KLINE INNOVATION LTD

What KLINE INNOVATION LTD does

Kline Innovation Ltd is a Romanian-headquartered (Jilava, Ilfov) manufacturer of bespoke high-performance exhaust systems and carbon fiber aerodynamic components for supercars and high-end sports cars. The company fabricates exhausts from Inconel 625, 304 stainless steel, and titanium, with proprietary valvetronic technology that enables quiet cruising and aggressive track sound via OEM vacuum control or a wireless INCONEL BUTTON kit. Its product catalogue spans Audi, BMW, Bugatti, Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Nissan, Aston Martin, McLaren, Mercedes, Chevrolet, and KIMERA, plus F1-grade pre-preg carbon fiber wings, splitters, side skirts, diffusers, and exhaust tips.

The business operates on a made-to-order basis with quote-based pricing, non-refundable deposits, and non-cancelable orders once production begins; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Kline sells exclusively through an authorized global dealer network spanning 20+ countries (including UK, USA, Canada, Australia, China, Japan, UAE, South Africa, and across Europe), with the Romanian facility serving as primary manufacturing and headquarters. The company holds TÜV certification and ECE homologation enabling street-legal use in Germany, Switzerland, and other regulated markets, and is referenced as having 20+ years of exhaust manufacturing experience. Customers are primarily luxury and supercar owners and specialist tuners; the firm employs 11 people and runs no institutional funding rounds.

Key technical differentiators cited by the company include Formula One-grade Inconel 625 material (claimed to produce the world's lightest exhaust for Audi RS5 at 16kg vs. competitor 17kg titanium), laser scanning for precision manufacturing, and a proprietary 70mm 1D CLR X-pipe design. Notable commercial partnerships include EMC (Empire Motor Club, June 2020), Champion Motorsport, Import Hookup, Reinart Design, TopCar Design (co-development on the Porsche 992 Stinger GTR Limited Carbon Edition), RUF Automobile, and W Motors.
