AWE Tuning Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT Track Edition Exhaust - Diamond Black Tips

Rowdy American-Made Cat-Back That Adds Real Power to Your 6.4L or 6.2L

The AWE Tuning Track Edition cat-back exhaust for the 2012-2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT and SRT8 is a full 3-inch T304L stainless system built to extract torque and volume from the 6.4L HEMI and 6.2L supercharged Trackhawk engine. Part number 3020-33051 eliminates the factory mufflers and replaces them with mandrel-bent CNC-formed tubing finished with dual 5-inch slash-cut Diamond Black powder-coated tips. The result is 12 lb-ft of additional torque and 3 horsepower at the wheels, verified on AWE's in-house dyno, with a deep aggressive exhaust note that opens up hard under load and settles to a controlled rumble at cruise.

Track Edition Sound Philosophy

The Track Edition intentionally omits AWE's 180 Technology resonators. Where the Touring Edition uses resonator chambers to tame mid-range frequencies, the Track Edition leaves straight sections in their place. The difference is audible immediately stronger rasp through the mid-range, louder interior note under acceleration, and a rawer tone overall. If you spend time at the track or simply want the most aggressive sound the platform allows without a custom fabrication, 3020-33051 is the correct choice. It is not a drone-heavy system; the .065-inch wall thickness and H-pipe crossover manage resonance without killing the character.

Construction and Materials

Every component is T304L stainless steel with a .065-inch nominal wall. AWE forms each bend on a CNC mandrel machine, which preserves the full interior diameter through every curve and eliminates the flow restrictions caused by crush-bent tubing. The integrated H-pipe crossover is built into the mid-section rather than added as a separate unit, keeping the package tighter and the exhaust velocity balanced across both banks. All hardware, clamps, and hangers are included. No cutting, drilling, or welding is required for installation on 2012-2021 Grand Cherokee SRT, SRT8, and Trackhawk applications.

Diamond Black Tip Detail

The 5-inch slash-cut tips are double-walled and finished in Diamond Black powder coat. The double-wall construction prevents the outer surface from discoloring at exhaust temperatures. The powder coat is matched to the Grand Cherokee SRT's blacked-out trim packages and holds up against road grit, car-wash chemicals, and heat cycling. AWE covers the tip finish with a one-year warranty separate from the lifetime warranty on the stainless components.

Dyno-Verified Power Gains

AWE publishes dyno sheets showing 12 lb-ft of torque and 3 horsepower gained at the wheels on a bone-stock 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 6.4L. These are wheel numbers on a Mustang dyno, not crank estimates. Gains are concentrated in the mid-range where the 6.4L HEMI produces its strongest pull, between 3,000 and 5,500 RPM. The Trackhawk's 6.2L supercharged engine responds similarly, with the supercharger's positive displacement characteristics amplifying the benefit of the reduced backpressure.

AWE No CEL Guarantee

AWE Tuning guarantees that this cat-back system will not trigger a check engine light on any compatible Grand Cherokee SRT or Trackhawk. The system retains all factory oxygen sensors in their stock locations and does not alter emissions equipment. It is a cat-back design — the catalytic converters remain untouched. If a CEL appears after installation on a properly maintained vehicle, AWE backs the guarantee with direct technical support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the AWE Track Edition exhaust fit the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk?

Yes. Part 3020-33051 is confirmed to fit the 2018-2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk with the 6.2L supercharged V8. The system is a direct bolt-on with no modifications needed. AWE validates fitment on the Trackhawk separately from the SRT due to slight differences in the undercarriage layout.

What is the difference between the AWE Track Edition and Touring Edition for the Grand Cherokee SRT?

The primary difference is AWE's 180 Technology resonators. The Touring Edition includes them for a refined, drone-free tone at highway speeds. The Track Edition (3020-33051) uses straight pipe sections in place of the resonators, producing a louder, more aggressive mid-range character and more interior sound under hard acceleration. Both use the same 3-inch T304L stainless tubing and Diamond Black or polished tip options.

Will this exhaust cause a check engine light on my Grand Cherokee SRT?

No. AWE Tuning backs 3020-33051 with their No CEL guarantee. The system is a cat-back design that retains all factory catalytic converters and oxygen sensors in stock positions. AWE guarantees no check engine light on a properly maintained vehicle or they will support you directly to resolve it.

How much power does the AWE Track Edition add to the 6.4L HEMI?

AWE's published dyno data shows a gain of 12 lb-ft of torque and 3 horsepower at the wheels on a stock 2014 Grand Cherokee SRT. These are wheel figures on a Mustang dyno. Gains are strongest in the 3,000-5,500 RPM band. Results on modified vehicles or the Trackhawk's 6.2L will vary depending on existing modifications.

Is the AWE Grand Cherokee SRT exhaust made in the USA?

Yes. AWE Tuning manufactures this exhaust in the USA using T304L stainless steel with CNC mandrel bending. AWE's facility is in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

What warranty comes with the AWE Track Edition cat-back?

AWE Tuning covers 3020-33051 with a lifetime warranty on all stainless steel components. The Diamond Black tip finish carries a separate one-year warranty. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, installing this exhaust cannot void your vehicle's factory powertrain warranty solely because of the modification a dealer must prove the exhaust caused a specific failure to deny a related claim.

Does the AWE Track Edition drone on the highway in a Grand Cherokee SRT?

The Track Edition is louder than stock and more present inside the cabin than the Touring Edition, but the integrated H-pipe crossover and .065-inch wall thickness manage resonance. At steady highway cruises between 65-75 mph, most owners report a controlled hum rather than an intrusive drone. Under acceleration or at wide-open throttle the system is intentionally loud that is the design intent of the Track Edition.

Do I need to tune my Grand Cherokee SRT after installing this exhaust?

No tune is required for the cat-back exhaust on the 6.4L SRT or 6.2L Trackhawk. The system retains the factory oxygen sensors, so the ECU continues to run closed-loop fueling normally. A tune is not required to realize the torque and power gains they come from reduced backpressure, not fueling changes. However, if you plan to combine this exhaust with other intake or supercharger modifications, a tune is recommended to maximize the combined benefit.

Can I install the AWE Track Edition exhaust myself, or do I need a shop?

Most owners with basic hand tools and a lift or jack stands complete the installation in 2-3 hours. The system uses factory hanger locations and includes all necessary clamps and hardware. No cutting or welding is required. A heated penetrating oil applied to factory exhaust bolts 24 hours before the job is strongly recommended on vehicles with more than 3-4 years of use, as the rear section bolts can seize on steel subframes.

Installation Overview

Installation requires removal of the factory cat-back section from behind the catalytic converters rearward. The AWE system attaches at the same factory connection points using the included clamps. Slide the mid-section into position, hang it on the factory rubber hangers, and connect the rear tips section. Snug all clamps by hand before torquing to spec to allow alignment adjustment. No cutting, welding, or drilling is required. Allow the system to heat-cycle once before performing a final clamp torque check. Full step-by-step instructions are included in the box. Professional installation is recommended if you are not comfortable working under a lifted vehicle.
