German carmaker BMW released the M2 Coupe last year, the model gradually becoming one of the most important rides in the tuning world, and that because of its extremely advanced aerodynamics and evolutionary design.

The car`s body style is fully tweaked with the M Performance Parts, making it extremely lightweight and increasing its performance figures. It was also fitted with the M Performance exhaust system in some markets, also allowing for a wilder engine growl.

However, there are plenty of tuners that prefer removing the M Performance exhaust system in favour of the Akrapovic`s high-performance exhaust, which allows for increase power and quite astonishing engine soundtrack. The video below is trying to compare both exhaust systems that the model can be had with.

The M Performance Exhaust system adds a lot of noise and driving thrill to the gorgeous M2 Coupe and the aforementioned spicy prices wouldn’t be an issue for a real BMW lover.

There is no doubt that the M2 Coupe can be visibly improved by tuners, with different aftermarket parts and new mechanics. Is indeed the Akrapovic`s exhaust much better and more impressive than the M Performance exhaust? It is up to you to find out in the video below.

As a reminder, the 2016 BMW M2 Coupe is equipped with a 3.0-liter M TwinPower Turbo inline flat-six engine, churning out 370 horsepower and 465 Nm of torque. This is enough to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds with a DCT and 4.5 seconds with the manual.

A pair of new wheels is what perfects the design of a gorgeous BMW product, in our case an exceptionally handsome F82 M4, coming with some aero tweaks and HRE wheels.

There are a couple of well-known tuners in the wheel industry that constantly take care of the looks of the BMW M4, and HRE Wheels shop is one of them. Its latest project involves the below F82 M4, adorned as well with the high-performance R101 LW wheels.

The car`s Mineral Gray body wrap is a perfect match for the tuner`s R101LW custom forged wheels, which provide increased stance and better grip, thanks to their sheer size and composite. They are also perfect for intense burn-outs, drifting sessions and track use.

The tuner`s wheels measure 20 x 8.5 and 20 x 10.5 front and rear and are finished in Frozen Rose Bronze. They also come with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires, which are perfect for the track. Besides the new wheels, this lad seen here also features a couple of some new styling bits as well.

We are looking here at carbon fiber components from PSM Dynamic, like carbon fiber rear diffuser and the high-performance Akrapovic bespoke exhaust system which adds a distinctive note to the car`s powerful engine. Other high-end features also refer to the KW Suspension Clubsport three-way adjustable coilovers which adjust the car` ride height for increase stance and stability on the road.

Under the hood, even if this F82 BMW M4 comes with a high-performance exhaust system which announces a slight overboost, it still remains stock with the 3.0-liter straight-six engine, with 431 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque.

The gorgeous BMW M4 is perhaps the most customized model from the German group, and that because it comes with a stock body styling that allows for insane customizations both at the exterior as well as inside. Not to mention the plethora of power kits under the hood that makes it one of the best sports cars out there.

Every time we get our hands on one, we feel blessed that we get to share its exquisite looks with you folks. The model seen below is also standing out from the crowd with the Yas Marina Blue and the new aero parts and wheels, from different tuning companies.

This lad here looks complete, with performance upgrades also added. In the stock form, the high-performance 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline six-cylinder engine churns out 431 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque. With the six-speed transmission, the model gets a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds, while with the seven-speed M Dual-Clutch, the M4 reaches 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds.

The power kit from VF Engineering and the Akrapovic`s exhaust system surely makes the car more powerful, but unfortunately for now, there are not any new figures released.

The car`s main highlights refer to the prominent rear wing from RevoZport as well as the new side skirts and PSM Dynamic rear diffuser. Also, the new two-way adjustable suspension system courtesy of KW, Dinan sway bars, control arms and the high-performance HRE R101 alloy wheels, finished in black, provide the model with unique look, more aggressive attitude and increase stance.

The BMW M4 Coupe is our star again, today the model popping-up on the web with a complete and new AC Schnitzer aero kit and some impressive power boost, the entire installation being carried out by the BMW passionate over BMW Heerman und Rhein tuner.

The technicians have installed the rare Satin Battleship Grey body wrap, which provides the model with an exquisite feel and look, along with other standout body parts courtesy of AC Schnitzer.

As most of the present newly applied aero kits, this one also comes with a lot of carbon fiber parts, visible on the car`s rear diffuser, front air splitters, or side mirror covers. Other features also refer to the M Performance carbon fiber rear spoiler and kidney grilles.

There is no styling upgrade without a set of new wheels, this smashing BMW M4 also looking refresh with the new 20-inch Type V Anthracite alloy wheels, perfectly complementing the Akrapovic`s exhaust system at the rear carbon fiber tips.

The presence of the Akrapovic exhaust system also indicates some new figures under the hood. This means that the stock 3.0-liter BMW TwinPower Turbo straight-six inline engine has been also upgraded from the stock 431 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque to 510 horsepower and 645 Nm of torque. We don’t have the performance figures, but we should expect less than the stock 4.3 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h.

The Satin Battleship Grey BMW M4 with AC Schnitzer kit can be admired in the media gallery below released by Kojak Photographie!

If you were wondering why the sheer number of customized BMW M2 Coupes by different aftermarket shops, the answer is quite simple: it comes with the perfect aerodynamics and body styling cues, which make it easy to customize both at the exterior as well as underneath the skin.

The last time we have heard about a fine-tuned BMW M2 Coupe was about a week ago, the top of the line from 2-Series receiving some nice body aero parts from Hamann, along with a rear muffler, part of a more thorough project yet to be unveiled.

This time, the gorgeous BMW M2 Coupe is the subject of another interesting project carried out by Akrapovic. In fact, the model looks so hot with the tuner`s exhaust system that it was put for a real show in a commercial.

We are not going to spoil all the fun, but rest assure that the video is mind-blowing and focuses both on the car as well as on the Akrapovic`s exhaust. In fact, it should be a natural connection between the two of them, otherwise, there would be a complete disaster.

All Akrapovic exhaust systems are high-end and made of the most reliable materials, providing each model with an extremely aggressive growl and improved power. This one seen here is also made from titanium, meaning that it is more lightweight and eliminates corrosion down the line. And the system does raises the car`s power by 9 horsepower and 7.2 Nm of torque.

In case you own an M2 Coupe and want some impressive engine sounds, then I suggest you head towards the tuner`s stand and let them take care of it!

Ever since its humble beginning on the market last year, the already famous F82 BMW M4 has been a real sensation worldwide, along with its sibling the BMW M3 Sedan, both models receiving their rightful place amongst the hottest sports cars in the world.

And telling you honestly, the F82 BMW M4 has changed the entire thinking of the aftermarket shops, which have begun to develop special and customized programs concerning the body style. And only a handful of M4s have received some mods under the hood. And this F82 BMW M4 received the same treatment, the model being fitted with the Akrapovic exhaust system. The entire program was put together by the one and only Hamann German based tuner.

And if the 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine would normally produce 425 horsepower and 550 Nm of torque, via the M-DCT transmission, with the Akrapovic exhaust system the sports car is now producing 516 horsepower and impressive 700 Nm of torque. But if you really want to see this modified F82 BMW M4 in action, then just push the play button and enjoy the full engine revving!

Apart the Akrapovic exhaust system, the aftermarket specialists from the Hamann tuner division have also fitted the body style with more aggressive design lines, making it a really standout model! Enjoy the video with the F82 BMW M4 Akrapovic Exhaust by Hamann!

I get shivers down my spine whenever I hear about the Akrapovic exhaust system being fitted on different BMW models, especially on the company`s latest creations, the BMW M3 Sedan and BMW M4 Coupe. In this case, the powerful E90 BMW M3 has also received the same exhaust system, thanks to the guys from the PSI tuning division.

Apart from the power increase, the Akrapovic exhaust system also provide an astonishing engine sound that would impress even a Ferrari or a Lamborghini fan. Not to mention the entire powertrain fitted under the hood which adds more flavor. Of course, along with the fitting of this high-performance exhaust system, there was also a slight power increase.

Speaking about performance under the hood, the new E90 BMW M3 is coming with the company`s latest S65 V8 unit, which is capable of producing 414 horsepower and 400 Nm of torque, at 3,900 rpm, hooked to a six-speed manual transmission. However, there is also the possibility of fitting the BMW M3 with other performance gearboxes, like the ones BMW released back in 2008.

I am talking here about the 7-speed Getrag dual-clutch gearbox, which in this business is called the M-DKG (Doppel-Kupplungs-Getriebe) as well as the more famous M-DCT (Double Clutch Transmission), which improves the performance of the sports car by reducing the shift pauses, meaning that the 0 to 100 km/h sprint can be shortened by 0.2 seconds, as opposed to a manual transmission.

Apart from these fittings, the photo gallery also provides a closer step-by-step look on the installation process of the Akrapovic exhaust system on the mighty E90 BMW M3! Enjoy!
