Any w208 or w209 clk55s with c63 mufflers?


Im curious what this will sound like. Its the closest thing to my car and noone in the w202 section has done this mod...

Ive seen them on w211s but thats a different exhaust setup plus its longer so Im sure the sound will be a little different no?

Sound has a lot to do with the crank angle, engine displacement and degrees, a ton of other things.. I know you're probably hoping for the wrap sound that comes from a CLK/C63, but just the muffler isn't going to do it.... If you search a bit, people have tried.

PJmak

You are right.

It probably wont sound like a c63 but it should sound different. Ive heard it on the w211 m113 and it sounded really nice.

Do you have just dual tips? Even on the CLK63 the verts had double and coupes had quad. That means you'll have to find someone who bought a CLK63 vert muffler(or rigged up a single muffler from a coupe). Certainly a tall order.

What kind of mid pipe do you have?

PJmak

Yea I just have dual tips.

Right now the exhaust is stock except for removed resonator. Not sure what the pipe diameter is on these cars. Proba ly same thing as 208/210 amg

Im pretty sure the exhaust is completely identical to a w208clk.

I would start by asking the CLK63 vert guys to post pictures of their exhaust, as apparently there are 0 on the internet somehow. Then, go from there mimicking that.

But as already stated, you're dealing with a completely new engine family, and down over 500rpm's.

My next exhaust setup will be tig welded long tubes, cat deletes, res delete, to dual c63 mufflers for the back pressure. Hoping it sounds good as well. I'll post clips once it's finished within the next month as I have a lot of other things going on with the car right now as well.

not bad for a 2.3 litre engine sounds like my car a bit.

I like the sound from that video clip. Was that a complete c63 exhaust on your car? Or just muffler swap?

secondary cats and the middle box removed with clk63 back box
