Yes I have down pipe and full exhaust, with carbon tips. I love it. Great performance and sound without getting unneeded attention.

I would love an akrapovic exhaust system, except it's way too expensive for me :(

Great quality, great sound and you get what you pay for. Having said that, nothing here as nothing for my car.

Would have liked an option "No, I'd love to but probably not any time soon." Your exhaust sounds amazing, but there are a ton of other things I could do with that much money so I don't see buying them any time soon.

Nothing against the brand. I went with the Milltek DP because of all the anecdotal evidence about relative ease os installation and already had the JCW Pro exhaust from the tuning kit. This is on a 3rd Gen car though. I didn’t notice the poll was for second Gen until I had already voted. Sorry if this skews your results.

Good Stuff

Akrapovic is one of the best builders of aftermarket parts for everything they supply. Whether it’s for our GSXR, GTR, MINI, etc., but it is pricey. Make good decisions with your money. If you have extra and don’t have to eat ramen noddles for a month to buy it, buy it. You will be happy. And when you sell it, their used products bring top dollar as well. So you could view it as an investment.

They are no longer on here and the main distributor is now direct with us.

They have a great system and I hope they heard my voice last time I talked to them and come out with an F56 system.

Quilty is top notch and no problem with fitment.

I've seen many threads reviewing their products. High quality, durability, perfect fitment, acoustics, and performance gains. But there are other vendors offering similar products at fraction of the price.

I dont think they are too expensive. I think there are too many poor people on here. #justsaying
Something isn't 'too expensive' just because you can't afford it or see the value in buying something like that. The item is probably priced correctly, it's you are too cheap 😜.

PS: Akrapovic isnt the best quality/performance solution for mini. It would be good if it was cheaper..With that money its actually bad for my opinion.
