Unleash Performance with the Akrapovic Porsche Panamera GTS / Sport Turismo (971) Evolution Line S-PO/TI/9H
The Akrapovic Porsche Panamera GTS / Sport Turismo (971) Evolution Line S-PO/TI/9H is meticulously engineered to deliver thrilling performance, an unmistakable V8 soundtrack, and eye-catching style. Constructed entirely from high-grade titanium—featuring in-house cast components and an active X connection—this exhaust system cuts exhaust mass by a remarkable 40.8%. That translates into sharper handling and enhanced driving dynamics. Because of its reduced backpressure and optimized gas flow, you can explore limitless tuning possibilities without compromising reliability or daily usability.
Superior Sound Control & Acoustic Tuning
Akrapovič has applied painstaking effort to craft a sporty yet refined exhaust tone. The system’s pair of additional valves sits behind the rear mufflers, letting you seamlessly switch between a fuller, racy note and a quieter, more relaxed purr—perfect for extended highway journeys. With the optional Akrapovič Sound Kit (P-HF1149), you can override the vehicle’s factory modes, personalizing the exhaust volume and character at the push of a button. Keep in mind that using the Sound Kit revokes the ECE type approval.
Key Acoustic Highlights:
- Deep, Higher-Frequency V8 Tone: Reflects the massive torque of the Panamera’s powerplant.
- Drone-Free Comfort: Enjoy an aggressive soundtrack without sacrificing long-distance refinement.
- Active X Connection: Precisely merges exhaust pulses from both cylinder banks for a layered, resonant sound.
Straightforward Installation & ECE Compliance
This exhaust system is a true plug-and-play solution. You don’t need any custom remapping or additional parts (unless you have the base Porsche exhaust, in which case the Middle Valve Actuator Kit [P-HF1170] is mandatory). When fitted on Panamera GTS / Sport Turismo (non-Executive), it meets ECE requirements for vehicles not equipped with an Otto particulate filter. If your car has OPF, you can still install the system, but ECE type approval no longer applies.
Tailpipe Options & Aesthetic Enhancements of Akrapovic Porsche Panamera GTS / Sport Turismo (971) Evolution Line S-PO/TI/9H
To emphasize the system’s aggressive styling, the installation requires the Tail pipe set (Carbon) [TP-CT/48]—two pairs of striking round carbon-fiber exhaust tips. Thanks to meticulous craftsmanship and heat-resistant properties, they project a premium look that aligns with the Panamera’s upscale nature. Alongside the bold acoustic signature, these tailpipes ensure your Porsche stands out even at a glance.
