NEW Akrapovic M4 Promo Video // Silence is Overrated // JUST RELEASED

We thought everyone would like to see the new Akrapovic Promo video for the M4 Evolution Exhaust System.

Having had our system for over 3 months we can’t imagine a time when our M4 didn’t sound so good. As the video states - Silence is Overrated.







We also didn't want you to forget how good the system looks when it's installed.

Wow that is some great marketing right there. Probably the most entrancing video of an M4 I've seen yet.

That fart on startup tho...

In all honesty it's a pretty cool video. But as far as these exhaust companies "showcasing" their setups, I find it frustrating and counter productive (IMO) to have such a highly edited presentation of how an exhaust sounds. All the other akra vids out there sound nothing like this. There's really just a lot of nice noises here but nothing to make any overall judgement.

I like the TPG video, where it's just the car and the road. It revs, accelerates and then drives by. That's how you sell me an exhaust, not the way eisenmann and akrapovic are attempting.

Totally agree with you. They should be ashamed of themselves. How can you in good conscience the producer of a exhaust system put fake sounds in your video to sell a exhaust. What's wrong with the authentic sound if your proud of it at least.

What's wrong with this??? And I'm talking about the authentic not manufactured sound.


Sure that's the E92 who's baseline sounded better but that's authentic sound.

Plus the new system is not the slip on system. I'm reading posts all over the web of people buying the exhaust and being disappointed. The MPE sounds better unless your adding DP and x-pipe. Go figure.

Yes. This is a cool video. Production wise. Guess I see why they charge $6k to cover the costs of producing this and the marketing. I guess something are just about image.
