Bolt ons, Any effective intake/exhaust setups?

Hello. I'm not really a upgrade performance type that much, but I don't mind doing bolt on stuff in the future. Any good price effective intake/exhaust setups? Doesn't have to be the loudest either just better than stock is fine by me. P.S. I'm still under warranty, and I wanna stay that way! lol

AKra full titanium exhaust ... they also have it as an M-performance part with BMW M specific tips so no warranty issues ... PRICY AS HELL ... but worth the

turner muffler delete is a cost effective option .... I have never heard this as I did the Akra and Dinan and Supersprint catless downpipes ... 720 hp and 680 ft lb is reported for this set up

Dinan performance engine mods and intakes ... no warranty issues ... also a bit pricy but REALLY NICE STUFF

Many things out there ... all depends what you want to spend

welcome to the addiction

I put the MPE/AKRA on mine and it sounds great,have been contemplating adding downpipes but don't want the cell light coming on.Am not into tunes which would get rid of it.I think I may be able to get a delete-r from AKRA which would delete the cell light.

I've heard the akra with catless DPs and it sounds a lot more aggressive, you also hear a lot more of the turbos spooling. Unfortunately the CEL is a tradeoff for the sound experience.

YES THE AKRA WITH CATLESS DOWNPIPES HAS A VERY INTOXICATING SOUND ... and the turbo spool ... BUT THE CEL IS A MYSTERY IN MY EXPERIENCE

In my case the CEL was on half the time and off the the rest when Akra and catless down pipes ... that was last summer when we took delivery of the car and went catless down pipes and akra

This summer we have done the Dinan Stage II with intakes and it is off most of the time and then I'll see it on for about 100 km after a fill up ... then its off again till my next fill up. But it doesn't turn on right after the fuel fill up ... about a day after

Had one of these fitted on the M3 to delete the cell light when I put downpioes on, a nice piece of kit.
Didn't think they done one for the F06 F12-13 with the exhaust having vacuum flaps.

Thanks everyone! If I did do something I'd probably just go with a Dinan setup.
