Mine has a SC but i still don't think it would sound as good as the V6's do. That's why i'm looking into buying an exhaust that would sound throaty and that rumbles but it's also not very loud inside.

Advans, do you have anywhere pictures of your car posten and if not can you post some? Would like to see how the car looks like?
Another thing guys. Those K&N green filters do they make any difference in noise or performance? And I found Tein Springs fro about $160 a set, should I go with them or should I just buy the H&R springs. I don't wanna go with the coilovers yet but eventually I will. I'm just afraid that the rear with the H&R springs is going to be too much for the PA roads. They suck. If you guys have any close up pictures of the rear with the H&R springs, i would appreciate it.

The Nippon ones also claim some mid power I guess because it builds up alittle pressure before the traps open. My main concern is to try to get my car alittle quiter, but if there are silencers that claim more power why not get those.
Remember I am not getting these these for power, it was just something I came across while looking for silencers. http://www.nipponpower.com/view.phtm...st%3A+Silencer

The Quietest Muffler?!
I am looking for a quiet muffler for my C230.I was going to get AMG muffler but I was told it could be bad for my engine and stuff.
I had magnaflow and I took it off, it was too loud for my taste
Right now, I only have my stock exhaust on the car and it is the one with the declining tips! The ugly one!
Any recommendations?Perhaps,anything that will look straight on my car and don't have to make my own valence.
Thanks.

The quietest muffler is the stock muffler. Just buy the tip from the dealership and you're set (cuz obviously, you're just going for the look and not the sound).

depending on which engine you have it could be bad for the car, or so i've heard. for example you could not throw a C55 exhaust on an I4 C230 Kompressor. has something to do with backpressure maybe???

But the C32 amg muffler is attached to the same engine (and I'm sure the exhaust piping is close if not the same) as the 320 engine and I wouldn't be surprised if the 240 and/or 230K SS engine. In that case, it really doesn't make sense why a muffler from a C32 would be harmful to the engine.

Secondly, check out SuperSprint exhausts (made in Italy and are works of art) Go to: http://www.supersprint.com/homeuk.htm I've had mine now for almost two years and love it. Yes, it's louder than stock or AMG but very, very, deep and at highway speeds almost totally unnoticeable. Not cheap, bu the good stuff never is...
