Akrapovic Evolution Mini Cooper Exhaust

2007 and newer Mini Cooper S and Mini Cooper JCW Stainless Steel Akrapovic Evo Exhaust System

The Mini is considered a car that always brings a smile to ones face with its playful look and particularly its position on the road, which is reminiscent of driving a go-kart. The engineers from Akrapovic prepared solutions for the little devil that further increase the performance of the Mini Cooper S and the Cooper S Cabrio as well make it sound even more appealing. Just by looking at the rear, we can see that it’s an Akrapovic – namely, the rear boasts a dual exhaust system outlet of a larger diameter, shaped like racing exhausts. The homologated stainless steel aftermarket Evolution exhaust system with an integrated resonator and end muffler is equipped with adjustable tail pipes made of titanium or carbon fiber. The most demanding customers can also upgrade the Evolution exhaust system by using a down pipe with catalyst.

The MINI John Cooper Works is the icing on the cake of the new-generation Mini. Already the ultimate in performance and fun, this Mini will be even more enjoyable to drive along winding roads when it’s fitted with an Akrapovic aftermarket exhaust system crafted from the finest stainless steel. This street-legal exhaust system consists of an optimized link pipe, a built-in resonator, and a rear muffler. The customer can choose from two sets of tail pipes, made from either prestigious titanium or the sportier carbon fiber. Even from a distance it’s easy to see that this John Cooper Works has an Akrapovic exhaust system, thanks to the 95-mm increase in diameter. Up close, the tail pipes are a work of art—they mirror our attention to the smallest of details. Akrapovic engineers have also dedicated their attention to the sound aspect of the JCW; the result of their work is the recognizable Akrapovic sound, in which no unwanted droning can be heard. The beat of these tail pipes will further inspire you to drive dynamically.

The Akrapovic exhaust system improves sound characteristic, reduces drone and vibrations and makes driving even more enjoyable. The Evolution system, with the optional down pipe, greatly improves the motor’s performance at all revolutions, which is evident from the enclosed diagram. The system offers an additional 8 HP and 7 Nm. Additionally, improvements to weight are not negligible, since the Akrapovic exhaust system, made of stainless steel, together with the optional down pipe, weights 4 kilograms less than a stock exhaust system.
