I just installed mine last Friday. Love the sound but it's so much louder than I figured it would be lol. Did you notice any reduced performance initially? I feel like the car doesn't pull as hard as it did with the stock exhaust.
@teejaylc hmm I might need to get mine checked for leaks etc. It just doesn't seem to be as zippy anymore but it could also be the weather in my area. Appreciate the reply! Did you notice the tone changed at all after break in?
definitely the exhaust I am going to get. I just wish they had other tip options like brushed, so that the tips would stand out against the already black diffuser
I'm looking for AWE for a while. As you said it has no drone which is good. Just worry about it is gonna be too loud. It looks is sooo good compare to any other exhaust system.
Hey 👋 AWE did a great job when it comes to looks. It was hard to find a good sounding exhaust for the 3 cylinder but I also believe the AWE does a pretty good job compared to the competition. When it comes to being loud.. as long as you get the touring model, you should be ok. I will say that the cold start is pretty loud but after it warms up a bit it calms down. I personally don't like loud exhausts so I think this one is a little bit louder than what I normally would go for. It's just so hard to tell from a video Hope that helps lol
Is that an aftermarket steering wheel? I hate the look of the stock steering wheel, that one looks great. -oops never mind just saw the video of the carbon steering wheel install. Definitely getting one of those.
I have an AWE touring exhaust on my GR too, and I feel like it's a bit too loud on the highway. I think my exhaust has a leak though, since I could not get the driver/passenger side final pieces to fully seat in the middle three way split. I was running out of time on my lift rental and the fitment looked good. I also missed the torque spec in their instructions, even after reading it a couple times. I think my clamps are probably only torqued to 70-80% of what they recommended. How loud is yours on the highway? For me I need my music almost on setting 30-40 to hear it well over the exhaust. I'm going to try and readjust those pipes tomorrow. Edit: This was also my first exhaust install, and my first aftermarket exhaust so I might just need to adjust lol.
If you have a leak it won't be louder, youll hear a hissing noise and it will sound bad. Like air is escaping. I definitely didn't torque any of my bolts. As long as the clamps were fully on before tightening you should be alright. Mine is pretty loud on the highway I would say. Music volume definitely in the 30s
Right outside of Pittsburgh in the south hills. There are a few I see around over here. Hit me up on instgram and we can link up at a show or something
for 45k the car is way too slow for me. 260hp to the wheels is pretty lame tbh especially with really low aftermarket and hardly any tuning available. Can just save up an extra 10k and get a c6 z06 or supra
I love all the different sound clips, this is awesome, I wish everyone put this much effort when reviewing exhausts
Thanks man! I tried to make what I would want to see if I clicked the video! Appreciate you commenting!

I immediately noticed an increase in throttle response and that was about it. Could tell any difference in torque or overall power feel

Honestly, I thought the same thing. AWE should definitely make a few different options for us 👌🏼
Love this AWE exhaust… sounds great 👍🏼
You and me both!
Love the three cylinder sound
It's the best sound !
what did u do to get the rear bunper plastic piece shiny did you paint it or wrap it ?
It's like that from factory. It's the premium edition
@teejaylc thanks

@@teejaylc I will go for the touring for sure. Im a good neighbor who does not wanna annoy others lol. Do you know the GR can do pops and bang?
No pops and bangs @@lisonlili

😄 🤣 no worries. I do like the carbon look over the oem one! You really like it 👍🏼

@@teejaylc thanks! Probably just an adjustment for me then, I love how it sounds pretty much all the time but cruising on the highway lol
Where at in PA? Im up in Erie, I havnt seen any other GRCs
Right outside of Pittsburgh in the south hills. There are a few I see around over here. Hit me up on instgram and we can link up at a show or something
@@teejaylc gotchu
Has yours quieted down at all after some break in miles?
Maybe a little bit but not much. I'd say it just sounds a little better now
What suspension you running ?
Eibach Sportline springs
Sounds like a semi truck at low RPM
I love it
Track or touring?
Touring
Ok, ill buy an AWE exhaust. 😂
Do it !

It's is definitely slow 🐌
It looks really good though lol.
Be careful not to buy an early year of the new supra cause they only have 335hp.
