What are the main benefits of an Akrapovic exhaust?
The main benefits of an Akrapovic exhaust lies in its ability to improve exhaust gas flow, resulting in increased horsepower and torque. This means your vehicle becomes more responsive and powerful. Akrapovic exhausts are renowned for their craftsmanship and premium materials, often crafted from high-quality stainless steel or titanium, that are not only durable but also lightweight, reducing the overall weight of your vehicle. This weight reduction contributes to improved handling and fuel efficiency, making it a smart choice for both performance-oriented drivers and those looking to save on fuel costs.
You’ll also enjoy a distinct, deep, resonant exhaust tone adding an auditory dimension to your driving experience, turning heads, and making a statement wherever you go.

Do Akrapovic exhausts add more power to your car?
Yes, installing an Akrapovic exhaust system can indeed add more power to your car. These exhaust systems are renowned for their ability to enhance your vehicle's performance. One of the primary ways they achieve this is by improving exhaust gas flow. By optimising the flow of exhaust gases out of the engine, back pressure, which can hamper performance, is reduced. This reduction in back pressure allows the engine to breathe more freely, resulting in increased horsepower and torque. Akrapovic exhausts use premium materials like stainless steel and titanium that are both durable and lightweight. By reducing the overall weight of the exhaust system, your car becomes lighter, which can lead to improved acceleration and better handling. This weight reduction is particularly beneficial for sports cars and high-performance vehicles where every pound matters. Their designs are often fine-tuned to extract maximum power while maintaining reliability and compliance with emissions standards so you can enjoy the added power without sacrificing engine longevity or environmental responsibility.
PLEASE BE AWARE: Sports cats can NOT legally be installed on a vehicle for use on a public road that was manufactured after 1st March 2001 unless type ECE 103R approved - this can be identified in either the product description and/or in the Technical Information section listed. If you have any doubt on this approval, please contact us immediately for confirmation. Fitting a De-Cat/Cat Bypass, DPF delete/bypass or GPF delete/bypass to a vehicle that is to be used on UK roads will cause the vehicle to fail the MOT emissions test, therefore rendering it unroadworthy and illegal to be used on the road. Therefore, any such products are strictly sold as off-road or motorsport use only and NOT for road use. The vehicle should be transported from place to place via a trailer, flatbed or other recovery means.
