The Only Bolt-On Titanium Exhaust That Transforms Your C8 Corvette Inside and Out
The Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3 Slip-On Line (Titanium) is engineered exclusively for the 2020 to 2025 Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray and delivers a racing-grade exhaust upgrade without touching your catalytic converters or cutting a single pipe. Developed alongside Akrapovic's MotoGP and World Superbike race programs, the S-CO/TI/3 replaces the factory mufflers and link pipes with precision-welded titanium components, dropping 13.9 lbs from your mid-engine layout and producing a signature 99 dB/A tone that makes every gear change an event. Dyno-proven gains of 4 HP at 6,000 rpm and 5 lb/ft of torque at 3,400 rpm mean the S-CO/TI/3 is not just a sound upgrade. It is a performance upgrade built to the same specification as the exhaust systems found on factory race cars.
Key Features
- Hand-Welded Titanium Construction - Each silencer and link pipe is hand-welded from aerospace-grade titanium at Akrapovic's Slovenia facility, providing maximum heat resistance and corrosion immunity for a lifetime of track and street use.
- Significant Weight Reduction - The S-CO/TI/3 weighs only 4.9 kg (10.8 lbs) compared to the stock system's 11.2 kg, removing 6.3 kg (13.9 lbs) from the rear of your C8 for improved weight distribution, throttle response, and handling dynamics.
- Dyno-Proven Power Gains - Independent dyno testing confirms a maximum power increase of 3 kW (4 HP) at 6,000 rpm and a peak torque gain of 7 Nm (5 lb/ft) at 3,400 rpm on the 6.2L LT2 V8.
- Signature 99 dB/A Exhaust Note - The Akrapovic tuned muffler chambers produce a deep, aggressive exhaust note at 99 dB/A that eliminates the flat, muted drone of the stock system without becoming unlivable for daily driving.
- True Bolt-On Fitment - The S-CO/TI/3 uses factory mounting points with supplied hardware and clamps. No cutting, welding, or tuning required. Installation takes under one hour with basic hand tools.
- Brushed Titanium End Caps - Laser-etched Akrapovic branding and brushed titanium tips provide a factory-finished appearance that complements the C8's aggressive rear styling.
- OEM Compatibility - Compatible with both coupe and convertible body styles. Works with NPP dual-mode exhaust equipped vehicles when muffler bypass is used with the factory valve system.
- Lifetime Warranty - Backed by Akrapovic's lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, giving you long-term confidence in your investment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3 fit the 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 Corvette C8 Stingray?Yes. The S-CO/TI/3 Slip-On Line is designed to fit all model years of the C8 Stingray from 2020 through 2025 with the 6.2L LT2 V8 engine, including both coupe and convertible body styles.
Does the Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3 require tuning or ECU recalibration after installation?No tuning is required. The S-CO/TI/3 is a slip-on system that replaces only the mufflers and link pipes, leaving the catalytic converters in place. The factory ECU does not require recalibration for this system.
Will this exhaust trigger a check engine light on my C8 Corvette?No. Because the S-CO/TI/3 retains the stock catalytic converters and all factory oxygen sensors remain in their original positions, there are no conditions that would trigger a CEL on a stock C8 Stingray.
How much louder is the Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3 compared to the stock NPP exhaust?The S-CO/TI/3 measures 99 dB/A, producing a noticeably deeper and more aggressive tone than the factory NPP system. It delivers the classic Akrapovic rasp and crackle under acceleration while remaining civil at idle and during highway cruising.
Does the Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3 work with the C8's NPP dual-mode exhaust system?The S-CO/TI/3 replaces the factory muffler assembly. Owners with NPP valves in the link pipe section can retain factory valve operation with an appropriate link pipe configuration. Consult the installation instructions for NPP-specific guidance before installation.
How much power does the Akrapovic Corvette C8 Slip-On add?Akrapovic's own dyno testing shows a gain of 3 kW (4 HP) at 6,000 rpm and 7 Nm (5 lb/ft) of torque at 3,400 rpm on the stock 6.2L LT2 engine with no other modifications.
What is the weight difference between the Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3 and the stock C8 muffler system?The S-CO/TI/3 system weighs 4.9 kg (10.8 lbs) compared to the factory muffler assembly at 11.2 kg. This represents a reduction of 6.3 kg (13.9 lbs), which improves rear weight distribution and reduces unsprung mass for sharper handling response.
Is the Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3 legal for street use in all 50 states?The S-CO/TI/3 is designed for street use and retains the factory catalytic converters. However, California residents should review CARB compliance before purchase. The product carries a Non-CARB:N designation. Always verify local noise ordinances before use on public roads.
How long does it take to install the Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3 on a C8 Corvette?Most experienced DIYers complete the installation in 45 minutes to one hour using basic hand tools. A lift or jack stands are recommended for safe access to the underside of the vehicle. No cutting, welding, or modification to the chassis is required.
What is the warranty on the Akrapovic S-CO/TI/3?Akrapovic backs the S-CO/TI/3 with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, covering materials and workmanship for the life of the product.
Installation Instructions
- Allow the vehicle to cool completely before beginning. Residual heat from the factory exhaust can cause burns during removal.
- Raise the vehicle safely on a lift or jack stands with proper support under the frame rails.
- Loosen and remove the factory muffler clamps at the mid-pipe connection points. Retain hardware only if reusing OEM components.
- Disconnect and remove the factory muffler hangers by unclipping from the rubber isolators. Set the factory mufflers aside.
- Remove the factory link pipes by sliding them free from the mid-pipe flanges. Inspect the mid-pipe for wear or corrosion before installing new components.
- Slide the Akrapovic titanium link pipes onto the factory mid-pipe outlets. Align with factory hanger positions.
- Install the Akrapovic titanium silencers onto the link pipe outlets. Connect supplied mounting clamps and tighten to hand-tight at this stage.
- Re-hang the silencers onto the factory rubber isolators. Verify symmetrical alignment on both sides before final torque.
- Torque all clamps to specifications provided in the Akrapovic instruction sheet included in the box.
- Lower the vehicle and start the engine. Allow the system to heat cycle through idle for 10 to 15 minutes. Check all clamp joints for exhaust leaks after the first heat cycle and re-torque if needed.
