anyone here running Akra slip on with dinan x pipe?

assuming adapters for slip on and prob a tune from ESS or something, is there anything else i need to buy?

ive only seen one video of a guy with dinan x pipe and akra slip on, hoping you guys have more to share (under load, accel, etc).

since theres not too much to compare from, i assume this is a better bet than akra in terms of slightly louder?

power and weight reduction should stay about the same between the two?

My buddy had this setup for a while. It sounded very clean and refined. He later upgraded to the Akra GT4 x-pipe which actually gave it a meaner/more sinister sound (very exotic). I think the Dinan is a good in between sound wise of the Evo x-pipe and gt4 It's just heavier.

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
