AWE 0FG Exhaust for 2021+ Ford Explorer Tremor | XPH

26th Aug 2026

Give your 2021+ Ford Explorer Tremor 3.0L EcoBoost a more aggressive exhaust character while improving exhaust flow and maintaining the rugged capability expected from the Tremor platform with the AWE Tuning 0FG Dual Rear Exit Cat-Back Exhaust with Bash Guard.

Engineered, handcrafted, and manufactured in the USA, this performance exhaust combines a dual 3-inch exhaust configuration, AWE's patented 180 Technology®, a precision-engineered X-pipe, straight-through resonators, and high-tuck BashGuard™ outlets. The result is an exhaust system designed to deliver stronger sound, improved flow, and additional protection when the Explorer Tremor leaves the pavement.

Performance-Oriented 3-Inch Exhaust Flow

The AWE 0FG uses a dual 3-inch cat-back configuration to provide a less restrictive path for exhaust gases exiting the 3.0L twin-turbocharged EcoBoost engine.

A precision-engineered X-pipe helps optimize exhaust flow between the two sides of the system while contributing to the clean, exotic character of the EcoBoost engine. The straight-through architecture is designed to balance efficient exhaust flow with the deeper, more aggressive sound expected from a performance-oriented Explorer Tremor.

AWE's dyno testing has demonstrated gains of up to +13 horsepower and +12 lb-ft of torque at the wheels, with actual results varying according to vehicle configuration and testing conditions.

Aggressive Sound Without Excessive Drone

The AWE 0FG is designed to give the Explorer Tremor a more pronounced exhaust presence without making the cabin unpleasant during everyday driving.

AWE's patented 180 Technology® uses strategically engineered exhaust chambers to manage sound waves and reduce unwanted cabin drone. This allows the system to maintain an aggressive exterior exhaust note while keeping long drives and daily use more refined.

The combination of the X-pipe, straight-through resonators, and 180 Technology® is designed to produce a distinctive EcoBoost tone while helping minimize excessive rasp and unwanted frequencies.

Built for the Tremor's Off-Road Capability

The Explorer Tremor is designed to venture beyond paved roads, and the AWE 0FG incorporates hardware specifically intended for that environment.

The system features dual high-tuck BashGuard™ outlets that position the exhaust exits higher underneath the vehicle to maximize ground clearance. This configuration helps reduce the risk of the exhaust outlets becoming a low-hanging point when navigating rough terrain.

Each BashGuard™ outlet incorporates a reinforced 0.125-inch stainless steel ring, providing additional protection against impacts during demanding off-road use.

T304L Stainless Steel Construction

The AWE 0FG is manufactured from U.S.-sourced T304L stainless steel using CNC mandrel-bending techniques. The tubing features a 0.065-inch wall thickness, providing a combination of durability, strength, and weight-conscious construction.

The system also incorporates internally lined stainless steel flex sections engineered to accommodate movement and repeated heat cycles while providing additional long-term durability.

Straight-through resonators use proprietary packing material designed to maintain consistent sound control without deteriorating under normal operating conditions.

Precision Fitment and Bolt-On Installation

The AWE 0FG is engineered as a direct bolt-on cat-back system, allowing installation without cutting or permanent modification to the Explorer Tremor.

Slip-fit inlet adapters provide compatibility with the factory downpipes while retaining an open 3-inch connection for compatible aftermarket components.

The system is designed around the vehicle's factory mounting locations and is engineered for precise fitment.

Designed for Street and Off-Road Use

The AWE 0FG is engineered to complement the dual-purpose character of the Ford Explorer Tremor. On the street, its 3-inch exhaust architecture and sound-control technology provide a more engaging driving experience with a deeper and more aggressive exhaust note.

When the road ends, the high-tuck BashGuard™ outlets provide additional ground clearance and protection compared with conventional rear-exit configurations.

This combination makes the system suitable for Tremor owners looking for performance, sound, durability, and off-road functionality in a single exhaust upgrade.

Fitment
