that i don't know! my guy just basically put on a universal one that has many applications. they should both sound relatively the same. Assuming your engine is a 2.6L, I think? It should sound pretty good.

Edit: It's the 18.

2006 C230 6 speed
Wonder if you guys could help me out.
I own a 06 C230, got it a few weeks ago. So far i love the car, the C230 is a great ride when you don't need to go super fast. My one problem (more like a dislike) is the single exhaust tip. I have seen some pics on here of C230's with duels and wow what a difference it makes. Was wondering if you guys could give me a few links or point me in the right direction on this matter. not real interested in changing the sound as such but to have a duel setup would be sweet. I don't have the time atm to read all 110 pages + lol so i thought i'd just ask and hope for the best.

Thanks

On the top right hand corner of the page theres a thing that says "search this thread" click that and search for what ever your looking for and it should narrow up the results a bit

All you have to do is quickly search through each page. And see if they have pics. Each page might have a pic. I usually start with the first page and look at the first 10 or so then I skip every 5-10 after or I work from most recent and go backwards.

if you want it pretty loud go for it. I removed mine and its pretty loud and decided to buy some resonators to quiet it back down on normal driving and have a little roar when I go wot (wide open throttle)

You're gonna need to do some cutting most likely. You can salvage the OEM stuff and just weld it back on in the future.

Is the AMG C32 system is a direct swap, or does it require some mod at the rear bumper area ? (on a face lift 2005 C350 coupe) ??

Part Number A2034904821

This one.......

From what I've read on here, a sedan exhaust will not bolt up to a coupe. There's less room for the muffler if I'm not mistaken. Now if you could find a C32 coupe exhaust, you'd probably be set.

I put that number into EPC and I think it's for a sedan, but don't quote me on that. That's if I'm understanding the search results correctly! You might want to PM paqueras and see if he's willing to give you his VIN that could be used to look up the correct part. My EPC might not even pull it up because it's for NA cars I believe.
