The clip gives us a 1 M Coupe being put through its paces on a racetrack, so you can enjoy all kind of abuse, from speeding and violent acceleration to (small) drifts.
The clip showcases Akrapovic’s top of the range Evolution exhaust system, which manages to squeeze an extra 70 hp and and 65 Nm of torque (48 lb-ft) to the 335 hp and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) that are already there. In addition to that, in is 23 kg (26 lbs) lighter than the stock system.

In case you are wondering how can an exhaust system bring such a high output premium, we have to tell you that this exhaust, which includes stainless steel, catless downpipes that would trigger the check engine light if the vehicle didn’t received some ECU play and thus the tuner also ads a new map.
