Loudest/most aggressive mid pipe?

I’m looking for something to pair with my Akra evo, I can get away with something super loud since it has big mufflers

And recs? I think of IPE and MS, and others?

Also, is it known how Akras sound with headers?

Any "race" xpipe (catless primary and secondary) with resonators (or not) will make the akra as loud as you're gonna get. Never heard IPE F1 xpipe with akra rear, but imagine one would sound amazing. I have akra paired with testpipes on my E93 and love it.

What’s your insta? I’m running a custom titanium X pipe that’s a prototype. My favorite sound I’ve ever heard on the e92. Dm me on insta @hadidi_amg and I’ll send you some sound clips

I’d go with a BimmerWorld forward X catless but resonated xpipe. You’ll also appreciate the power gains especially the bump in low rpm torque when paired with a proper tune like Epic. I’m running that now paired with Supersprint F1 and it sounds great.

Sub2Speedhouse can make a catless non resonated X in either forward or standard X location. I am running a quad resonated version with a stock muffler right now and it is definitely loud under full throttle. I can imagine the full straight pipe is very similar to an Akra GT4 center section.
