Depending on the sound requirements of each vehicle, AWE acoustic engineers adjust the size and location of the ports and the chambers. By controlling the size and location of these key elements, we also control when the sound waves exit the chambers. The specific timing of when the reflected sound waves re-join the main exhaust flow creates a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree out-of-phase sound wave that cancels out problematic frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eConsistency through change.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAWE 180 Technology® is not on a “one size fits all” concept.
