Akrapovic Evolution Titanium Exhaust for Nissan GT-R
Akrapovic have now completed their highly anticipated titanium Evolution exhaust for the Nissan GT-R. This exhaust encompasses the full system from the front / Y pipes back and deletes the secondary catalytic converters on the way.
In doing so the entire exhaust loses 17.3kg in weight due to the titanium construction and simplified silencer setup, total weight is 14.3kg. The exhaust gas flow is also enhanced greatly by a the larger diameter piping resulting in some signifcant horsepower and torque gains. Horsepower is increased by up to 17hp @ 6260rpm while torque is increased by 56.1Nm @ 2600rpm (41.4 lb/ft).
The exhaust will retail around the 5,890 Euro mark.
Thanks to Ben @ GTC Racing for the tip off.

akrapovic is poor quality. stay away. i had numerous problems on my bike until i switched to yoshimura.
I wasn’t even aware Akropovic made exhausts for cars. I’ve actually heard good things from all the guys I know that have them on their bikes. They typically make good power.
Akrapovic exhausts are made of excellent quality materials. Keep in mind though that some exhausts fit better to some bikes ( eg suzuki and yoshimura , kawasaki/yamaha and akrapovic , ducati and termignioni).
Now Spies won the championship with Akrapovic. I’m sure that Yamaha Racing department knows what’s best for its WSBK bike, afterall exhaust is a key component in racing therefore only serious makers are taken into consideration.
Tim , your problems could reside in wrong installation ; wrong ecu tuning (to cooperate with exhaust) after installation ; I don’t know….
Now I hope that the Akrapovic RD department did a serious job there with GTR and that it will make the most out of it in terms of performance and weight reduction.
Afterall they make exhaust systems for Porsche racing cars.
