The Akrapovic Corvette C8 Exhaust System has been engineered for drivers who want to elevate Chevrolet’s mid-engine Stingray to its full potential. Offered as the Titanium Slip-On Line and the stainless steel Link Pipe Set with 200 cpsi catalytic converters, the system provides a balanced mix of power, weight reduction, and aggressive sound. Each component is the result of advanced engineering and a racing heritage that has positioned Akrapovic among the world’s most respected exhaust manufacturers.
Every piece of the Akrapovic Corvette C8 Exhaust System is constructed with precision, using materials like high-grade titanium and austenitic stainless steel to deliver long-lasting durability and performance. The combination of weight savings and dyno-proven gains makes these systems a natural upgrade for track-focused Corvette owners who demand more than the factory exhaust can deliver.
The Slip-On Exhaust System transforms the Corvette C8 Stingray into an entirely new driving experience. Built from lightweight titanium, this system weighs over 47 percent less than the OEM sport exhaust while maintaining the strength and durability required for high-performance use. Beyond the numbers, the titanium construction offers better heat resistance and a refined finish that distinguishes it from typical aftermarket options.
At the rear, two square titanium tailpipes finished in black give the Corvette C8 an updated, aggressive look. More than cosmetic, they help project the tuned sound signature of the system. At lower revs, the tone is a deep, classic V8 throb. Push the Stingray higher into the rpm range, and the note develops into a full-bodied roar, delivering the kind of visceral experience that transforms every lap or back straight.
Akrapovic validated the Slip-On’s design with extensive dyno testing. Results show a power increase of 3.4 kW (4.6 hp) at 5,250 rpm and torque gains of 8.2 Nm at 3,100 rpm over the stock sport exhaust. These aren’t just incremental improvements; they contribute to sharper throttle response, improved drivability, and a more engaging connection between driver and car. No remapping is required, making this system a straightforward performance upgrade for those who take their C8 to the track.
For drivers who want to push their setup even further, the Akrapovic Link Pipe Set with cats is the perfect complement to the Slip-On. Made from high-grade austenitic stainless steel, the Link Pipe Set includes left and right pipes as well as a central catalytic section. Each pipe contains a 200 cpsi catalytic converter, striking a balance between improved performance and controlled emissions for closed-course driving.
This setup is not just about numbers; it delivers a carefully tuned resonator that creates a deep, rich tone without drone. The sound has been engineered specifically for the LT2 engine, ensuring that every note enhances the Corvette’s natural character. The weight savings are equally impressive, cutting more than 43 percent compared to stock. Combined with the Slip-On, the Link Pipe Set transforms the C8 into a sharper, lighter, and more responsive machine.
Installation is made easier with included stainless steel hardware, though ECU remapping is mandatory when fitting the Link Pipe Set. Designed exclusively for closed-course use, this upgrade is aimed squarely at enthusiasts who want every possible advantage from their Corvette on track day.
