More sound out of my '16 M235?

Hey guys!

So recently I got some bolt ons installed alongside a JB4..

- CTS Downpipe
- VRSF Intercooler
- VRSF Charpipe

I also have the stock M performance exhaust system.

The catless downpipe definitely boosted the sound and the cold start sounds absolutely amazing.

I have the resonator and muffler as well.

I am wondering what can I do to improve the backfires and sound? Not looking for some riced out sound, but I definitely want more aggressive sound.

I've heard that the catless downpipe alongside a muffler delete sounds too raspy and drones a lot.

Any advice is appreciated.

PS: browsed pretty much all N55 exhaust videos on YouTube, really hard to hear from a phone speaker, was thinking if anyone actually had experience and advise to share.

I'm on extended warranty for 6 more years. That's actually the main reason I went towards the JB4. Less likely to be spotted if ever a warranty claim.

I've heard the Remus exhaust is a bit more aggressive then the mperformance one. Going to go with that myself as I currently have catless/muffler delete and there is too much drone, although the cracks and backfires are crazy. Not sure the switch would be worth it though just for sound.
