M8 comp with Akrapovic
So first off a big shout out and thank you to Ben r33_RGSport for working through these tough times and making it happen. I have had a performance exhaust on the last three ///M coupes I have owned and I decided to pull the trigger a few months ago and place a deposit. Well it arrived safe and sound and got installed. All I can say is wow it really finishes the car and makes the emphasis of sport over luxury/GT. Literally transforms the car and makes a bigger separation between M850i and M8. No I dont have a sound clip uploaded yet but Akrapovic does. Here is the sneak peak.

Hahahaha, teasing of course. I heard the one from Akra but I'd prefer to hear yours sampled on your phone or something. r33_RGSport didn't you do a before and after, Ben? |

Without any sound I'm guessing the fancy Akrapovic branded carbon fiber exhaust tips. Not sure if the M8C with the full carbon fiber package comes with carbon fiber exhaust tips but at least the Akrapovic are pretty.
Unfortunately, they don't make anything for the M850i (but oddly cover the M240i plus a bunch of the 3-series) so I'm still holding my breath. However, any additional sound produced is never going to make it to my ears within the cabin given the glorious B&W soundscape at 50% plus will drown it out of existence. |

Sorry if this is redundant, but I ordered mine and was notified if I have OPF I can't fit the full exhaust? Did you have any issues with this and how do we know if we have OPF lol |

Yeah I ordered the one without it. It was just noted by my shop that it might be an issue since they didn't see this OPF thing before. Thank you, can't wait to get mine installed in a week or 2 |

If anyone is looking for a 2nd hand Akrapovic system, a friend of mine was looking to sell his from his M8 - it's already been removed.
It's in the UK, so there would of course be shipping costs, but there will be a saving from new of course. M |
