You might want to swap out to a GT4 Akrapovic setup.

Hacking an Evo X pipe is the quickest way of eliminating it's bonkers resale value.

Sell the akra get an Eisenmann, then rebuy the akra.

Any midpipe will work as long as you have the adapters for the Akra muffler.

I've successfully tigged grade 2 2.375" titanium tubing to akra and it's lasted and hasn't cracked. I'd recommend cutting the cats at the welds for a straight shot replacement

Just wondering if anyone here fit with akra mufflers with catless x pipe . If yes, which x pipe will fit ? Some of the x pipe like armytrix will not fit because of the connection point.

none. you need the adapters.

the akra xpipe is designed to go with the akra rear- its just a straight coupler.

other xpipes and rear sections have the bulb couplers like oem so you can use them with a variety of setups.

they are no longer in production and they don't come up for sale very often. your best solution is a custom made adapter from a local exhaust shop.

PEXT002 is the part number for the adaptors. You can still find them, I recently purchased them and just looked and there's still two available stateside. Check your local suppliers.
