Dinan exhaust deal. Dealership

[Stargunz]

Trying to find a video with a sound clip of the dinan exhaust.
Is it bad or only marginally better?
I'm trying to find the details - got the dealership ready to install exhaust + labor $4000

I'm looking for performance gains and sound
Also visually wider tips and chrome delete - black tips.

Actually anyone know what size tips are the stock pipes? And size of the dinans?

Akropovic seems to have the best exhaust but asking about $8000 double the cost, is that because of the down pipes included?

Thanks team!!

Won't get much performance gains from an exhaust upgrade. If you want a sound boost without the cost of those exhaust might I suggest the AWE car back exhaust. It will also give the visual appearance you are wanting

Stock tips I believe are just shy of 85-6MM vs DINAN which is 90MM so you wont see too much of a difference. If you want an upgrade, I recommend 102MM which closes up the gap very nicely and gives the car a very aggressive look.

@ Akropovic is a full cat back system Titanium system and does not include downpipes.

I would suggest going a different system. $4k for an axel back system is not worth the $$$. You can find Eisenmann catback system for around $3500 and a ton more axel backs for cheaper that sound great. There are two right now that are axel backs in classifieds going for $2k with 102MM tips. Just get them powder coated black and you have a bad ass system. If you want louder, there is a 2M old RPI catback system that sounds amazing but is loud for some. He wants $1500.

Your not going to see huge power gains on any system.

AWE axle back is under 2k. Just sayin
