This pocket rocket of legendary fame is proof that the best things come in small packages. Its turbo engine and small external dimensions make the 500 a truly fun car to drive, and it’s also suitable for a turn around the racetrack. To make it even faster, even more responsive, and with a more striking look and sound, Akrapovic has developed a completely new exhaust system for it.

The Slip-On system can be purchased with a set of impressive exhaust tail pipes made from titanium or an equally impressive set made from carbon fiber. Choosing either of these sets gives the Abarth 500 a completely new look and adds power on the street. The 115 mm tail pipes will definitely stick in the memory of any driver who sees the Akrapovic 500 zoom past. This is also true of the sound; selecting the optional wireless kit for operating the exhaust valve makes the sound significantly deeper, tastefully louder, but still completely without undesirable droning. The Akrapovic engineers have found the ideal compromise once again. With the simple push of a button, the wireless kit offers a choice between normal volume and a louder sound, adding further excitement in the drive to set record times on the track. Faster times are also possible because of the power increase, which is an additional three horsepower and five Nm (four lbs-ft) of torque. The Akrapovic Slip-On system also reduces the overall weight by three kg (6 lbs.). The gas flow is optimized, the backpressure reduced, and the Abarth with the Akrapovic system is outstanding for tuning and modifications. It has more power available from around 2,500 rpm all the way to the top. These specs apply to the system with the optional wireless kit and open valves. The system without the wireless kit has a point-welded block in the link pipe that prevents bypassing the muffler. Please note: when the bypass is unblocked, the system is no longer EC Type approved. Installing the Slip-On system is simple; the system fits perfectly onto the remaining components. The Slip-On system fits the 500 and 500C versions, as well as the Esseesse kit.
