Aggressive Sound:
A free-flowing, transverse muffler is used to absorb high pitch tones producing a powerful sound and unleashing all available horsepower and torque. The muffler is finished with a high-temp powder-coated black finish and a stamped aFe power logo.

Exhaust Valve:
This down-pipe back exhaust system incorporates a factory style exhaust valve which uses the factory exhaust valve motor (not included). The valve helps regulate, direct and control the flow of exhaust gases by opening, closing, or partially obstructing passageways depending on throttle position for maximum performance.

Simple Installation:
This MACH Force-Xp axle-back exhaust system uses factory mounting locations providing stability and a hassle-free installation.

Quad 4" Gloss Black Tips 
Finishing off this system are quad 4" diameter, gloss black, 304 stainless steel tips. The tips come with a laser-etched aFe power logo for an aggressive style.

Leak-Free Seal:
High quality band clamps are used for a complete 360 degree sealing surface.

Brushed 304 SS Construction:
The performance axle-back exhaust system is constructed of 3" to 2-1/2" mandrel-bent, brushed 304 stainless steel tubing for maximum performance, corrosion resistance and strength eliminating cracking.

DETAILS:

• Constructed from 100% hand TIG-welded, 3" to 2-1/2" mandrel bent, brushed finished 304 stainless steel tubing
• Includes a factory style exhaust valve
• Utilizes a unique high flow, transverse muffler with a high-temp powder-coated black finish
• Includes quad 4" diameter, gloss black, 304 stainless steel tips
• Uses all factory hanger locations for a hassle-free installation

The F10 M5 is one of the most impressive road cars ever created and the Akrapovic Evolution exhaust is the perfect enhancement. The new M TwinPower Turbo M5 has been a welcome challenge to the Akrapovi? R&D department, which is responsible for developing truly amazing exhaust system that offer more power, weighs less, and have an EC type-approval stamp at the same time.

The new Evolution exhaust system consists of newly developed dual-outlet mufflers with exhaust valves, flow-optimized pipes, and a unique cast titanium X-shaped part with resonators. The X-pipe, valves, and flange assembly are produced in our foundry. To top off this work of art, we've got polished titanium and aerospace-grade carbon fiber tail pipes to choose from.

The Evolution system lowers the back pressure and gives the M5 more power and torque through the whole range of rpms. It increases responsiveness. The Evolution system offers an even greater difference in weight, improving the power-to-weight ratio. Gains are achieved without removing the catalytic converters. While developing this system, we especially focused on sound. An M5 with the Evolution system delivers a deep, aggressive roar when driven hard, coaxing bangs out of the unique tail pipes when shifting and going off the throttle. To top it all off, the Evolution system is drone free and works well with the M5's Active Noise Cancellation system - just like the valve system, which is regulated through the M5's settings. Not for sale outside the US or Canada.

aFe is proud to introduce the aFe Twisted Steel® non-catalytic down-pipe for the 2012-2013 BMW F30 335i with the L6-3.0L (N55) engine. In testing this system resulted in a max gain of 13 horsepower and 27 lbs. x ft. of torque and outflowed the restricted OE catalytic converter by up to 190%. This high performance race pipe delivers pure, race-inspired raw power and also produces an aggressive and exciting exhaust sound during hard throttle. aFe also used a massive, light-weight 4" diameter 304 stainless steel tube and progressively tapers to increase exhaust velocity and usable torque.

Tig-Welded: 
100% TIG-Welded by certified craftsmen for race proven strength and durability. TIG-Welding provides the strongest welds reducing stress cracks.

Tapered Design: 
A unique 4" Dia. 304 stainless steel taper design is used to increase exhaust velocity and increase usable torque. This means more aggressive throttle response and increased passing power.

Factory O2 Sensor Locations: 
Factory mounting locations for all O2 sensors.

Hassle-Free Installation: 
OE style brackets are included for a hassle-free installation. This unit also comes with a lifetime warranty.

aFe down pipes are engineered and manufactured in our Corona, California manufacturing facility.
