Akrapovic booth pictures

I was at a Performance Race industry convention and snapped a few pics of Akrapovics booth, The guys where nice and their Titanium exhaust are sexy, I thought some might enjoy.











Random pic of a Underground racing Lambo, runs a 9.x at 16x mph.

There's an exhaust in this photo set? All I see is an engine and the associated car!

J/K, the exhaust is really nice too, but I seriously have trouble seeing it with the other eye candy in the way.

Akrapovic makes some great systems. They're quite popular in the Supersport motorcycle world and I have dozens of buddies with their pipes.

Glad that someone noticed the display, and is familiar with the caliber of these exhaut systems!
We were contacted by Akrapovic to use our GT3 for the display. That was my first exposure to their systems. http://dilysiracing.com/blog/

I can now tell you from many converstaions about their technology, design, and manufacturuing process that they are absolutely top of the line. Yes they are expensive, but they have no equal.

The weight difference in the M3 Oem vs Titanium display [picture posted] is nuts! Almost 53 pounds! Plus you pick up 22 HP and 35 ft. Lbs of torque!

They also make an application for the M6. As well as the Z06, Nissan GTR, and of course Porsche.

We are discussing becoming a dealer/installer for them, so if you have interest I will get you some more info, and pricing
