Akrapovic Slip-On Exhaust System

With a distinctive sound when shifting through the gears, coupled with increased performance and torque, all encapsulated in a full titanium system, the Slip-On Line (Titanium) offers the Akrapovič experience while still meeting ECE type approval. Constructed from lightweight, high-quality titanium alloys and finished with two sets of carbon fibre/titanium tailpipes, the system features complex parts crafted in the in-house titanium foundry, including the valve housings and the collector from the centre muffler to the tailpipes. Two valves – one on each side of the muffler – adjust the gas flow to produce the distinctive Akrapovič sound, which is significantly different from that of the X5M with a stock system. The exhaust tone is most noticeable when shifting gears and accelerating, and this can be further controlled by adding the optional Akrapovič Sound Kit to offer enhanced listening pleasure. Akrapovič has achieved a performance gain of 12.1 hp at 2,400 rpm and a torque increase of 35.4 Nm at 2,400 rpm when tested comparatively on the Akrapovič dyno with a BMW X5M equipped with a stock M Sport exhaust system. There is also the possibility for further exhaust tuning through the addition of the optional Evolution Link pipe set (Titanium); using the link pipe set alters the gas flow and delivers the best possible sound from the Slip-On Line (Titanium). As a further enhancement, Akrapovič has created optional parts to alter the vehicle’s aesthetics and complement the beautiful finish of the system’s tailpipes. With a hand-crafted carbon fibre diffuser, the visual experience can be further enhanced. To install the Slip-On system, the stock exhaust system must be cut. Please read the instructions carefully before starting installation.
