I love Akrapovic. They make Duc's & Aprilia's sound like pure sex. Too bad I just bought my Tomei Ti exhaust, I'd be very tempted to buy this pending price. I'm sure it will be crazy expensive tho.

Yeah because I had the akropovic slip on, on my GSXR 750, and it was expensive. Sounded great though. I had to put the Jardine back on my bike though, cause it looks and sound better.

That would be great, but I'm pretty confident that the Akra system for the Evo X will be SIGNIFICANTLY more than that. Akrapovich is up there with Powerhouse Amuse when it comes to quality, and you can expect similar pricing.

I'll keep you guys updated, as we deal with them quite a bit for R35 GT-R customers.

Been interested in this since the first post and following eagerly for any updates on their website. Well they finally have an Evo page, hopefully details soon:

And for those with Windows 7, here's a treat, an official Akrapovic theme pack:

Found a vid of an Akrapovic exhaust on a Golf GTI (2.0L turbo, I think)

Not bad, I guess.. but yeah, no where near as nice as the larger engined cars. In-cabin seems pretty nice, but outside of the car, the exhaust note seems a little tame and is kinda hard to hear over the tire and wind noise at times.

The full Akrapovic exhaust on the E92 M3 is around $6k. I'd expect the Evo X one to be at least $3.5k.

they are an unreal good products , but with a simply unreal price. EVen for the bike i thought just cost way to much. I can imagine the price for the car. Basically i think it will be a High End JDM price range.

They are nice if you are looking for the extreme weight saving ( titanium for bike )
But not worth imo for what it cost on a car.

wayyyyy to quite on all those other cars, the porsche sounded the best but it still seem to lack a ruffness that you want when buying an exhaust in the first place.
