Akrapovic Exhaust System for BMW Z4/M40i (G29)

Manufactured to exacting specifications from high-grade titanium – with parts cast in Akrapovic’s in-house foundry – this system utilises lightweight materials to reduce overall vehicle weight and optimize power and torque through the entire rev range. Meeting ECE type approval, the design of the system fully adapts to the lines of the car, and the single-muffler layout with four superb hand-crafted carbon-fibre round tailpipes give a distinctive look to the rear of the car. Various sound modes add to the experience, with a sporty and animated roar from the six-cylinder engine when the revs rise, and a more pleasing experience in comfort mode, ideal for cruising with the roof down.

An optional Akrapovic Sound Kit is available to control the various sound settings, and optional tuning opportunities exist through the addition of the stainless-steel Evolution Link Pipe set. As with the Sound Kit, fitting the Link Pipe will negate the ECE type approval.

Fitment and EC type-approval are valid for engine type B58B30C. ECE type approval is only valid for cars equipped with otto/gasoline particulate filter.

For installing the slip-on system, the stock exhaust system has to be cut. Please read the instructions carefully before the start of the installation.

Evolution Link Pipe Set (Titanium) was tested and developed together with the Slip-On Line (Titanium) system.

The Evolution link pipe set upgrades the Slip-On system to the Evolution system. The Evolution link pipe set is constructed from high-quality austenitic stainless steel. It features an arrangement of two central link pipes for the best flow of the exhaust gases from the engine. It is designed to increase power and torque and reduce overall weight, while delivering a deep and sporty sound with no unwanted drone or streaming.

THIS PRODUCT DOES NOT MEET EMISSION COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR STREET OR HIGHWAY USE.

This product is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, with the front part of the downpipe cast in Akrapovic’s in-house foundry. A sporty 300 cpsi catalytic converter is integrated into the downpipe, with the heat insulation made of stainless steel and a flexible tube incorporated into the middle section. Power gains with an Evolution Line (Titanium) fitted with the Akrapovic downpipe of 18.7 kW (25.4 hp) at 5,600 rpm and torque increases of 34.7 Nm at 2,400 rpm have been recorded when tested on the Akrapovic dyno against a BMW M440i with the standard stock exhaust. It delivers a pure racing sound, full of emotion and adrenalin-inducing enjoyment, and great feedback at high revs, all without unwanted drone. This product is meant for racetrack use only, and remapping the ECU is mandatory in order to prevent potential “check engine light” warning signals.

The downpipe is an optional product for the following Evolution Line (Titanium) exhaust systems:
