Akrapovic Evolution Exhaust System – Mercedes G63 AMG
Akrapovic Evolution Exhaust System – Mercedes G63 AMG
Even though they have been around for decades it’s not every day you see a G-Wagon, even more so an AMG version.
The G63 AMG has the same monstrous V8 twin turbo that you find in other AMG models, not just known for power, but the sound too.
Our customer wanted more from his G63, the sound of a friends Range Rover SVR was making the G-Wagon sound a little tame. After giving us a quick call the decision was made to fit the Akrapovic Evolution system to really unleash the AMG V8 sound. The added perk of shedding a huge 16kg of weight and arguably one of the nicest exhaust tips available from Akrapovic was a nice bonus too.
With the valve open, the exhaust note is exactly as you’d hope. A deep, powerful V8 sound. With the valve closed it’s perfectly civilised. The valve can be opened at any time by the push of a button to suit the situation.

Akrapovic Evolution Exhaust – BMW M2
Akrapovic Evolution Exhaust – BMW M2
When Akrapovic released their titanium system for the baby M car we knew it would be a hit. Enhancing the sound of the 3.0 straight six turbo is something any M2 enthusiast would be interested in, not to mention the stunning aesthetic improvement of the Carbon Diffuser and signature Akrapovic Carbon sleeved titanium tips.
Weight saving of over 5kg and a maximum power gain of 9.3bhp, its not just about the noise and looks. Akrapovic extensively test and develop every system to be the best it possibly can in terms of performance and weight saving. Every development car will spend days on the dyno to ensure you are purchasing a true performance upgrade for your car and not just a noisy replacement. Akrapovic systems fitment is often even better than that of the OEM system and the M2 Evolution system is no exception. For this reason we offer free fitting when you choose to purchase your M2 system with us.

Andrew got in touch with us regarding our stage 2 package to suit is R55 Clubman Cooper S. He was looking to make the best of the power available but to keep it reliable and conventional for every day use.
We set about fitting our stage 2 package, including the AEM intake, Akrapovic Sport Cat Downpipe and Wagner Intercooler. Andrew also opted for a Resonated Milltek Cat Back Exhaust system, providing a little more flow and a nicer exhaust note.
To make sure the car didn’t struggle to put down its new found power Andrew gave us the go ahead to fit a Helix Autosport Single Mass Flywheel and 6 Paddle Clutch Kit. This will ensure the car wont suffer from any clutch slip under hard acceleration.
Results of dyno testing show peak power of 240bhp and 288lb-ft of torque. A huge gain over stock.
Just to add the finishing touch we fitted a set of H&R 35mm lowering springs to close up the arch gap, add a little more stability in the corners and give the car a more aggressive looking stance.

Mini Cooper S JCW R56 (N18) – Manic Stage 2
Our customer brought his R56 JCW to us looking to increase the outright performance as much as possible, but without breaking the bank. The best solution was to opt for a minimal stage 2 package. As the JCW’s factory intake is sufficient for stage 2, all we needed to supply was an intercooler and downpipe upgrade. After being in touch with GFB, we secured a DV+ for the N18 that was previously listed for auto models only. We managed to fit the DV+ without issue and didn’t stray too far from the provided instructions.
Power Output:
Stock – 206bhp & 203lb-ft
Stage 2 – 253bhp & 278lb-ft
Hardware Used:
Scorpion Downpipe
Wagner Tuning Performance Intercooler
GFB DV+ (N18)
