McLaren P1 Exhaust Upgrade for Unmatched Power and Sound
The McLaren P1 isn't just a car — it's a statement of engineering dominance, performance art, and cutting-edge innovation. But even perfection can be pushed further. For owners who demand more roar, sharper response, and an unmatched driving experience, a high-performance McLaren P1 exhaust is the key to unlocking your hypercar's full potential. At P1 Motorsports, we specialize in delivering motorsport-grade exhaust systems for elite vehicles like the McLaren P1 — tailored to boost performance, enhance sound, and elevate your overall driving thrill. Our exhaust upgrades are built to match the DNA of this hybrid supercar, blending precision with purpose. Even though the P1 was born from McLaren's track heritage, its stock exhaust system is designed with regulatory compromises in mind. Enthusiasts who crave a more visceral experience often turn to aftermarket solutions for key benefits: The stock exhaust notes of the P1 are refined but can be underwhelming to some drivers. A custom exhaust system delivers an aggressive, raw, and high-pitched tone that reflects the car's 900+ horsepower capabilities. Whether you're cruising the streets or tearing down a track, the growl of a well-crafted exhaust makes a powerful impression. P1 Motorsports offers titanium and Inconel exhaust options that are significantly lighter than OEM systems. Shedding weight, especially from a rear-mounted component, can improve handling and acceleration — even in a hypercar this advanced. While the McLaren P1 already delivers eye-watering speed, a high-flow exhaust improves turbo spool, reduces backpressure, and unlocks hidden horsepower. Paired with a proper tune, gains in torque and throttle response are immediately noticeable. A custom exhaust system isn't just about sound or power — it's also a visual upgrade. Burnt titanium tips, carbon surrounds, and bespoke outlet configurations allow owners to personalize their P1's rear profile with a race-inspired look. At P1 Motorsports, we don't just install parts — we elevate performance. Our team is driven by a passion for motorsports engineering and an obsessive attention to detail. Every exhaust system we recommend or design for the McLaren P1 is based on real-world testing, track data, and customer feedback. We have hands-on experience working with McLaren hypercars. From bespoke installations to custom tuning support, our technicians understand the unique dynamics and requirements of the P1 platform. Whether you're in the U.S. or across the globe, we provide remote consultation, video inspections, and shipping options for P1 exhaust kits. And if you're located near one of our certified installation partners, you can expect white-glove service from start to finish. We work with globally respected exhaust manufacturers such as Akrapovič, Ryft, Frequency Intelligent, and custom in-house systems — offering full compatibility, durability, and dyno-tested gains. Every product we carry is tested for the P1's hybrid platform to ensure safety, performance, and longevity. When you choose P1 Motorsports for your exhaust upgrade, you're not just buying a part — you're investing in a performance transformation.

McLaren W1 to debut at Goodwood Festival
McLaren Automotive is set to showcase its '1' car lineage with the global public debut of the McLaren W1, along with McLaren P1 and F1 at the upcoming Goodwood Festival of Speed in the UK. The W1, displayed for the first time at 'McLaren House', features a 1275PS V8 hybrid powertrain and active aerodynamics, including 'Formula 1-inspired' ground effect aero technology. With only 399 examples available for customer specification, all of which are already allocated, the W1 joins the ranks alongside the McLaren F1 and McLaren P1. It is commemorating the 30th anniversary of its win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, with two distinctive events at the festival. The winning F1 GTR will make an appearance on the Hillclimb, driven by JJ Lehto, part of the original winning team. Additionally, the new 750S Le Mans, a limited edition of 50 units featuring a McLaren Special Operations (MSO) High Downforce Kit, will be introduced to the public. The track-only Solus GT, known for its 840PS naturally aspirated 5.2-litre V10 engine and sub-1,000kg weight, will return to the festival after its Timed Shootout Final win in 2023 and another hillclimb run with Mika Häkkinen last year. Furthermore, the 750S and Artura MCL38 Celebration Edition supercars, produced in a limited run of nine each, will participate in dynamic runs at Goodwood. McLaren is also marking ten years of its 'LT' cars, with LT models from the Heritage collection participating in dynamic displays. The 'Celebrate LT' initiative has been engaging the LT owner community globally. In April this year, Abu Dhabi-based CYVN Holdings completed its acquisition transaction of McLaren's Automotive business and a non-controlling stake in McLaren's Racing business. Last year, McLaren Automotive entered a partnership with Divergent Technologies to develop advanced suspension hardware.

Frank Stephenson and Tavarish Reveal One-Off McLaren P1 "EVO" Project
Summary Frank Stephenson, the original designer of theMcLaren P1, is teaming up with YouTuberFreddy 'Tavarish' Hernandezto create the McLaren P1 'EVO' — a one-off reinterpretation of the iconic hybrid hypercar. The project centers around Tavarish's personal P1, which was severely damaged during Hurricane Ian in 2022. Rather than restore it to stock, the pair is aiming to build the fastest P1 ever made, with the process fullydocumentedon YouTube for fans to follow. The P1 EVO marks Stephenson's return to automotive design after a hiatus since 2018, and the redesign amplifies the car's aggressive aesthetic. The revised body features a larger front lip, newly added front fender vents, reworked doors and a striking dorsal fin that extends from the hood to a dramatic rear shark fin. The car also features a roof scoop and futuristic aero-discs on its wheels. This bespoke build blends Stephenson's original design language with contemporary motorsport influences and ambitious performance goals. The final vehicle is expected to debut later in 2025 and stands as both a resurrection story and an evolution of one of the most iconic hypercars of the last decade.

YouTuber Tavarish and Frank Stephenson Team Up To Build Wild McLaren P1
YouTuber Tavarish and Frank Stephenson Team Up To Build Wild McLaren P1 originally appeared on Autoblog. When the Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1, and Porsche 918 Spyder hypercar holy trinity descended on the earth, nobody could have foreseen that one day, a heathen with a YouTube channel would be rewriting the theology of one of them with a completely new design and much more power. But that's what the YouTuber known as Tavarish is now setting out to do with one of 375 P1 hypercars ever made, and he's doing it with the help of the man who was in charge of McLaren design back then: Frank Stephenson. Together, they want to create a one-off they're calling the P1 Evo, but it'll be fundamentally different from the hybrid hypercar on which it's based, particularly when it comes to total output. On the surface, Tavarish might seem like a villainous devil, but he's saving a damned soul that was halfway to hell already. View the 3 images of this gallery on the original article The original P1 powertrain comprised the M838TQ 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V8 (the descendant of which swelled to 4.0 liters and became the M840T) and a single electric motor to produce a combined 903 horsepower. But with such an extreme exterior makeover for the P1 Evo, Tavarish intends to do some surgery beneath the skin, too, ensuring the bite matches the bark. He's fitting the bigger and more easily attainable M840T, likely salvaging it from a wrecked 720S or 750S. The turbochargers will retain their original frames, but larger wheels will help develop much more power, despite the loss of the electric motor. Tavarish is aiming for 1,400 hp, an increase of more than 50% over the original hypercar being channeled here. The idea is to make it faster than the 217-mph P1 or even the super slippery Speedtail, which has achieved 250 mph, and local resident Tavarish will prove it at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The design of the project has not yet been finalized, and it won't be the last such project by Stephenson, who says more custom car and motorcycle projects will be revealed later this year. frankstephenson Design (that's how it's stylized) has come up with several takes on a reimagined and much more hardcore P1, several of which have wings that appear as if they may hinder straight-line speed, but we don't know which will be settled upon. If all goes according to plan, the finished product will be revealed in November to the sound of angels singing in the church of tuners, the SEMA Show, before the record attempt sometime in 2026. However, things have not gone smoothly so far, and Tavarish has almost been brought to his knees many "Tavarish" Hernandez has been working on this P1 for years now, and understandably hasn't made much progress. He bought it on the cheap (if a price of a little over half a million dollars can be considered a bargain) after McLaren P1 #348 was caught in the corrosive waters carried inland by Hurricane Ian in early 2022. This is why the hybrid powertrain has finally been given up on, along with any hopes of trying to restore this flooded hypercar to its former value (between $1.35 million and $2 million). On the one hand, pious purists will preach that such a rare technological marvel being repurposed into something that will keep company with Liberty Walk Lambos is blasphemous, but on the other, Tavarish is keeping this P1 alive when others would have pulled the plug long ago, and with the original designer's blessing, no less. Moreover, he's setting real performance goals that will exceed (some of) those of the original car, so he's doing it as authentically as anyone could expect. Mad Mike certainly wasn't quite so faithful to the brand with his P1 drift demon, and McLaren didn't denounce his unholy hypercar, did it?
