AWE TUNING NON-RESONATED PERFORMANCE MID PIPES FOR F90 BMW M5 [3020-11024]
AWE Tuning Non-Resonated Performance Mid Pipes for F90 BMW M5
AWE F90 M5 performance mid pipes are available separately and feature a precision-engineered non-resonated 3″ X-pipe designed to pull more character and volume out of the S63 engine. Handcrafted from U.S.-sourced, CNC mandrel-bent T304L stainless steel, they replace the factory mid-section and pair with either the AWE catback or axleback exhaust configuration, giving you a straightforward way to take the sound and performance of the system a step further.
Performance Mid Pipes
- The non-resonated Performance Mid Pipes swap the restrictive factory mid-section for a straight-through 3″ X-pipe, increasing flow and unlocking a fuller, more exotic S63 tone. They are a modular upgrade within the AWE F90 M5 exhaust suite, compatible with the SwitchPath and Track Edition axleback systems as well as the factory axleback. Note that installation requires cutting the factory mid-section; this is not a bolt-on like the axleback or catback.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do the AWE F90 M5 performance mid pipes require cutting during installation? Yes. Installing the AWE Non-Resonated Performance Mid Pipes on the F90 M5 requires cutting the factory mid-section. This is confirmed across multiple AWE-authorized retailers and AWE’s own product documentation. It is not a bolt-on installation like the catback or axleback systems; the factory mid-section is removed and replaced with the AWE 3″ X-pipe. If you are not comfortable with exhaust cutting or do not have access to a shop that can handle it, factor that in before ordering.
- Do the AWE F90 M5 performance mid pipes work with both the SwitchPath and Track Edition exhaust? Yes. The AWE Non-Resonated Performance Mid Pipes are compatible with both the SwitchPath and Track Edition configurations, as well as the factory axleback. They replace the factory mid-section with a precision-engineered 3″ stainless steel X-pipe and are designed as a modular upgrade within the AWE F90 M5 exhaust suite. Adding them to an axleback setup is a straightforward path to stepping up toward full catback-level performance and sound without starting over.
- What do the AWE F90 M5 performance mid pipes actually do to the sound and performance? The Performance Mid Pipes replace the factory mid-section with a non-resonated, straight-through 3″ X-pipe, which increases flow and removes the restriction of the factory mid-section. On sound, pairing the Performance Mid Pipes with the factory axleback gives the S63 a more pronounced, exotic tone, noticeably fuller and more aggressive than the axleback alone. On performance, the combination of mid pipes and catback accounts for the full peak and maximum gain figures AWE publishes for the F90 M5 exhaust suite.
- Will the AWE F90 M5 performance mid pipes work with a mid-section from another brand? No. AWE exhausts are not designed to mate with front pipes or mid-sections from other manufacturers. The Performance Mid Pipes are engineered specifically to integrate with AWE’s own SwitchPath and Track Edition axleback systems, and fitment with non-AWE components is not guaranteed. For the correct setup, pair the AWE mid pipes with an AWE axleback or catback configuration.
