Description
The Takeda 2-1/2 Inch 304 Stainless Steel Axle-Back Exhaust System with Black Tips is engineered to enhance exhaust flow, improve throttle response, and deliver an aggressive yet refined exhaust tone for the Hyundai Kona equipped with the 1.6L turbocharged engine. Designed for performance-focused street driving, this system combines dyno-proven power gains with premium materials and precision engineering.
In in-house testing, this axle-back exhaust system produced gains of up to +6 horsepower and +6 lb-ft of torque, improving acceleration response and overall engine efficiency. The optimized exhaust design reduces restriction and allows the turbocharged engine to breathe more freely.
Constructed from mandrel-bent 2.5-inch 304 stainless steel tubing, this system delivers excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature durability, and long-lasting performance. The precision-bent tubing ensures smooth exhaust flow while maintaining structural integrity under demanding driving conditions.
An acoustically tuned expansion chamber is integrated into the design to produce a deep, aggressive exhaust tone while minimizing unwanted resonance. This tuning provides a balanced sound profile suitable for both daily driving and spirited performance use.
The system is finished with dual 4.5-inch diameter black 304 stainless steel exhaust tips, delivering a bold, modern appearance with a premium performance aesthetic. The design enhances the rear styling of the vehicle while maintaining durability and corrosion resistance.
Engineered using advanced computer-aided design technology, the exhaust system ensures precise vehicle-specific fitment. Factory-style flanges and OE-style exhaust hangers provide a secure, direct bolt-on installation without the need for cutting, welding, or modifications. Full 100% MIG-welded construction ensures maximum strength and long-term reliability.
