The Akrapovic BMW M3/M4 Aftermarket Exhaust Is Here: But Do You Like The Noise?

When we drove the new BMW M3 recently, we were blown away by the car’s dynamics, looks and exhaust note. Not convinced with the latter, however, aftermarket exhaust manufacturer Akrapovic has now unveiled its slip-on system for the F80 & F82 BMW M3/M4 models.

The exhaust system is made from titanium and features bigger pipes than stock, resulting in lower back pressure and more power (an increase of around 5bhp). The material also weighs less than standard and you can spec carbonfibre tailpipes and a carbonfibre rear diffuser to enhance the system’s look.

Importantly, it has a ‘sporty’ sounding note, with Akrapovic specifically highlighting lower frequencies. We want to know what you think, though. Listen to the Akrapovic video at the top, then watch our video (above) of an M4 with a stock exhaust. Does the system enhance the sound, or do you prefer it standard?
