For me sport plus + M Dynamic Mode bring up the sound of the exhaust.

Seems like akrapovic makes the exhaust louder at lower RPMS,giving it that perfect pitch.

Man, I need to hear this in person. I am really on the fence with this...for the price it better sound amazing considering the low HP gain. That's obviously in addition to the CDF tips

YES!!!! Looking for a christmas gift from the wife...Akra Evo sounds like a good one, but I want to hear it first.

@Rob///M5, when is the next Irv. C&C? I see the track day 12/15-16 but nothing in the forums about one in Dec.
