[@awetuning]

Equip your Mk7 GLI with one of three available AWE exhaust configurations right here: bit.ly/32pKIcg

[@kenskeythomas7082]

Hey, would this exhaust fit on a base jetta s? If not what modifications would be necessary?

[@looseboost2490]

How much weight savings do you get with touring addition vs oem?

[@Bted__ever]

One of the best video's I've seen a company make with the different options. You guys made it easy for me to choose the touring edition on my Gli. Thanks

[@bimmerlife5452]

last setup sounds amazing

[@CanadianCruisin]

The best sounding exhaust out there. My 2019 mustang gets the thumbs up everyday for the awesome sound.

[@CanadianCruisin]

@Hairy Vag very original comment. You get a gold star 👍

[@CanadianCruisin]

@Hairy Vag can't find canada on a map hey

[@CanadianCruisin]

@Hairy Vag wrong again lol. It's Eh. Come on now. A simple Google search and you could have got that one. No gold star this time.

[@Junior403eclipse]

are all 3 setups on this video used on a stock downpipe?

[@dequardo]

My $.02 I have a stock DP and even with the resonated version I found the bass drone from 1600-1900 just too much. Adding a Vibrant ultra-quiet model 1142 resonator in the mid-pipe made it perfect for me. All the major exhaust suppliers, (MBRP, ECS, AWE) advertise 'no drone'. My 67 y/o ears are still good and this is simply not the case for me.

[@MichaelSmith-cm9rl]

Was this on the track or touring exhaust? Did you replace the AWE resonator with the Vibrant or is it used in conjunction with? Thanks. Just bought a GLI and I think it’s the race non resonated version and it is way too loud for me. I assume o have stock DP’s or it would be crazy loud.

[@dequardo]

@@MichaelSmith-cm9rl stock DP. Track resonated version. Left the AWE resonator in place. Added the Vibrant 1142 in the mid pipe section of the AWE where it starts at the mid section of the car.

[@seethekarma]

Sounds so goood!!! Once you get a built engine that will sound incredible!

[@finnhuman1599]

I kinda want it

[@Bullhead_JW]

So I'm looking at different exhaust options, and I'm not sure what to get. Right now I have the stock DP and will for a bit until I get the APR one. My car is a regular daily, and I want it to not be obnoxiously loud while just cruising, but I want it to make some good noise when I get into it. My main goal is to not be obnoxiously loud while crusing or to my neighbors, but still have a really good exhaust note. My inclination is to go straight for touring, but I'm not sure how that will work with the stock DP, but I know once the APR one is on I'll be happy. What do you recommend?

[@liam4210]

What did you end up going with?

[@nedseldomridge2873]

@awetuning are you guys using a catless or catted aftermarket dp with the touring edition in this video?

[@awetuning]

Catted DP.

[@momoo5843]

Can you please confirm that the non res track edition with stock downpipe is still different from a stock exhaust with muff/res delete? And if so what difference will yours have over regular muff and res delete? Thank you looking for a new exhaust for my gli 😁

[@awetuning]

No tuning or remapping is needed to install these exhausts.

[@Unite24]

I’m trying to find the non res track edition exhaust for the 2021 gli and the 19,20,21 should be the same because they are categorized as the mk7 but I can’t seem to find it

[@awetuning]

If it’s the same you can run the 2020. We haven’t gotten to updating that fitment yet. If you’d like to dm us on IG we can work on it for you. @awetuningofficial

[@brodywilson9080]

Question on this? Does the touring work with the stock downpipe? I will eventually upgrade to a CTS downpipe but that is another 500 bucks and before I upgrade DP I want to stage 1 Tune which is about 726. Does the touring fit with stock DP?

[@awetuning]

All of our systems are designed to work with the stock downpipe.

[@RawGreySun]

2017 GLI with stock downpipes, i should go with 1st one?

If you are staying stock DP's, Track is a great choice if a little in-cabin noise increase is ok with your passengers.

[@RawGreySun]

Nope. None of our configurations influence the factory emissions equipment.

One of our own for demonstration purposes.

Stock Downpipe

[@GrimmReaper82]

How does the touring edition sound with the stock down pipe. I want it as quiet as possible but still gaining in weight saving and performance.

[@awetuning]

Go with the Resonated Track Edition -- will be very quiet with the stock DP while weighing less than the Touring Edition.

[@GrimmReaper82]

@@awetuning do you guys have a sound clip of that. A lot of people want to keep running regular fuel in their cars as a means to save money but still want that extra little bit of sound out of their cars

[@awetuning]

​@@GrimmReaper82 negative. The videos posted on the channel are of the exhausts as they're designed and intended to be ran. The Non-Resonated Track Edition is the prefect go-to configuration for those wanting to enhance the soundtrack of their GLI with the factory downpipe.

[@evilwatermelon99]

What’s stopping you from adding a non-res track to a car with an aftermarket down pipe? Other than hearing loss that is.

[@awetuning]

Drone in the cabin at cruising speeds.

[@najminmalcusis15]

So for the first clip, my car will sound like that even with stock downpipe as long as I just get the AWE exhaust. Cause for now not trying to spend another 700-1000 on a DP

[@yosomchaisirikosin3449]

How’s the drone level on the none resonated track exhaust?

[@awetuning]

I can tell you the in general drone is the worst on hatchbacks like the GTI. It’s certainly present on the GLI but really increases with high flow cats.
