Testing Waters R107 Performance Exhaust kit
Just testing the waters to see if there is enough demand to justify producing a bolt on exhaust.
We at Leistung Autohaus have been producing performance exhaust kits for the older generation Mercedes, we recently finished up the w124 500E project.
The R107 platform was brought to our attention that there might be a need for such a kit.
Basic info if one were to be produced.
Being that the R107 is a very classic car tip configuration will most likely be factory style Turndown but using 2.5" pipes vs the stock 1.8" pipes.
we are open to suggestions...
Price is still subjective but it's safe to say that such a kit would run about $2300-2500.00 Manifold back w/o catalysts. Cat Back exhaust would be roughly $1500.00
So feel free to discuss if there is reasonable demand we can produce an exhaust.
Sound Examples of what can be expected.

Basic info if one were to be produced.
- 100% Bolt on from manifold back
- 100% Stainless Construction, including welds and flanges
- Test pipes will be included (cat's can't be offered due to varying local laws)
- 100% constructed in the USA with USA materials
- Performance sound with no drone inside the cabin
- Expect some performance increase typically 5-7% overall gains

Plenty of nut cases there that might be interested.
