AWE has merged over two decades in supercar performance products with rigorous study of the peerless engineering behind the McLaren MP4-12C to create one of the finest exhaust systems available, for one of the finest vehicles available.The AWE MP4-12C Performance Catalysts are aggressive, unbridled and unique. Verified to fit both the 12C Coupe and the 12C Spider, the AWE MP4-12C Performance Catalysts are the first in the world to feature a 200 cell hi-flow catalyst solution. Due to its dimensions, standard 300 cell HJS catalysts would have been far easier to fit into the McLaren. However, there was no HD (High Durability) spec 300 cell HJS catalyst, and the close engine placement and power output that these catalysts are subject to in the MP4-12C, in our analysis, mandated better. The 200 cell HJS HD catalyst, while significantly more complex to integrate, afforded not only the durability we desired, but the added benefit of significant increased flow over a 300 cell count. In summary, we chose to not settle, because the MP4-12C deserves it.AWE precision engineering and fixture development permits the factory heat shields to re-attach completely intact, with no deformation or subpar installation results. Further, our integration of proper articulating stainless steel fully lined flex joints provide proper torsional relief between the engine and the fixed muffler mounting points. Besides factory correct fitment and long term durability, all this engineering adds up to an impressive +46hp and +61tq, as measured on the AWE in-house Mustang chassis dyno.Please note, the AWE Performance Catalysts are for racing use only.

THE BASICS

AWE wants you happy - let's work together to get any issues resolved! Please note these key points before proceeding with any claim:
  • Start at the original place of purchase. 100% of claims start with the original place of purchase, and all refunds, if granted, are through the original place of purchase. Call them first. Need their contact information? Try the AWE dealer map.
  • If you remove, we can not approve. If a product issue is discovered after installation, do not remove the product before receiving confirmation of a return approval from the original place of purchase. On-car information can often lead to diagnosis and action plans; AWE requires a chance to address in this manner. Post-install products removed prior to return authorization will be denied any warranty claim.
  • Any alterations or attempts to fix will void the warranty. This includes welding, bending, or any ad-hoc methods that alter the product in any way.
  • All warranties are for the original owner only. Second owners can purchase replacement components at a discount, directly from AWE or from participating dealers.
  • If you are a dealer or bought through AWE directly, fill out the form.
  • Orders or parts of orders canceled more than seven (7) calendar days after placement will be assessed a 20% raw-materials allocation fee. AWE recommends that dealers request down payments from consumers given the handcrafted nature of many AWE products.

In the event that a warranty claim is approved by AWE on a product that has been discontinued, AWE will repair the product if it is deemed repairable. At AWE's sole discretion and if applicable, a substitution of a comparable product may be granted should a repair not be deemed possible.
