Bro do it! I been following you for a hot minute and I KNOW you would kill it building one of these! You’re one of the reasons I got a WRX and joined the Subi fam!
You don’t need to try anymore exhausts. This is the best one for the VB hands down. I tried muffler deletes, straight pips with a resonated midpipe, now the awe touring and I’m done searching for the perfect exhaust for this car. Every muffler delete and/or in muffled catback sounds exactly the same. Awe uses a slightly thicker gauge metal for the piping and the 180* degree muffler are a thing of beauty. All the tone and rumble without any of the drop, pops and cracks when you want it to. Wish I went with this set up sooner.
keep seein the og frs in different spots on the past few vids so im curious as to whats going on with that! hopefully you're keeping it & rebuilding it again!! can't wait!!!
Kevin, check on your exhaust after driving for about 2 weeks or so. I took care of the exhaust leaks after installing it, a month or so later, leaks left and right. No matter how well i adjusted it or tightened it. The only thing AWD did was just send me new claps. Hopefully those help. Goodluck!
love both versions, I got the track first and it was lovely I liked it a lot, but the touring is a nice tame version. I got the touring conversion kit and it eliminates the drone you slightly get on the track edition. I switch to touring during the winter, and track during the summer. Basically my car is hibernating in the winter lmao and gets let loose in the summer haha
Sounds great! For some reason I much prefer the tone of the same exhaust on the GT86 though. Guess I’m just biased to the sound of higher revving NA engines.
This is quite nice although I think the Nameless Performance catback with their 4 or 5 inch resonators is even better. Their midpipe portion is one long piece, so one less clamp up there, and the clamps are v-band so very secure.
Same! The amount of water it leaks is eye opening. And the black sut that it leaks in combination with the water sucks cause it leaves a stain in the garage
Yea I'm not a fan of slip joint exhausts. It's cheap and they always leak no matter how much you adjust them. Deff wouldn't recommend on a boosted car.
Sounds amazing. I also have the Aeroflow Axel back and wanted to change as well. This sounds great might have to get this one as well. Do you have any other work to car
Hmm that DOES sound good. I hadn't heard of that one when I bought mine so I actually have an ets extreme with resonator going on today. Hopefully I like it, but I think I could change the axel back section for their mufflers... If not I might go with this.
Rule of thumb is to open your parts before you take your car apart. Make sure you have all the parts, otherwise your stick putting you car back together with no new parts added.
Ummm I'm just having a really hard time spending 1,560 dollars on the AWE exhaust system when the sound in crease is at a minimum. The only time you get the boost in sound is when you do a cold start or if your really pushing the car at high rpms. There just isn't that much difference in the stock to the AWE touring in my opinion. I also don't want the loud track version. Thats too much.
Great.. Now I want a 22+ WRX.
Bro do it! I been following you for a hot minute and I KNOW you would kill it building one of these! You’re one of the reasons I got a WRX and joined the Subi fam!
Would love to see your build on your channel!
Sell the sti 😂
DO IT!!!!
Sell the Brz since it’s basically done.
I bet she will sound sick paired with JDMuscle’s UEL headers!!!

better than borla?
This video is really exhausting.
hehe I see what you did there
This was already the exhaust I’m getting but seeing this video now it’s definite
Homie, you do a great job. That cut between laying on the box is that little attention to detail that makes this channel so great. Keep it up dude.
Appreciate you!!
I know this not the GR but this is getting me excited for my catback install this Saturday!!!
Have 5k miles on my awe touring catback so far love it
AWE track version
Grimmspeed Downpipe
Grimmspeed Equal Leagth Headers
Straight up Perfection ❤️
keep seein the og frs in different spots on the past few vids so im curious as to whats going on with that! hopefully you're keeping it & rebuilding it again!! can't wait!!!
We shall see!!
Are you going to be reviewing the Rae-Motorsports exhaust?
MAYBEEEEE 😉
@@KevinVoI have it on good authority you have one of her cat-back systems. 😊
Kevin, check on your exhaust after driving for about 2 weeks or so. I took care of the exhaust leaks after installing it, a month or so later, leaks left and right. No matter how well i adjusted it or tightened it. The only thing AWD did was just send me new claps. Hopefully those help. Goodluck!
I have this exhaust. Had a leak at first. I put the slip joints all the way in and used a little exhaust putty. It's leak free now.
Those lifts look awesome but I’m afraid to see how much they cost.
This is the one. Your videos always help me make my decisions

Probably the best sounding exhaust with mufflers for the VB.
Sounds great! For some reason I much prefer the tone of the same exhaust on the GT86 though. Guess I’m just biased to the sound of higher revving NA engines.
Exhaust sounds great. How do you like those AFD springs?
This is quite nice although I think the Nameless Performance catback with their 4 or 5 inch resonators is even better. Their midpipe portion is one long piece, so one less clamp up there, and the clamps are v-band so very secure.
Can't go wrong with nameless. I ran invidia on my subarus and always loved their exhausts
V-bands are always nice
I was just thinking on my drive home when you would put up a new video and BAM! 😊
Love that!
Any pro tips to make sure it doesnt leak like most say it will? any torque spec?
Where did you get those pinch weld lifts from?
Hey question where can i get the lift you used for the car?
You'll be installing UEL header in the future right lol?
Have this same exhaust - no issues so far. Wish it was held together by bolts instead of hose clamps but the sound has been awesome!
Same! The amount of water it leaks is eye opening. And the black sut that it leaks in combination with the water sucks cause it leaves a stain in the garage

@@MistaGeezy90 how come specially not for a boosted car?
@@cusumano91 exhaust leaks are the devil for boosted cars. Causes weird stuff to happen while driving
@@cusumano91 can cause boost issues as well
Sounds amazing. I also have the Aeroflow Axel back and wanted to change as well. This sounds great might have to get this one as well. Do you have any other work to car
Nope, rest of the exhaust is stock.
Hmm that DOES sound good. I hadn't heard of that one when I bought mine so I actually have an ets extreme with resonator going on today. Hopefully I like it, but I think I could change the axel back section for their mufflers... If not I might go with this.
I have the awe touring on mine I really enjoy
Does it add to performance or is it just louder?
Does your catback leak yet? Sounds great but has a slight leak that won’t go away
I haven't noticed anything
I've had been on 3 months an no leaks but I did have mine professionally installed
Sounds great! Time to razor blade those factory window stickers off my friend.
I will eventually! Haha
Are you selling your old exhaust?
need that light on the rear bumper for my wrx 2023, do you have the link for it ?
www.driven.media/shop/p/22-wrx-f1-style-4th-brake-light
We want the new products for the GR86 video!
Looks and sounds good. I love that lift.
Wish you would criticise those welds as you always do 🤣
AWE is the only way!
It appears as if this AWE Touring Exhaust is quieter on a WRX than a BRZ. Can you confirm that?
Yes it is, the turbo quiets things down.
@@KevinVo thanks bro. was waiting for that loud AWE BRZ.
I love the sound of this exhaust! Maybe I should pick one up for myself
Highly recommend!
anyone know how the drone is on the track edition?
Rule of thumb is to open your parts before you take your car apart. Make sure you have all the parts, otherwise your stick putting you car back together with no new parts added.
I love your work keep it up👍
Thank you so much 😀
My dream car to buy 🙏
keep your work !
Looks cool, but way too loud for me.
I see a new Kevin video, I click on it
Are those CF door trims???
10:06 That duckbill wang looks sexy on this white vb!
Idk whose making me want to get a VB more, you or Tanner @ Smeedia😂
Tag team!
Put the axle back on the new one is not that loud
Louder isn't always better though
Just needs a UEL header now ;)

this thing needs a UEL manifold badly......
Is the WRX banned from the garage? Lol you only work on it outside.
