Akra centre pipes with /// performance exhaust
Hi
Is anybody running the above combination? More than any power gain I am interested in what it sounds like. I want to replace the old OEM middle section with Akra and add to the existing /// performance exhaust which I like. An exotic sound for an ///3. I am considering this combination with a tune, and would appreciate any feedback or experience to help me make a decision. Thank you guys!

Any HFC or catless x-pipe set up paired with the MPE is going to result in a ton of rasp. If you do a search, there are some videos. I remember one in particular where someone put Turner test pipes with a MPE and it didn't sound very good at all.

Save your mone & forget the Akra Center section (~2.5k). There are several other options that do the exact same thing for less money:

The reason I mentioned Akra was because I was under the assumption that it complemented the ///PE well and didn't give any rasp. I would take any mid pipes that will not mess with ///PE note which I think is unique for the car and stands out amongst other aftermarket products.
Thank you for your advice ... taken on board

Sorry, I stand corrected. Did not read the comments just the tittle.
