Description
Akrapovic exhaust system, BMW M135i (F40) 2020-2023
Beautifully crafted from high-grade titanium, this lightweight exhaust system is finished with eye-catching carbon-fibre tailpipes and is a full-on sensory delight. The exhaust valve, with its housing cast in the in-house foundry, gives the exhaust a rich sound with an emphasis on high frequencies, especially when shifting through the gears, all allied to a deep tone that enhances the car’s engine without any discomfort or drone for the occupants.
A specially engineered Y-split reduces the flow noise without any compromise to the pressure pulse distribution, thus offering a strong sound and optimal flow path. The use of lightweight materials and a different configuration reduces the overall weight of the exhaust by 9.4 kg, a saving of 55.6% on the stock version. The design and construction of the exhaust optimize the power and torque levels throughout the rev range, this was achieved during in-house tests with back-to-back runs on the Akrapovič dyno against a standard stock exhaust. For a further upgrade of the Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system, an optional Evolution Link pipe set (SS) is available.The ECE type-approval certificate is valid only for 2020 model year cars equipped with an Otto/gasoline particulate filter. The exhaust system can be fitted on the BMW M135i XDrive model.
