Clio 200 akrapovic

[LW93]

i bought a Clio 200 about 2 weeks ago and my "leaving it as it is" idea hasn't lasted very long.
im contemplating getting an akrapovic exhaust for it, was just wondering what people thought of them. Basically are they too loud/ sound good, Worth the money etc etc

i have watched a few videos on YouTube but no doubt it doesn't give an accurate idea of what the exhaust actually sounds like and what they're like to live with daily.

thanks, Lewis

I have absolutely no idea what they sound like but you can guarantee the quality will be absolutely A1 top drawer from Akrapovic, I love their products!:smile::up:

They sound s**t on videos and unreal in person.

110% would recommend.


I missed out on one by this much lol.

I bought a car with one fitted, the cat back version, so I can't compare to standard but I love it.

Not too loud but sounds fantastic.

Cheers guys hopefully collecting one today I'm always a bit worried about buying expensive parts like this second hand though is it better to buy new?

 

[LeeRS]

Was going to say, there is one for sale on here in the for sale section.
I take it that's the one your going to look at?

 

[LW93]

No it was the one on gumtree for £650, managed to get it for £600

No it was the one on gumtree for £650, managed to get it for £600

For the full system?!

Or just the backbox? Either way that's a proper bargain

 

[LeeRS]

Was going to say, the one on here was £1220 fitted by ktec.

They sound great but are biblically expensive. Seeing as you've got one second hand the second part does not apply!

Full system, 2nd hand obviously, here's the link

Bought and fitted originally by Ktec

ive got the full evolution system, as said above they don't sound all that in videos but in real life they sound fantastic, just what the car should have sounded like from the factory.

high up the revs they aint much louder than standard just a nice note, on part throttle they just have a nice tone, mid range on full throttle they sound fantastic, loads of barks and pops on gear changes and the boomy bangs on heel and toe downshifts are epic

fitting was a doddle too, what a well made piece of kit!

I love the crackle on the overrun, first exhaust I've ever had which could do that properly without also being a droning, intrusive POS all the rest of the time!

 

[VR46-G@Z]

Akrapovic are absolutely first class, I've had 3 New motorbike exhausts of different designs from them over the years and they are absolute perfection, the clamps and fittings are top notch and instructions are good. Best of all though they spend millions perfecting the designs regarding sound, power and torque. You'll never get a poor product from Akrapovic..:smile::up:

Paul at RS Turning said they're the only system on the 200 that genuinely gains power too.

proven with my scientific test too lol, standard my car was neck and neck with my mates fn2 from a rolling start and now it pulls on it slightly every time!
