The MPE is a slip-on/axle-back system but so is the Akrapovic by default. They do offer optional link pipes and cat-less down pipes (not road legal) though but that will be 3x the cost of the MPE.

The Akrapovic system will be great, especially if you are going downpipes back! That must free up a lot of power if done in conjunction with a remap, will sound awesome as well! |

4 years after you buy a brand new car and then every 2 years.

Either you will bump into an old man who does not give a flying fuck if the chipped TDI Passat gives you cancer by standing behind it or a grumpy fat man who is so jealous of your BMW with expensive Akrapovič pipes and Bilstein coilovers that he will make sure to ruin your day.

Haha! Akrapovic is sold through BMW dealerships in Sweden, they are the only ones in Sweden licensed to sell them so I don't feel that worried about warranties and such either.

If that's the way they calculated the 26hp value, then the claim is flawed if it turns out that the dynoed M2 already showed more than 370hp stock.

Not recommended from an insurance point of view, though. And BMW may dislike it.

Litchfield Cars are the No1 GTR and M car tuning place in the UK.
They claim that an M4 with Akrapovic evolution system makes an extra 10bhp @ 5200 rpm over the standard setup without remapping, plus the increased throttle response etc. Info here: http://www.litchfieldimports.co.uk/s...qnzuX1p&uplqec Interestingly they claim that the M4 slip on exhaust (rear silcer and backbox) makes an extra 7bhp @ 4400 rpm http://www.litchfieldimports.co.uk/s...fFytAHp&uplqec I may well be getting these guys to tune my M2 when it arrives Last edited by weyland; 03-10-2016 at 06:02 AM.. Reason: info on slip on exhaust added |
