Dinan Exhaust w/ Fabspeed sport cat sound?

Anyone have a Dinan Exhaust with a Fabspeed sport cat?

I have yet to find any video clips of this set up and am super interested in what it sounds like.

Also curious about how it looks on a BSM car since the tips are black.

Would really appreciate a video of the car revving a bit. Pretty please.

UPDATE 5/18

Big thank you to @rich8102 and everyone else who contributed

Cold Start:



Sport +



traction off



Sport + 2nd gear fly by



traction off drive by 2nd gear



sport + downshift 3 - 2



Revs (comfort, then sport +)

I'm not sure if this helps, but it's a cheaper option...
I have the sport cat with dinan resonator delete and stock exhaust.
Cold start is loud as shit, but otherwise it sounds amazing. It's like a whole different car.
You can hear the turbo spool, the burble is amazing, in "traction mode" it sounds like gun shots going off when the engine revs down. I love it.

Video clips of exhausts are a poor representation of actual sound produced. You should hear it in person in order to make a decision. I think it's the single best component Dinan makes for the M2, both in sound and aggressive visual aesthetics. The black oversized tips coupled with BSM and black diffuser looks sinister.

Ugh, i know it's not ideal. I'm just too far north of you Philly/West Chester guys to casually swing by and have a listen. I'm hoping a video clip will at least give me an idea of what to expect though. I know it won't be a PERFECT representation but it will help either way.

This is my current set up (without the Dinan muffler) and i think the video is pretty spot on compared to how it sounds in real life:

Too me the Dinan tips look like they stick past the rear bumper. Is this true? I really prefer the exhaust tips flush with the rear bumper.

Mine are flush. Looks great. BTW I do have videos on my phone of cold start, revving in comfort and sport +. I just dont want to hassle loading them to YouTube. I'll forward them to someone's phone if they like. Feel free to post if you want to.

My cousin posted this a few months ago. It's only the Dinan exhaust and intake. No sport cat or stage 4 yet.

That seems pretty tame compared to having the sport cat & res delete.
