I ordered the track edition AWE (I like it LOUD) exhaust Saturday afternoon, and it arrived this morning. Fast I couldn't believe it. I have an appointment for installation this Thursday and I'm super excited.

what’s install costing you? I ask cause if you buy it at the Carlisle show they’ll install it for free. Knowing my luck I’ll get a car a few weeks AFTER the event and have to wait a year, which I doubt I’ll be able to do.

Everyone here in Atlanta says they charge around $1000.
It’s an easy install. I paid $275 to have it installed on my first C8 but when I got my second one I did it myself. Basic tools and a friend for an extra set of hands.

Post up a video when you get it installed. I’m interested in the same exhaust. I want to know how much louder it is at idle over stock.

that’s what I’m planning on doing, I have a TPW of 3/20 so I’ll probably get my car sometime the end of april or the beginning of may so I’ll just wait until august and get it installed for free there, to bad they don’t sell a high wing with free install lol
I just bought a 2023 C8 Convertible with NPP exhaust, a bit too quiet for me.
With the AWE Track exhaust, how does it sound on the highway when it kicks in to V4 mode?
I know I can leave it in track mode or manual mode to defeat V4 mode.
I just wonder if in Track Mode on Highway if it will go in to highest gear?
I like an exhaust I can hear all the time when cruising, I actually prefer my exhaust louder when cruising than at WOT.

It's quiet on the highway if you allow it to go into 4 cylinder mode. I usually paddle shift and go into 8th gear manually on the highway. I drive alot in Track mode while paddle shifting. You can always hear this exhaust while cruising if you stay out of cylinder deactivation.

I'd say get the touring edition. Track is loud, touring is usually that perfect median before the factory NPP and the track version.
Yes track mode your car will stay in lower gears for longer.

I have the car set in My Mode with exhaust set to loudest, will that still go in to cylinder deactivation during city driving?

We have both the touring and track in stock.

I made that mistake with my Porsche at first and went with 2.5" x-pipe and it was too quiet, went to the 3" which was said to be too loud, I think it is perfect.
I would go Track or stay stock.

As long as the drone doesn't vibrate and rattle inside the car I would be OK, how bad is it.

It's not that bad. You can hold a conversation, listen to music, no problem. It is loud. Loudest in a convertible with the rear window down.
