Hey everyone.
I was AWE’s guinea pig for development of their new exhaust for the A90 Supra. After getting the Supra back from them and living with it for a few weeks, here are my thoughts:
I have the Non-Resonated Touring Exhaust on my car with a stock downpipe (for now )
The biggest thing I’ve noticed is how much more substantial the sound is in the driving experience. It makes the car feel more special, even when cruising in traffic. And when you do get on it, it sounds absolutely exotic! I’m addicted!
Yes, the stock exhaust does sound okay, but the AWE system opens up the sound significantly and really fine tunes it.
They do get rid of the active valve, which I was a bit skeptical of at first, but I gotta admit the Touring Edition makes the valve literally irrelevant with the way AWE has tuned the system. The sound fades out nicely while cruising at light throttle, no droning at all. Then when I floor it, the howl of the B58 opens up in full force. It also still pops and crackles in Sport mode like before, that’s all ECU controlled. But the crackles are now ridiculously awesome (and deep!).
I also love the big 5” tips. They seemed like they’d be huge, but they really fit the rear of the car perfectly.
So, overall, I’m pretty thrilled so far. I'm sure it will get even better with age, but for now it has just made my Supra feel even more special when I’m behind the wheel. Looking forward to letting you all hear it for yourselves at shows this year!
Stay tuned for more updates as the build continues to grow.
