This exhaust system was developed to mark the manufacturer’s 30th anniversary. It is particularly notable for the choice of materials used, with a system built from titanium and Inconel as well as ceramic matrix composites (CMC). This
ultra-lightweight material can withstand temperatures of 1,000 degrees
centigrade. The use of lightweight materials reduces the weight of the
system by 28.8 per cent (7.7 kg) compared to the original component. The system was made in a limited run of 30 pieces.
Statement by the Jury
This exhaust system blends high-tech materials and technology in a fascinating way to facilitate huge weight reduction and optimised performance.
