Does the AWE Touring Edition Axle-Back Exhaust fit both the F30 340i and F32 440i, and does it fit GranCoupe variants?

Yes to all. The AWE Touring Edition Axle-Back Exhaust is confirmed to fit the F30 340i and F30 340i xDrive from 2016 through 2018, and the F32 440i, 440i Gran Coupe, 440i xDrive, and 440i xDrive Gran Coupe from 2017 through 2020. All variants across both manual and automatic transmissions, and both RWD and xDrive drivetrains are confirmed fitments.

Does the AWE Touring Edition Axle-Back Exhaust drone at highway speeds on the F3X 340i or 440i?

No. The Touring Edition is specifically built around AWE's 180 Technology® resonator, which cancels drone-prone frequencies at the source rather than muffling the exhaust overall. The result is a deeper, more aggressive B58 tone under throttle with a composed, drone-free cabin at highway cruise. The 180 Technology® resonators use no packing material, so the tone and drone characteristics do not degrade over time.

Is the AWE Performance Mid Pipe for the F3X 340i and 440i street legal?

No. The AWE Performance Mid Pipe for the F3X 340i and 440i is for racing use only. It is a non-resonated unit that replaces the factory resonated section with straight-through 3" T304L stainless steel tubing, and it is not approved for street use. The Touring Edition Axle-Back exhaust on its own is 50-state legal and designed for street use; the Performance Mid Pipe is a separate, racing-only addition. AWE has confirmed the mid-pipe is compatible with the optional M Performance Exhaust System.

What tip size and finish options are available for the AWE Touring Edition Axle-Back on the F3X 340i and 440i?

The AWE Touring Edition Axle-Back for the F3X 340i and 440i is available with 90mm or 102mm double-walled tips in chrome silver or diamond black. All tips include the AWE logo, double-walling for a mirror finish under hard use, and individual adjustability for depth into the bumper. This listing ships with chrome silver tips; diamond black is available as a separate configuration.

Description

AWE Tuning Touring Edition Axle-Back Exhaust w/ 102mm Diamond Black Tips for F3x BMW 340i / 440i

AWE 340i axle-back exhaust in Touring Edition form is designed, engineered, and manufactured entirely in-house at AWE, built from 2.5″ CNC mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel sourced in the U.S. The axle-back configuration is set up for street use, and a Performance Mid Pipe is available separately for track and racing applications. This listing ships with 102mm diamond black tips. AWE’s 180 Technology cancels drone-prone frequencies for a deeper, more aggressive B58 tone under throttle with a composed cabin at cruise, and the system delivers max gains of 9hp and 11ft-lb at the crank. AWE guarantees both fitment and no check engine lights, and the system is covered by AWE’s lifetime warranty.

Touring Edition Exhaust

The AWE Touring Edition axle-back replaces the factory rear section with a straight-through design and AWE’s 180 Technology resonators, keeping drone out of the cabin at cruise while opening up an aggressive B58 tone under throttle. It retains the factory mid-pipe for a straightforward install, finished here with 102mm diamond black tips.

What is 180 Technology?

Sound waves travel with the exhaust gases and reflect off the walls of the chambers as they move through the system. AWE’s acoustic engineers set the size and position of the ports and chambers to meet the specific sound targets for each vehicle, and those decisions control exactly when the reflected waves make their way back into the main exhaust flow. The timing of that return is what generates a sound wave running 180 degrees out of phase with the unwanted frequencies, cutting them out before they ever reach the tips.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
