Akrapovic exhaust system for the BMW X5M (F95) and BMW X6M (F96)
Akrapoviс’s latest aftermarket product for the BMW is a brand-new Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system for the BMW X5 M / X5 M Competition (F95) and BMW X6 M / X6 M Competition (F96).
This full titanium system is the latest in a line of
aftermarket exhaust systems that Akrapoviс has developed and produced for
previous generations of the BMW X5 M and X6 M, with the newest version
featuring complex parts cast in Akrapoviс’s in-house titanium foundry. These
are the housing of the exhaust valves and collectors on each side of the
muffler, which have been designed with meticulous detail and then cast by the Akrapoviс’s
skilled foundrymen.
The new Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system has two sets
of twin carbon-fibre / titanium tailpipes exiting from either side of the rear
of the car. The system features two valves – one on each side of the muffler –
to tailor the gas flow and assist in producing a deep and sporty tone. The use
of innovative, lightweight material – which has been insulated on exposed parts
for perfect durability – has produced a system that is 8.4 kg lighter than the
stock M Sport exhaust system, amounting to an incredible weight savings of
40.7%.
Performance and sound are two assets of an Akrapoviс
exhaust, and the new Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system for the BMW X5 M /
X5 M Competition (F95) and BMW X6 M / X6 M Competition (F96) delivers on both
counts. Power gains of 8.9 kW (12.1 hp) at 2,400 rpm and torque increases of
35.4 Nm at 2,400 rpm have been recorded with the Slip-On Line (Titanium)
exhaust–equipped BMW X6 M Competition on the Akrapoviс dyno against a BMW X6 M
Competition with a stock M Sport exhaust. The sound emitted from the exhaust
enhances the sportiness of the two cars, making it distinctly different from
the stock system. The use of the exhaust valves creates an exhaust tone that is
audibly different and is clearly heard by all as the car moves through the
gears and accelerates.
The Akrapoviс Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system for the
BMW X5 M / X5 M Competition (F95) and BMW X6 M / X6 M Competition (F96) is a
simple plug-and-play installation, with no need for remapping. It meets all the
current required EC/ECE type approval standards. To further enhance the way the
Akrapoviс exhaust complements the rear of the car, an optional handmade
carbon-fibre diffuser in either gloss or matte can be added.
