Default Mina Gallery Axle Back & SuperSprint X-Pipe Mid Section on ‘09 XKR

I have had the Mina Gallery axle back set up on the car for a while, sounded good, sporty, not too loud. But it had a bit of a drone in the 1500-1900 or so rpm range. I paddle shift in sport mode all the time so it was easy to avoid cruising in that range but in drive it seems to love being in that range.

Today I installed a SuperSprint x-pipe mid section (after a almost 2 month wait for it to arrive). Match made in heaven! Drone is gone, completely, the sound is the same but more present. A little more growl but not obnoxious, cruise is still nice and quiet. Get on it and you hear a nice sporty euro sound back there.

A little more growl, no more drone, a total win, very pleased!!

The Mina tips look great back there too.

After:


Full system:



Well worth it for the results!

(yes, I did reinstall the tunnel brace after taking the photos)

Will see if I can make a decent video, never had any luck doing that. I’ve seen youtube exhaust video clips and they all seem crappy to me.

Any codes coming up?
i want todo my exhaust but have been scared out of most muffler shops because I’m told the computer will read the flow and back pressure different from stock and subsequently set off codes

No issues whatsoever.
