Reading the reviews, I find it even harder to justify dropping that kind of money on the Akra system. It's gorgeous and the engineering is definitely excellent. Fit, finish, everything looks great, but the price on that system, at least to me, is a joke. It seems to me to be a classic case of BMW tax and not actually a valid cost due to parts/materials. The fact that the exhaust adds little to no power is also difficult to get past, though that's more a result of the OEM system being so well-engineered. Other exhausts won't add much power either.

I don't want to sound like I'm being negative because it looks like you're really happy and that's awesome and all that matters, I just wanted to put in my 2 cents. Maybe I'm trying to make sense of it and if you've got the money to drop on something like the Akra system, then that's awesome, but I still have a hard time getting it up to spend that much.

Enjoy though and thanks for sharing your experience with the product!
