Link to exhaust tips and other accessories from autoclass

2 x 76mm rounds.

See

http://www.remus.at/product.php?selM...=574&curMotor=

or just

Where in Sydney can you get it from as there is no dealer for Remus in Brisbane anymore ? Had a 2 x 90mm muffler on my WRX great sound and am looking to get one for the C200.

I can get it in Australias Best tyres in Sydney, but I believe you can also order one from www.carshine.com.au , they can send the muffler to you. I'm in the verge of getting an exhaust from my C200K sedan, can't get AMG cos they don't have one for my car, so Supersprint, Remus and a locally made exhaust are the only choices I have.

The locally made exhaust (Hi-Tech) claimed that he got 17KW gains at the wheels for C320 sedan!!.... He said that he dynoed the car.. He hasn't got a customer with C200K but he said that I should get more KW as the engine is supercharged . I already told him that I'm getting my exhaust from his shop this Saturday but I read quite a number of posts that changing the exhaust even from the catback won't get significant gain and now I'm having a second thought ....

that sure sounds fishy, did the exhaust shop give you a printout of the dyno report? or the name of the guy so you could speak with him? that sounds like way too much gain for only changing one part. also the stock exhaust is well made. i don't see a lot of room for improvement at least in the tubing. it is all mandrel bent, and gently curved. maybe the muffler is the sticking point, i don't know.

yeah that much increase from a muffler sounds maybe a bit high. When I had my Camaro I replaced everything from the headers back and I only got about 18hp increase, but i took off 2 cats too. you could mayb get 3-7 hp IF that much be installing a muffler. But I think most of us are looking for sound improvements. I still think there has to be a way to do it cheaper. Also you might want to look at having the resonator removed. From what I hear it gives the car a deeper tone. Your muffler shop should not have any problem doing that either

I haven't asked him whether he can give me the printout proof, I think he might get offended if I ask for one. He told me that if I don't get the result that I wanted then I can always put the stock exhaust since his exhaust is a bolt on.... I think what hes saying that I don't have to pay for the exhaust. I don't want to be in the position where I've already paid for the exhaust but after the dyno I don't get what I expected.....who knows... maybe after getting my money he couldn't care less ....

He also told me that he'll pay for the dyno before and after....now thats a plus. But the exhaust that hes selling is a bit too expensive, I'm sure that if I own a Honda or any japanese car (except WRX or 200SX) I can get his exhaust for 1/2 price than what he quoted me for the Merc..... And I also think that his muffler is a bit to ricey for european car....just my 2 cents...

Black230Coupe,

Is the Remus a simple bolt on muffler or will you need to cut the rear apron to have the tips clear? $590 for the muffler is not a bad price, when you consider all the other ones are even more expensive....I think the Eisenmann one is about the only one closest to that price. Supersprint, etc are %700 and up.
