Before we installed the Akrapovic I had the chance to snap some detailed photos of the system:

mindlessmark07 · 01-08-2013, 06:40 PM

Damn Anthony! You make this stuff look SEXY!!!!!

RPiM5 · 01-08-2013, 07:24 PM

Man that Akropovic does look sexy as hell, but it's easy to see why it doesn't make much power. Lol!

Grayblack · 01-08-2013, 11:46 PM

This exhaust sounds so good. Can't wait to hear it in person.

ThisFlyGuy · 01-09-2013, 02:27 AM

Charlie Brown · 01-09-2013, 08:02 AM

That is one sharp looking and great sounding M5! I really like your choice of color and going with the stainless tips? Thanks for all the pics and video!

What size are those tips? How do you like the Akra sound on start-up and from inside he car?

I believe the claim is 10hp for the Akrapovic?
The main reason why it doesn't make "much power" is probably not visible in the photos...

Clue; It has to do with the number e24 that is on the muffler

Park2670 · 01-09-2013, 11:54 AM

What a great clean looking M5. Nice set of mods!

bclk55 · 01-09-2013, 12:41 PM

Nice. 100mm looks perfect. Can't wait to see her this sat.
