Up to 10% off on Akrapovic exhaust systems!
An exhaust system looks simple at first glance. But a closer look shows that it is a complex system that has a significant effect on the performance of a racing or a regular sports car.
Akrapovic:
"The experience in racing that we acquired over many years, taught us how to combine high performance, a long-life cycle and the lightest possible weight. Our numerous world championship titles and countless international and national titles are a testament to our continuous ability to fulfil our clients’ highest expectations."
We carry titanium and stainless steel systems for Audi, BMW, Corvette, MINI, Porsche, Nissan and VW!
If you want the true sound of power, please contact us for details and pricing.
We are offering 5% off on slip ons and 10% off on evolution systems. Call us today!

Forgive me for asking what may be a stupid question but what is a slip-on exhaust? I've heard of that for motorcycles but never for cars.

A slip on would be considered a cat-back.

They're branching out. They've made exhaust for BMW M cars and Porsches for a while now.
