Looks like the Akra exhaust only (mid pipes, muffler and carbon fiber tips) is selling for $8,500 to $8,600 delivered in the USA.

Yes. $6900 for exhaust and $1600 for tips. I'm waiting on confirmation for price of CF Rear Diffuser but expecting somewhere in the $1100 range.

Akra's page claims power and torque gains for this unit. Is anyone seeing documentation to back this up on their (not well organized) website?

It’s a great sound and a little weight loss mod. Did it to my X5M and would do that one over again. Didn’t gain any power based on Vbox accel rates. I don’t expect any power gains on the F90 either since it uses plus 3” pipe and with the muffler baffles open there should not be a pressure drop. M designs great flowing exhaust, just not optimum sounding exhaust.

I had the akra on my e92 M3. It produced solid gains, both torque and hp. I'm sure this M5 exhaust is primarily a sound mod - but Akra's own page claims torque and hp gains. I'd love to see their documentation.

(I think I saw you make a similar comment, about how well M exhaust systems flows these days, when we saw that the Eisenmann exhaust made literally no gains over the stock m5 exhaust. M is definitely upping its exhaust game).

Subscribed. I noticed the link mentions they’ll be offering carbon fiber mirror caps too!

I have one coming in a few weeks. Look at this option for it though. I havent seen it advertised anywhere. It appears to control the exhaust note. So after the exhaust button, I will then fine tune my exhaust note depending on what my day is going like. Its a bit crazy, but still sounds like fun nonetheless!
