AWE Track Edition Exhaust for 2019-2021 VW Jetta GLI MK7, Non-Resonated, Diamond Black Tips

The 2.0-liter turbocharged EA888 in the MK7 Jetta GLI is a willing engine wrapped in a quiet factory exhaust. The AWE Track Edition Exhaust in its Non-Resonated form is AWE's most vocal setup for the 2019-2021 GLI: a straight-through cat-back with zero filter, built for owners who want the car to sound as quick as it feels.

The system is designed specifically around the GLI's factory downpipe. AWE quotes maximum gains of 11 hp and 11 lb-ft of torque at the wheels, and the non-resonated layout removes 32.5 lb compared with the stock exhaust. If you already run an aftermarket downpipe or plan to add one, AWE recommends its Touring Edition instead for a drone-free result.

It finishes in dual 4-inch (102mm) double-walled slash-cut tips with the AWE logo, each individually adjustable for depth in the bumper. Diamond Black is a deep gloss black that suits darker paint and the blacked-out GLI trim.

AWE handcrafts the system from 3-inch and 2.5-inch U.S.-sourced CNC mandrel-bent .065-inch wall T304L stainless steel. It is a direct bolt-on, backed by AWE's Perfect Fitment guarantee, No Check Engine Light guarantee and lifetime warranty (one year on tip finishes). If it ever feels like too much, AWE offers a Track-to-Touring conversion, and a Non-Resonated-to-Resonated conversion that adds a resonated front section.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it fit the 2022-2024 Jetta GLI?
No. The facelifted MK7.5 GLI uses a different AWE system.

I have an aftermarket downpipe. Is this right for me?
AWE recommends the Touring Edition with a downpipe for a drone-free experience.

Will it drone on the highway?
Expect more cabin sound than Touring or Resonated Track. AWE offers conversion kits if you want it quieter later.

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.
