The team behind the MINI is widely acknowledged as having done a great job bringing this iconic car up to date. The Evolution exhaust system made of high-quality stainless steel adds even more to the performance and fun to be had. This system consists of an optimised link pipe with a resonator and rear muffler. It improves performance, adds power and torque, and improves the responsiveness of the four-cylinder engine, especially in the rpm mid-range. The performance exhaust system has a sporty and aggressive tone, without any unwanted droning, that's in keeping with the character of the car it's designed for. Complete the look with a set of two exquisite 95 mm tailpipes in titanium or carbon fibre. Optional down pipe with sports catalytic converter for even greater power. EC type-approval is valid for engine type N18B16A and N14B16A.
Cars equipped with Akrapovic exhaust systems benefit from additional performance and increased responsiveness. Significant gains in power and torque are achieved throughout the entire rpm range. All Akrapovic exhaust system measurements are made on our computer-controlled chassis dynamometers.
