Akrapovic BMW M240i (G42) 2022+ Exhaust Slip-On Line (Titanium) S-BM/T/32H



Offering a noticeable weight savings, increased power and torque, and a dramatic soundtrack, this system is constructed from lightweight high-grade titanium and completed with hand-crafted carbon-fibre tailpipes. Power and torque are increased by 7.1 Kw (9.7 hp) at 2,450 rpm and 20.5 Nm at 2,450 rpm when tested on the Akrapovič dyno against a BMW M240i with a standard stock exhaust. An exhilarating soundtrack is delivered through the use of special parts fitted in the system. Two valves – instead of one, as in the stock configuration – are calibrated to tailor the sound, and two acoustic reflectors are fitted on the tailpipes to guide the sound into the car’s cabin and change the driving experience, producing a fully immersive sound in the car’s cockpit, to supply thrills and enjoyment that can be enjoyed by all occupants. Because the Akrapovič Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system has two valves, one more than the stock configuration, a TNG controller is included in the product to activate the additional exhaust valve. Two resonators, one on each side of the central muffler, perfect the sound experience.

The smooth, rich sound at normal cruising rises to a deep and sporty soundtrack when driving more enthusiastically, and the tones can also be controlled from within the cockpit with addition of the optional Akrapovič Sound Kit. Special parts are cast in the Akrapovič in-house foundry to create the intricate and complex items needed for this system. It meets ECE type approval, and no remapping is needed for this configuration (ECE certificate is valid only for cars equipped with OPF).

An extra stock valve actuator (part nr. 18 30 8 686 640) is needed when installing the Slip-On exhaust system on BMW M240i (G42)

I'm almost afraid to ask, but how much is it?

$7g's for an M240 part, lol. Good luck selling that one guys

Patiently waiting for the Dinan axle back option and hopefully it's not over $1500 😅

I needed that laugh today. Thx

[tubingchamp]

I remember when entire FI setups were $7k..

[MPR]

$7k might make sense if this was a Bugatti... we're talking a non-M BMW, 2 series .

[ZeusHorkios]

$6700!!! Geez!

[Roadwar]

I can't even afford the $800.00 cd of what it sounds like!

For half the price the other Companies making exhaust for the M240i sound near enough the same. 7K for an M lite part is just insane though.

[whiteninjazx6r]

This is laughably overpriced. Imagine spending over 10% of the cars MSRP for a lil bump in sound and HP...hard....HARDEST pass.

Akrapovic is not for everyone that's for sure. But it does sound great, and your car will sound unique

geez that price, can't wait to see if Dinan's will be cheaper

Dinan is always cheaper than Akrapovic, comparing their other systems its around 25% - 33%

$6700 is WAY too much for an axle back, doesn't even include the sound kit and you need to buy an additional actuator from BMW as well. If it was half the price I'd most likely buy it, or if this was for an actual M car, totally. but for an M-lite, big nope.
It sounds good but I'd rather save that money to potentially upgrade to a G87 in the future.

I spent $600 on a nice set of professionally-installed tips in the absence of a pre-fabbed system. Sure, it's all for looks...but it does the part very well. The unwashed masses haven't a clue.

Did you keep the stock exhaust and just change the tips?

[FLURP]

Yep.

I know I'll have to chuck them if I eventually get a cat-back/axle-back system that has it's own tips. That will be at least a year, so I don't mind.
