The Akrapovic Racing and Evolution complete exhaust systems are the championship winning flagships of our product lines. They are designed for competition-oriented MX riders who demand maximum performance from their exhaust systems, made of extremely durable high grade titanium. With their production quality, engine performance improvements, weight reduction and modern Hexagonal muffler design they satisfy even top pro racers. In the USA they are available with an approved spark arrestor. Our patented additional chamber helps to reduce noise emission and provides better power and torque delivery.For the 2010 YZ450F Racing exhaust system we use stainless steel tubes and a composite end cap, but for a few extra bucks you can have the Evolution full exhaust system that uses titanium tubes with a carbon-fiber end cap for the 2010 YZ 450 F.
Measurements of the Akrapovic EVOLUTION system on the YAMAHA YZ 450 F (with muffler insert):
Power and Torque: The Akrapovic Evolution and Racing systems deliver a performance increase throughout the bottom and top rpm range. The systems deliver increased torque through entire power curve, that will additionally help at reducing lap times on the track. Max. increased power of 2.5 HP was measured at 10000 rpm, while max. power of 53.6 HP was measured at 9300 rpm.
The power gains are siginificant on the Evolution and Racing versions of the 2010 Akrapovic exhaust system; more importantly, this pipe smooths out the powerband to make more usable power from the brutal low punch all the way up through high-revving horsepower. James 'Bubba' Stewart's 2010 Factory Yamaha YZ450F utilizes this full exhaust system.
