    Default Exhaust - The best on the market?



    For more information click here Akrapovic Products

    Wasn't sure on the thread title but that will do for the moment. I'm just browsing exhaust systems for my motorcycle and accidentally came across the information below

    Can I point out that the products mentioned ARE NOT aimed at MPS owners sorry, but interesting nevertheless. Calling on Audi, BMW, VW, Nissan and a few other owners on this one, but any or all opinions wanted as well as this thread branching out to the BEST system for the MPS what is the high end stuff side of exhaust available and how much power (+) and weight (-) can you expect from the top shelf stuff?

    Mmmmm, titanium exhausts. If you have to ask how much they are, you can't afford them though

    As for those vids, noise-wise I'm torn between the M3 (first vid) and the GT3/RS

    Incredible sound

    They're pretty good hey! Some decent stuff and it seems quite popular especially over in Europe. GTI's sound pretty good stock anyway compared to the MPS. I'm thinking to maybe get carbon Akro for the CBR-RR. The BMW sounds stunning!!

    The thing I love about these is they look stock. And they sound how a sports car should from factory. Not like a big milo tin on the back but a specific note that has such an amazing appeal, for me anyway! How awesome do the exit tips look on the Mini?!



    I better put this up before all the ozMPSclub Ferrari owners complain there was no clips for them to get an idea for their ride



    This actually sounds better than the BMW above Dan...I didn't think I could beat a car for sound until I found this

    The Carbon Fibre Akro system I had on the Zed was excellent. That is all.

    It's hard to believe the Audi and the Ferrari are both V8s. Such a different noise from both of them. Yet equally evocative.

    Nice one

    i dont like how much noise the ferrari made at (effectively) idle... but that's just me other than that,
    the audi sounded like it was getting cut short ~1000rpm to soon...

    Holy. Crap.

    Agreed, the Audi S5 almost made me have a serious undie accident.

    No car should be able to make a sound that awesome.

    Although you wouldn't really see it, but this would look sweet on the MPS if my exit pipe extended just a touch. Paint the Chrome tips black and have the exit pipe as such

    OMG ROGWICK. YES that would look ffffffffffing sweeet.. I should try get Cypher Industries to make me up one like that. It would actually look so good. You just gave me the biggest idea ever .
    btw have a look at Meisterschaft exhausts: meisterschaft exhaust - YouTube

    Way to copy me!! hahaha! I also got thinking of a TMIC (cause you won't see this on a FMIC) painted black with an "MPS" print across it. Might look alright.

    Well my idea was to keep the FMIC chrome and have MPS across it in black or red like the HDi FMIC's :P
