The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is a 707-horsepower paradox. It is a full-sized SUV with the heart of a Hellcat and the grip of a fighter jet. It is the ultimate sleeper. But from the factory, the Trackhawk is too quiet. The 6.2L Supercharged HEMI V8 is muffled, hidden behind layers of sound deadening and restrictive piping.
To unleash the monster, you need the right exhaust. But the Trackhawk is different from a Charger or a Challenger. Because it is a heavy, AWD SUV, it suffers from unique resonance issues. The wrong system will create a deafening cabin drone that ruins the daily driving experience.
You need power. You need sound. You need precision. Here is how you select the best exhaust for your Trackhawk.
Push Performance: The AWD Resonance Challenge
Selecting an exhaust for an AWD platform requires an understanding of cabin volume. The Grand Cherokee has a large, open interior that acts like a megaphone for low-frequency sound waves. While a straight-pipe setup might sound great on a cold start, it will create a punishing "boom" at highway cruising speeds.
A high-performance exhaust must eliminate this resonance without sacrificing the aggressive V8 scream. You want an exotic note outside and a refined experience inside.
Build Authority: AWE Touring Edition
The AWE Touring Edition is the benchmark for the Trackhawk platform. It is engineered specifically to handle the large cabin volume of the Grand Cherokee while delivering a deep, sophisticated muscle car tone.
Select Precision Engineering
AWE utilizes their patented 180 Technology®. This isn't a traditional muffler; it’s a sound-cancellation resonator. As exhaust gases pass through ports into reflection chambers, sound waves bounce off the walls and cancel out specific frequencies that cause drone.
- Zero Drone: Engineered to kill resonance at cruising RPMs.
- Deep Tone: Provides a rich, low-end growl that sounds like pure American power.
- Direct Bolt-On: 3-inch T304L stainless steel construction ensures a perfect fit.
When you install an AWE Touring System, you aren't just making it louder. You are making it better. It maintains the sleeper status at idle but demands respect the moment you bury the throttle.
Shop Power: Corsa Performance Xtreme
If you want a sharper, more exotic sound, Corsa Performance is the undisputed king. Corsa is famous for their RSC® (Reflective Sound Cancellation) technology, which has been the gold standard in the Modern Muscle world for decades.
Demand the Exotic Scream
While AWE focuses on a deep muscle tone, Corsa delivers a high-pitched, crisp, and aggressive note. It sounds like a supercar. Under wide-open throttle, the Corsa Xtreme is violent. At a steady cruise, it is silent.
- RSC Technology: Eliminates the specific frequencies that cause cabin boom.
- High-Flow Design: Maximizes the output of the 6.2L Supercharged V8.
- No Maintenance: T304 stainless steel that won't rust or degrade.
Corsa systems are for the owner who wants their Trackhawk to sound as fast as it actually is. It turns the AWD monster into a high-frequency acoustic weapon.
Select Your Sound: AWE vs. Corsa
Choosing between these two comes down to your personal brand of performance.
- Select AWE Touring if: You want a deep, bassy, classic muscle car rumble. You use your Trackhawk for road trips and want the most comfortable cabin experience possible.
- Select Corsa Xtreme if: You want an aggressive, exotic, "in-your-face" sound. You want people to know exactly what is under the hood before they even see the badges.
Both systems provide a massive upgrade over the stock restrictive piping. Both systems ensure that your 707-horsepower SUV sounds like a world-beater.
Build the Foundation: Headers and Mid-Pipes
If you want to push the Trackhawk to its absolute limit, the cat-back exhaust is only half the story. To truly unlock the Hellcat engine, you need to address the front of the system.
Shop American Racing Headers
For those chasing maximum horsepower and the most aggressive sound profile, American Racing Headers (ARH) is the only choice. Made in the USA from heavy-duty stainless steel, these headers allow the supercharger to breathe.
- Primary Power: Mandrel-bent primaries reduce backpressure.
- Integrated Scavenging: Optimizes exhaust flow for massive torque gains.
- Rugged Build: Built to withstand the extreme heat of a modified 6.2L HEMI.
Pairing ARH Long Tubes with a Corsa or AWE cat-back creates a full-system symphony that is unmatched on the street.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will an aftermarket exhaust cause a drone in my Trackhawk? Only if you choose the wrong one. Cheaper, non-engineered systems will drone. Systems from AWE (180 Technology) and Corsa (RSC Technology) are specifically designed to eliminate drone in the Grand Cherokee's large cabin.
Do I need a tune after installing a cat-back exhaust? No. A cat-back exhaust does not require a retune. However, if you upgrade to long-tube headers, a tune is highly recommended to maximize power and prevent check engine lights.
How loud is the cold start? Both Corsa and AWE will significantly increase the volume of your cold start. It is the nature of a high-performance V8. If you have sensitive neighbors, the AWE Touring is slightly more restrained at idle than the Corsa Xtreme.
Is it a direct fit? Yes. The systems we sell at DTX Performance are designed for the WK2 Trackhawk platform. They utilize factory mounting points for a frictionless installation.
