Akrapovic Evolution w/Carbon Fiber Tips $5,000

Item Interest

Full Akrapovic Evolution Exhaust with Carbon Fiber tips $5000
I paid retail which was $5,990 + 7.75% (CA tax) = $6454.25 (I have receipt to prove price paid and install date)
Cash only
Pick up only
Bought & Installed on 1/25/12 at EAS
Has about 700 miles on it
Will be ready for pick up in San Diego on or before Tuesday 2/28/12
Reason for sale: I prefer the sound of the Eisenmann Sport and Challenge Sport xpipe combo. Even though the Akra Evo is lighter (50 LBS lighter b/c it is titanium) and produces more power (added 27 WHP to my car on dyno see link below) I recently had HG Motorsports in San Diego (Chris & Dieter are awesome) install the ESS VT2-600 supercharger kit (Roman is awesome) so the slight loss won't be felt, it's all about sound at that point. The exhaust is currently on the car and I'm more than willing to meet up with any locals so they may check it out also I'll be in LA on Monday to pick up my HRE wheels so I can meet up there as well. The link to the video below is right after installation of the Macht Schnell stage 2 intake and the Akra Evolution. My baseline after 3 pulls was 349 WHP and on the 3rd run after install the car was at 377 WHP. The system will cause the check engine/increased emissions light to come on and stay on unless you buy the delete R or do a tune. IMO it would be a waste of money for the delete R, i bought the Evolve tune days later and it made a huge difference and is super easy to use. I have a crappy old laptop and it took me 30mins all in. I have the ESS tune now for my supercharger and it is just as easy. If you buy a tune you can tune specifically for the Akra & delete the cold start (it's very loud in the morning if you don't).
Call me if you want the low down on the tune, it does make a huge difference. I'm not sure if you can get a discount on a tune from Evolve if you have a used ODB cable but I'll give the buyer mine for free.

so you decide to sell it?

K B Vettin · 02-19-2012, 12:35 AM

yes i did, i just don't dig the sound at high RPM's of a titanium exhaust. i'm more of a stainless steel guy. Once i get back from picking up my HRE wheels on Monday I'm going to do a very detailed write up on all the mods this last 4 weeks including pics, videos, and overall experience.

Looking forward to it. Can't see the video in Germany. Says it "contains music which GEMA has not granted music rights" lol

Bump anyway -

If you want to part out, I'm interested in X-pipe. =)

Nition · 02-19-2012, 02:21 PM

PM me if you decide to split, I want your X-pipe.

K B Vettin · 02-19-2012, 02:24 PM

i'd rather not part out but I have had a lot of members ask mufflers & xpipe separate. Let me do some research

tha_good_life · 02-19-2012, 06:26 PM

i would be interested in the slip on.
