Tune ML550 exhaust to sound like a Ferrari?
Can you tune a ML550 exhaust to sound like a Ferrari? Love the sound, can't fathom the price tag!

Will NEVER happen with any kind of exhaust systems even if you're able to take the exhaust system off the Ferrari and put on your vehicle somehow.
There's a lot of variables that goes into an engine that determines its own unique sound such as # of cylinders, cylinder banks arrangement (i.e. 60-V6, 90-V6, Straight 6, Flat 6, 60-V8, 90-V8, Straight 8, 60-V12, Flat 12, etc.) compression ratio, valve configuration (i.e. 2, 3, 4 or 5 valves), Flat plane or cross plane crankshaft, cylinder firing order, camshaft spec (lift, duration, overlap, lobe separation angle), exhaust headers design (4 into 1, Tri-Y, etc.), exhaust system (true duals, H-config, X-config, 2 into 1, and so on...
The exhaust sounding of a particular engine is almost like its signature. It's unique.
I have 12 cylinder and I just know that there's no exhaust system that would even make mine sounds like a Ferrari due to how MB designed their engines.
