Amazing job on the car! Tastefully done, yet aggressive looking.

Question: any drone with the Akra? Before DP's? After DP's? Still unsure about which exhaust to go with.

Thanks.

Yeah it's shocking how many people are lining up to drop $10k on wheels, guess there's too many people with too much time and money on their hands lol. I toured the HRE factory 2 months ago since theyre here in SD and they just dropped a million bucks on 2 more machines and he said they still can't keep up with their orders!

No drone with Akra alone, with DP'S (race catted) or anything else. It's a great setup.

Hunter keep me posted on what you pick and sizes. Definitely go with the 305s in the rear big improvement in traction then again they are new tires.

Dinan is not at all close to releasing a tune. People will question this but I know this for fact.

I have to agree with you Cold. Dinan does drag... here is a link to a vid noushy brought to my attention, it's a Dinan vid showing an M5 at the end.

Yeah, I saw the video but this cam straight from Steve Dinan. There is no "tune". Worked on a piggyback but not coming anytime soon. Rumors started here in Atl. about a Dinan tune coming out Oct. 1. so I asked a mutual friend of mine and Steve's and he asked him directly. For me, honestly, There will be bigger turbos, intercoolers, etc.-a very expensive pkg. He is second to none with this stuff and I would suspect that it will be an all around amazing suite of upgrades. Dinan is really the only one I will trust if and when they figure these cars out and crack the ECU to create an OBD or piggyback tune that the car is not smart enough to pick up.

So you're saying Dinan has worked on a piggy back application?

Yes. I believe so. Either that or just the ECU itself. I cannot remember exactly what was said but I know they have yet to have success in getting anything to work without issues.

I see. Well let's see what Eurocharged's tune adjustment will do.. hopefully when I go back to AMS it will be closer if not just over 600whp.... So Far Manhart's tune has the best proven results.

Hey guys, for those running catted downpipes Forum member Noushy and I have a better option for the O2 sensors. The stock ones are to short for the AMS downpipes. They will work but they will not clip in their factory clip locations which are the ideal places to run the wires because it's OE placement. Below I have a pic of 2 options. I went with the one on the left because it has insulation. The lines are long enough(approximately 6inches or so longer than our stock ones) to fit into the stock clipping locations so everything fits perfect. However the connectors aren't the same as the connectors on the sensors that come with our car so all you have to do is get a pin removal tool so you can easily remove and swap the connectors with the stock O2 sensors then just install. The downpipe area gets pretty hot so you want to run the lines in the stock clipping locations just to be safe and have an OE Type Fitment. Here is a pic with 2 options. I chose the one on the left and forum member Noushy is running the one on the right (he had installed his before the discovery of the one I am using) they both work fine and so far we both have no CEL.. so here you go:



Left: Bosch 16795
Right: Bosch 15167
