Akra Link Pipe NLA?

mcvaughan · 01-23-2021, 10:03 AM

I had a vendor tell me that Akra link pipe is no longer available? Has anyone heard this?

Hm, I'll be ordering the full evolution line exhaust soon and it is available with link pipe from multiple vendors. Are you looking to just buy it separately?

Was interested in the Evolution system but was told Akrapovič has discontinued the link pipe due to emissions.

I see they are just special order/perhaps on back order. Glad I ordered mine in December.

A lot of people are looking at the EL mid pipe though, that could be a good alternative. I personally just wanted Akra because it's full titanium aside from their DPs which are SS.

I hate this forum, costs me way too much money...lol. Just ordered Akra-Evo system as I'm scared no more link pipes will be available. I got the last one from this specific vendor.

To avoid the potential hassle in the future I ordered the MPE.

Correcting myself as I found out the following. They are still in production and being made, with the EPA becoming more strict on emissions Turn14 the main official US distributor is no longer selling them. So whatever is out in the wild at any vendor is what is left. Alternatively you can buy from international sites.

Good job. You scared me into dropping 2500 dollars today. It was going to happen eventually I guess.
