It swaps the Track Edition's straight mid section for the Touring mid section with AWE's patented drone-canceling 180 Technology® resonator, giving you the sophisticated, drone-free Touring Edition character without buying a whole new exhaust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e180 Technology® cancels the problematic frequencies that cause drone, leaving unlocked performance and an AWE signature note, and AWE says its internals will not break down and degrade over time. The section is handcrafted from CNC mandrel-bent, U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel with a .065\" wall, manufactured in-house by AWE, and fits in place of the Track mid section using the clamps already on your system. Like the rest of the suite, it is backed by AWE's Lifetime Warranty and No Check Engine Light Guarantee.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConverts an
