I'm currently thinking Wagner Catted DP.

Edit: see you said Supersprint. I do like that the DP has the flex piping (I have no idea if it makes a difference, but also why I'm leaning Wagner DP)

I was researching about switching out the secondary cats with Supersprint midpipes and the center exhaust. It looks like those should fit with stock exhaust and DP.
i have a really good setup written reply from supersprint vendor it is very detailed about exhaust downpipe setups can send u pm me e mail.

flex piping section is good for better alignment to turbo flange and vibration reduction than a hard pipe just like and why factory pipe has flex joint.

i had a AFE pipe with cat ,awesome, still said throw codes, why do i want a cat that will restrict anything , asked supersprint if cat they sell will throw a code? probally not epa compliant, but not validated?
has to do with catalytic cel count in cat for computer data input values, but down stream mini cats fabspeed can be installed in o2 sensor bungs , Fabspeed vendor, i need more info from real tuners.

kinda looking at Wagner intercooler also and intake hose tubing upgrades for turbo inlet tract first off as pressures will increase with tune and cheap plastic parts r cheesy cheap and failure prone at higher boosts

fresh turbo band and gaskets for down pipe too u might not want to delete much else it will be very loud,have not worked on right side much yet wear turbo is buried, yet gathering parts hoses and new o rings for service

BMW mech said E84 N55 procedure pop RF wheel off spray blaster on band bolt loosen band nut pop extension and socket with hammer it will come loose after lower brackets

my turbo band clamp is corroded as are those copper nuts on lower downpipe gasket flange also i am waiting for new copper nuts for that assembly 99 cents apiece prep for down pipe project dissasembly eventually

supersprint performance muffler 1500 from ecs spendy

supersprint downpipe handmade to order 900.00 5 week leadtime to build from italy plus shipping and customs 1 grand ECS

This Supersprint Downpipe is dope ! but expensive cat model even more! Top shelf Work hand made,

let me know what u find out im still researching Wagner intercooler fitment upgrades for E84 35I has OEM correct fittings on ends if it matters?

New Android 10 Auto head unit display factory CIC Nav upgrade next in feb.

looking at newest unlocked RK N55 E 84 info into flash ecu tunes, also?
