Anaheim Drew.... you talkin' to me?

I guess I can sell you my stock single oval tip. It's not an AMG. It's just what came with the car stock.
We would have to wait until I get my AMG exhaust tips, whether I go with single oval or dual oval tips. Otherwise I'd be running around without an exhaust tip.

Anyway, I'd accept any reasonable offer. I shine up the chrome about every 2 weeks, so it looks pretty good.

e-mail me.
Thanks !

I don't have any AMG tips yet. A few replies back HARRIS posted that there are AMG single oval tips from S55 (part # 170-490-0427 / $US 190) and AMG dual oval tips from the SLK32...

he gave the part # for the single oval tips, but no reply on the dual oval tips.

I am leaning towards the AMG dual oval tips, but like you, cannot find the part # or anyone who is selling them !!! Anyone with info, please post ASAP !!!

thanks !

'02 C230K Coupe
It's labeled as "W203", would that mean it's not compatible with a coupe? If someone can confirm it's for a coupe as well I'll probably be bidding on it.

It's the sedan, which doesn't work on the coupe.

In Europe the COUPE is labeled as the "CL203" to differentiate from the sedan or "limousine" as they call it.

While the chassis for the COUPE and SEDAN are the same, many of the components are completely different, to include exhaust.

'02 C230K Coupe
Yeah, knew about the coupe "CL203" designation. Was wondering because sometimes people "generically" label parts W203. I guess I was wrong to assume Eisenmann would make a mistake like that though...

The Eisenmann exhaust sounds nice. Long time ago forum member (forgot who) posted videos of the before/after sounds, definitely noticed the increased bass of the exhaust note. It's either this, or maybe a custom exhaust setup.

(I'm not entirely serious about the custom exhaust, although maybe a "generic" euro-style muffler+custom piping may yield different results)

Exclamation W203 Carlsson quad exhaust set up

I had the diagram faxed to me today of how the Carlsson exhaust is installed. As you can see from the picture below, the installation is "similar" to the Lorinser exhaust (Lorinser's transverse pipe is installed directly into the muffler whereas Carlsson's version is installed into one of the actual exhaust pipes.

The Carlsson body is so sweet, still debating whether I should get AMG kit or Carlsson RS kit. Personally, I don't like the front RS bumper, but I don't know if AMG front will match the RS side and rear.

Mario?? To my knowledge Carlsson only makes 2 models of quad exhaust for the w203 sedan. All sedan models except for the c32 use 18 33 0100E the c32 uses 18 34 0101E. The coupe uses 18 33 0950E.

Talking W203 Carlsson quad exhaust

Mr. Anaheim_Drew:

I appreciate your comments. Another member asked me if I had ordered the entire Carlsson system... whelp?...nope I didn't...lol
Before of the C55's arrival, I had (and always wanted) to hae a quad exhaust, prefereably a true quad exhaust (though that is harder to find on existing vehicles out there) or a system with the Y split, like the C55 has



Problem is the lack of space on C32's... the only system that I had not seen was the Carlsson's set up... finally that I got the fax today I put that thought to rest..





In case other members were interested, and having the information available is that I wanted to share the information on the thread.

Costs of the Carlsson system goes along with the prices of the Lorinser kit (a couple of grand retail aprox).. that is for the system itself... it does not count labor for installation, cutting the right side of the bumper (normally a couple of hundred bucks for install and cut of bumper)

Cheers

Wiedermann

The location of the spare tire is centered on the c55, therefore a true dual exhaust (quad tip) can be fitted.
