AWE Track Edition Exhaust for 2016-2018 Volkswagen Jetta 1.4T

Featuring a straight-through design, the AWE Track Edition Exhaust revamps the 2016-2018 Volkswagen Jetta 1.4T's attitude by replacing the rear 180 Technology® resonator with a straight pipe section. AWE says the result is a more pronounced tone in the mid range without being boomy in the cabin: unlocked power and the signature AWE soundtrack, all for the Mk6 Jetta 1.4T.

The cat-back is handcrafted from 2.5" U.S.-sourced, CNC mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel and engineered, designed and manufactured in-house at AWE, with expected max gains of 7 hp and 7 lb-ft of torque to the crank, as seen on the Jetta 1.8T. It finishes with 90mm slash-cut tips featuring the AWE logo, double-walled to keep a mirror finish even under hard usage and individually adjustable so their depth in the bumper can be set to personal taste. AWE does not accept returns of the Track Edition based on volume preference, but if it feels like a bit too much, its conversion kit swaps it to a Touring Edition: just bolt it on and tone it down.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

How loud is the Track Edition?
It is the louder of AWE's two voices, with a more pronounced mid-range tone, but AWE says it is not boomy in the cabin. Listen to AWE's clip above before ordering.

Can I switch editions later?
Yes. AWE sells conversion kits for this system. Simply unclamp the rear Touring or Track section and replace it with the other configuration, with no need for a whole new exhaust.

Do I need a tune?
No. It is a direct bolt-on cat-back with no ECU changes, and AWE backs it with its No Check Engine Light Guarantee.

Will it fit my 1.8T Jetta?
No. This listing is the 1.4T system for the 2016-2018 Jetta S, SE and 2018 Wolfsburg Edition. The 1.8T and 2.0T Jetta use different AWE systems.
