Default ZR1 Akrapovic Installed and Apr Diffuser

Akra is always top notch...looks and sounds beautiful especially with the carbon tips and the carbon diffuser

Im curious to hear how louder the akra are with closed valves. That's what kept me away from them. I like the quietness of the stock catback. But damn they look good! !!

Honestly it seems the same as when you pull the fuse on stock. Maybe a tad lighter and the only drone is from around 1200-1600 and its not bad drone that hurts your ears but noticeable...i still have the flaps open all the time. I'll see if the drone is gone with the fuse back in

i can try and get some vids if want...but there is no question even it sounded stock it just looks so bad ***

The exhaust looks great on your car. They make such a clean looking, high quality system. The carbon tips are so badass!

Do you have the titanium or ss version of their exhaust? I also would enjoy hearing how they sound.

Titanium. If you look at the install pic you can see how the titanium changes color from heat (used part)

sounds angry!!! But closed valves is too loud for my taste though, I love how quiet it is and how wild she becomes open. Gotta love how akra looks
