AWE Touring Axle-Back Exhaust for C6 Corvette Z06 and ZR1
The AWE Touring Edition axle-back is built for C6 Corvette Z06 and ZR1 owners who want a sharper, more aggressive exhaust note under throttle while keeping cruising tone more controlled. This system replaces the rear muffler section and finishes the car with quad 4.5” double-walled tips in your choice of chrome silver or diamond black.

Why AWE Leads
- Platform-specific exhaust engineering focused on clean fitment and stable tip alignment
- 180 Technology targets the tones that tend to become annoying at steady cruise
- T304L construction and mandrel-bent routing for long-term durability and consistent flow
- Two tip finishes so you can match the rear look to your build
Benefits
- More presence and bite when you get into the throttle
- More controlled cruising behavior versus “boomy” rear-muffler deletes
- Rear-exit quad tip layout updates the C6 Z06/ZR1 stance visually
- Direct-fit axle-back format keeps the change focused on sound and rear aesthetics
What to Expect After Installation / Use
Expect a stronger, more defined exhaust note compared to stock, with the Touring Edition aimed at staying more livable during steady-speed driving. After the first heat cycle, re-check clamps/fasteners and confirm tip centering once everything has fully seated.
