If you're weighing in at under a 100kgs lighter, consider that gift..

Just check and make sure a turbo is not missing or something.. :

The 1650kg figure is because of the EU standard. A figure of 75kg is added onto the DIN weight to account for a passenger and some luggage. This additional weight of 75kg is not from the vehicle itself.
GreatWhiteM2 weighed his EU spec M2C DCT with 437M wheels, blue brakes and electric seats and it was 1615kg (full tank).

They probably spent 75 million Euro to decide on the weight of 75kg.

Talked to Akrapovic today. I will get the official report of the weighing tomorrow and then I will 100% confirm it.

Also I just released my story about the exhaust process. You will find it here: https://drivetribe.com/p/akrapovic-e...TRyQV9vn1ow_EA Additionally, I can share that a second update is coming quite quickly including a dyno video, more performance details and graphs.



For those interested in the new titanium exhaust system, the new Akrapovic slip-on system for the M2C will be on display at the two-yearly Tuning Day held on the 30th of November at the Akrapovic dealer Beek Auto Racing in the Hague, the Netherlands. I am on site and will happily take you out in my M2 Competition so that you can hear the prototype system fitted to my car.

I haven't got a clue how it sounds. I am collecting my car tomorrow and then taking it on a road trip across Europe.

The sound track discussion is one I will share with you guys when I have content to go with it. At this moment, I got this information for now and the rest follows quite soon.

Tomorrow is a day of flights, meetings and a drive to Italy where more meetings await me.

I am in Zandvoort (Netherlands) on the 23-24th of November. Any chance we can meet on the 22nd or 25th anywhere in Netherlands or nearby? I am really interested in the exhaust but would want to hear it in person before ordering it.

Slip-on is axle back or back box. Whatever we call it.

is there any reason, why Akrapovic still keeps the mid-muffler?
They could keep the stock OPF filters and change mid and rear muffler?

It's explained in the blog, for now only slip on, later mid pipe and at the end the downpipes.
I suppose they need time to develop all the components.
