Putting Supersprint X pipe

Just wondering if its possible to put Supersprint X pipe on an M5 with Competition Exhaust. The car exhaust note is good, but not loud enough, I dont want to change mufflers, so I figured x pipe will make it a little louder, but not super annoying. Or it wont? 2 links are below (x pipe and clams to connect with stock pipes)

Any suggestions / recommendations / advice?

For the price, you're better off picking up downpipes. They will increase the exhaust notes and increase performance. X pipe won't increase sound as much as you think. It may not at all.

I would never pay that for an x pipe. Too many x pipes on the market for less.

Holy shit, who pays these prices?!?! You can get an x-pipe on eBay for $30 in stainless steel that will do the EXACT same thing.

That part is not an Xpipe.

I bought the complete SS system, DPs up to the axle with HFCs. With the discount I got from SS for the system, it worked out to getting the DPs for free. So I cannot complain about the price too much.

Supersprint needs to rethink their pricing.

Get Dp's.

I say the same thing to the GF when she sees a sale at the mall - a discount on grossly overpriced...is still overpriced. You're happy though.

I figured it was the best catted option at the time. So I was willing to pay a bit more. Now I want to go catless, so lesson learned.
