I would think an AWE exhaust with a 400 catted DP ( avoid CEL and reduced smell) for a better exhaust tone and slight performance bump.

But, Unfortunately you would need a custom tune to optimize it all (including pure turbo, etc….)

If you don't mind me asking, what were your experiences with the Race chip/JB4 ?
how is it with the resonators now on the awe touring? i want more exhaust sound but not too much. i liked the 2020s stock note with valves open
100% better!!

Doesn't sound like a wall of noise in the cabin, zero drone especially when in comfort/adaptive mode.

There's still a nice rumble outside, and when in sport/sport+ it gets more raucous but not over the top.

If you have an aftermarket down pipe, I highly recommend the resonated version.

I find myself making excuses to drive!

Even with the valves closed you think it willl still be loud, I really only want it loud in sport

Correct. No valves with AWE. But, between the 180 muffler and resonators (w/ aftermarket DP)it's very well balanced in comfort/eco, very close to stock and with sport it gives a low rumble while cruising… at WOT it's loud but in a good way!!

It's subjective, one of those things you gotta try for yourself. Took me a couple of tries to get the right combo.
