PURE SOUND - 718 GT4 Exhaust Akrapovic Link Pipes (vs Stock)

[@mpp9964]

Great job on the audio. I have listened to a lot of these now and you did a really nice job on capturing the actual tone

[@CJR_989]

Link pipes really do make the sound different, much deeper and sounds more angry! Nice👌

[@MrHCars]

OPF really has killed everything ☹️

[@ZayniD]

Man these sound videos are just pure music!

[@NoorJosef]

Great video mate!! You was really able to portray the difference very nicely, bravo👏🏽

[@MrHCars]

Thanks mate! And thanks again for letting me film it 🤌🏼

[@NoorJosef]

@@MrHCars It’s my pleasure buddy👊🏽

[@whatsupwithsteve]

Started out great but then you went pretty much for just the Akrapovic car. I would have liked to hear those same runs with the stock GT4. Other than that, a great job demoing the exhaust note!

[@MrHCars]

Thanks Steve! There are a few Stock comparisons in there. I filmed a video of just my stock gt4 too, in the same location, in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKHEZJJun7SYp9k&ab_channel=MrHCars Hope that helps

[@gentianmedia3814]

Man that sounds good! I assume your friend also has the valve override function where the PSE doesn’t interfere? Any drone with the valves closed?

[@MrHCars]

Ye, I forgot to mention that Noor has unplugged his valves 😅 There’s a slight drone between 2k-4k revs. But I have the valve controller on mine, so I just revert back to stock and close valves. Noor doesn’t seem to mind it

[@gentianmedia3814]

@@MrHCars dude! this video honestly sold me on the Akra OAP's. Bought a set, will be here in 4-8 weeks, super excited! I will have the soul valve controller installed on mine so ill control the valves that way, and the cool thing about the soul valve controller is i can use the homelink buttons to control the valves. Cant wait!

[@thatporschedude]

How do you like it after a year? I just purchased a 718 GT4. Trying to figure out what exhaust mods to do@@gentianmedia3814

[@gentianmedia3814]

@@thatporschedude it’s absolutely perfect, would recommend getting a valve controller first and seeing if that’ll scratch the itch then going OAP

[@thatporschedude]

I went ahead and ordered OAP, but havent ordered the valve controller. I think I'll do that as well@@gentianmedia3814

[@rezakhalvati6150]

Sounds awesome!

[@davegoh27]

Sounds great. Are you guys downshifting to first in those videos?!

[@MrHCars]

Thanks! And we are, ye

[@willwall9841]

Do you you have to remap the car after the akro link pipes are added ? :)

[@tom_f87competition16]

You need to hear my 981 with fabspeed race headers 😅 it sounds like a race car haha

[@MrHCars]

😍 I’m down to find that, if you’re close to Reading?

[@jortepap]

Too loud/too much imo. Prefer the sound of this 718 Akrapovic link pipe only set up.

[@marcopomposi]

Hi, any light/limp mode without OPF? How do you handle it?

[@MrHCars]

You get a light but car doesn’t go into limp. Still drives exactly the same

[@Doc1Lee]

Nice video.

[@Peter-uu8iw]

Did you have a remap with the link pipes?

[@MrHCars]

Nope. Still running stock power

[@Peter-uu8iw]

RPM told me the a remap would give about 40 hp boost and 60 if you had the full system !

[@stephenlongfield8492]

@@MrHCarsno cel lights from removing the opf?

[@MrHCars]

@@stephenlongfield8492 nope, just use an OBD blocker

[@Alex-dz6xw]

​You didnt have to do a ecu tune? ​@@MrHCars

[@alexxm2944]

Does the one with OAP also have valve control?

[@mattsandford]

I know its late but others might be curious - but yes the valve control is in the backbox, not the link pipes.

[@henr1k5]

What OBD delete thing did you use?

[@MrHCars]

[@gogolio]

Does it have the annoying drone at low rpm?

[@MrHCars]

Nope! And that’s why I removed my backbox & swapped to this setup too

[@gogolio]

Did you by any chance measure power gains? @@MrHCars

[@MrHCars]

@@gogolio no, didn’t do any dyno runs unfortunately. I only did it for noise benefits

[@Sunny-nz5bi]

Akro-povic or A-crap-ovic…? Being serious here no jokes

[@MrHCars]

Whichever is easiest to say 😂

[@rokan81]

It’s Akrapovic-h not Akrapovik, if you’re going to be serious about it be serious about it and learn how to pronounce the most famous exhaust company in the world especially since you put it on your Porsche.

[@kiyalami8478]

Still sounds terrible compared to 981. But at least it's louder and you shed the OPF boat anchors!

[@f5dspeedflyer]

Stock is defently better, it is more undestatement than this silly roaring Akrapovic….
