The optional Akrapovic Sound Kit enables owners of selected Akrapovic
car exhausts to control the sound of the system from the cockpit of
their machine. Using Akrapovic technology, drivers can easily switch
between the quiet mode and a sportier sound. With the use of a receiver
to drive the actuators that open or close the valves at the end of the
exhaust system, drivers can use the Sound Remote Controller or the new
smartphone app (for iOS and Android) to regulate the valves. The flap
control is intended for the Abarth 500 / C series from 2008-17, as the
Akrapovic exhaust system suitable for it includes a closed link pipe.
Thus, the sound can be improved by installing the Akrapovic flap
control, but the homologation is no more valid. The Akrapovic exhaust
system for the 595 series from 2012-20, on the other hand, includes an
open link pipe. This exhaust system is therefore homologated with a
continuous open sound & the installation of the Akrapovic flap control
only contributes to drive the exhaust system also with closed flap. In
the case of the Abarth 595 series, the flap control is homologated.
