to keep the valve system happy.
