Best sounding E82 N55 Exhuast setup?

As of currently I am running VSRF 3.5inch Catless DPs, stock midpipes with resonator, and custom muffler delete axleback.

I get an amazing sound when I get on throttle but I reaalllllyyy want a noticeable idle.

Also is there a way to tune out the rev limiter in neutral or anything for dct? whenever I rev in neutral 50% of what I hear is the whining/electrical sound from the engine bay and I'm basically straight piped...

And I also want to hear more turbo spool in general, I want to keep raspiness to a minimum and just really want an almost diesel- like sound.

What would you guys recommend? Custom straight single 3.5 inch turbo back w resonators? Idk I'm open to anything.

Maybe just upgraded turbos to spool louder??

I like loud, I don't care as-long as it's a good tone.

Fmic and intake will make the turbo louder, not an exhaust

You know that dual 2.5" pipes have a cross sectional area of 9.82" squared and a single 3" pipe is 7.07" squared right? so the dual pipes flow well over 35% more.

Good luck fitting that silliness in there, but not my car so you can put a diesel stack on it for all I care.
