Material / Construction: Usually made of titanium for light weight and strength in Akrapovič optional headers.
Performance / Benefits:
• Increases exhaust flow, offers modest power & torque gains over stock header
• Reduces weight compared to OEM header design (especially when using titanium)
• To avoid “check engine” light or improper fueling, ECU remap / tuning is often recommended after installation.
Notes / Warnings:
• The optional header may not meet emissions / street-legal standards in all jurisdictions.
• Proper gasket sealing, fitment tolerances, and alignment with downstream muffler / mid-pipes are important to avoid exhaust leaks or misfit issues.
• Heat management and clearances must be checked, especially around the frame, body panels, and nearby components.
