About Akrapovic

Akrapovic is a pioneer in the innovative use of titanium and super-alloys. The brand is at the forefront of carbon-fiber component development and production. Akrapovic exhaust systems are renowned for increasing performance, unmistakable sound, innovative design, lightweight technology, quality workmanship, and durability.

A pioneer in its field, Akrapovic is widely recognized as a highly innovative materials technology company. The brand is synonymous with the highest level of design, performance enhancement and the creation of an unmistakable deeply resonant exhaust sound. The company’s aftermarket mufflers and exhaust pipes are designed and manufactured for motorcycles and performance cars by a passionate and highly-skilled workforce of over 1000 employees using the latest technology, processes and finest materials. The Racing R&amp;D department works with dozens of racing teams. Over 100 world champions have already relied on Akrapovic exhaust systems. And this is just the beginning of a long exciting ride. Shop below for Akrapovic mufflers, exhausts, sound kits and tail pipe sets.

Akrapovic

Racing has always been the lifeblood of Akrapovic and, as the company reached its 25thanniversary in 2016, it also celebrated its 100th world championship title, a feat achieved when Jorge Lorenzo (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) won the MotoGP championship in 2015. The technical ability and support Akrapovic provides to teams competing in MotoGP, EWC, WorldSBK, MXGP, Enduro, Supercross, Dakar rally, DTM, and FIA WEC give them the competitive edge, which follows the same heritage and know-how that is transferred into road and off-road systems.

Increased performance, user-friendly controllable power delivery, signature sound, and durable lightweight exhausts are all directly related to the research, development, and testing that every Akrapovic exhaust is subjected to in the racing arena, giving it a pedigree that is rarely matched.

The company operates from state-of-the-art production facilities and technologically advanced R&D facilities in Slovenia, which include an in-house titanium foundry, a metallurgical laboratory, several motorcycle and car dynamometers, and high-tech production machinery. Akrapovic has over 1000 employees and markets its products in more than 80 countries worldwide.

Akrapovic Materials

The company made a great leap forward in 2009, when it opened its own in-house cutting-edge titanium foundry; it is still the only exhaust system supplier with its own in-house foundry. The titanium foundry facility participates in all phases of the investment casting process, from wax injection to the final inspection of the cast parts with X-ray radioscopy and other control procedures, such as chemical analyses, mechanical properties, and dimensional accuracy.

Akrapovic has a fully equipped metallurgical laboratory for testing the material properties and quality of products. The company believes that metallography is a great tool for understanding the limits of exhaust systems and materials. They achieve all of this using exclusive in-house knowledge and technologies, and more than twenty years of experience in processing special materials for exhaust systems.

The company’s exhaust systems are crafted from proprietary titanium alloys. These are three times stronger than other “commercial” alloys available. Their high quality and strength make them more difficult to form than common alloys, but they ensure products that are substantially more durable, dimensionally more stable, and have significantly increased heat resistance.

Its carbon-fiber components are produced in-house with temperature-resistant carbon-fiber resins. Through innovative production techniques, the company can produce parts with very complex shapes in various sizes. These hand crafted high-quality materials are used as parts of exhaust systems such as carbon-fiber muffler outer sleeves and heatshields on motorcycles, and the appearance of a car can be further improved with optional handcrafted carbon-fiber rear diffusers and carbon-fiber tailpipes.

The family of nickel-based superalloys that are alloyed with chrome, molybdenum, and niobium are also commercially known as Inconel alloys. These kinds of alloys have exceptional mechanical properties at extremely low and high temperatures. They are also extremely resistant to corrosion and corrosive acids (both surface resistance and at the crystal level) and have very high oxidation resistance.

Mini

These are some of the items you can find at LMPerformance for your Mini

The original Mini was a line of iconic British small cars manufactured by the British Motor Corporation from 1959 until 2000 with models like the Morris Mini-Minor and the Austin Seven, the Countryman, Moke,1275GT and Clubman and the Performance versions Cooper, named for racing legend John Cooper. The original two-door Mini continued in production until 2000. The Mini was originally a product of the British Motor and was ultimately purchased by BMW. In 2000. LMPerformance has the parts you need for your Mini Clubman, Cooper, Countryman, Hardtop, Mini, Mini S, Roadster, PACEMAN, John Cooper Works, and Cooper S.

If you want a better ride on your Mini Cooper S try the aftermarket performance B&G Suspension Sport Lowering Springs fabricated to improve handling while maintaining safety and ride quality because they are wound from high tensile Chromium-Silicone wire, cold wound on CNC coilers, heat treated and shot peened for longevity; and finished with phosphate treatment and a baked on resin powder coating for a hard corrosion resistant shell. The center of gravity was lowered by .5 to 2.5 inches on these springs and they have a progressive spring rate design to improved ride quality and handling.

Coilovers, springs that go over your shocks, permit the lowering of your vehicle and as a result help to lessen body roll. The R1 and R2 Coil-Over Kits for your Clubman and Cooper from the esteemed manufacture EIBACH are a mono tube design with 46mm pistons for maximum performance, bodies that are stainless steel to resist corrosion and provide durability and spring rates that can be tuned with a wide range of available ERS Springs. The EIBACH coil-over kits, unlike springs, allow you to tune each corner weight precisely for unprecedented balance affording the ultimate in cornering power and also offering a range of damping adjustments for comfort - perfect for racers and performance drivers. For still finer performance driving and to further reduce body roll install ANTI-ROLL performance Sway Bars from EIBACH that are much stiffer than your stock sway bar and result in improved performance handling and corner gripping. For the Cooper and Clubman who only want a great looking car for street driving, Lowering Springs from EIBACH can serve to make your car have that muscle car look and also result in reducing the total drag on your vehicle for better performance and greater fuel economy.

Better aerodynamics, a great look, improved performance are all a result of adding body parts to your Mini Cooper especially from the outstanding DURAFLEX brand. For a great look add a Roof Wing Spoiler or for better aerodynamics and to improve down force levels choose a Body Skirt or a Rear Diffuser or a Full Body Kit; all made with the inimitable DURAFLEX combination of flex resins, plastic and fiberglass for the ultimate in durability.

Unrestricted air flow equals better performance and you can have that for your Cooper with a primo BORLA Exhaust System, designed specifically for your vehicle with outstanding quality stainless steel inside and out, a less restrictive system, exclusive Inter-cooled Tips and installation that is doable in about two hours
