Everyone keeps threatening to buy Advans's Remus muffler...
but so far I don' think it's sold...
they don't come up used often and not many mufflers fit the coupey.

U want it loud? remove the muffler and go straight pipe. (If loud is all your after) If you do straight pipe you'll lose back pressure and loose some power as well. But it'll accomplish what you're looking for, LOUD.

There isn't one that fits exactly, they have a shorty muffler and you have to buy the tips and have them welded on...and it would be too loud. I know because I almost went that route, looked at the whole fitment issue and decided against it, held out for a used Remus.

Why not the Remus from Advans? Assuming it's not sold...

A used Remus doesn't come up often. I got lucky and got one just so and love it.

The only aftermarket mufflers that actually fit a coupe are Remus at like $800 +
and the Supersprint at over a grand. Anything else is just a cluge.

Or just drill some holes in your stock muffler...

So not repping Advans as much as I can't understand why it isn't sold like yesterday.

Remus mufflers aren't that much, maybe $400-500. I had a Renntech muffler made by the same company, Sebring and it wasn't all that louder, maybe if you stood by the exhaust it had a nicer sound but probably not what you want.

Get a generic glass pack muffler, they sell them on ebay for cheap in stainless, looks good, are small and find a muffler shop that will install it. You'll probably pickup about 5HP with a glass pack compared to a baffled muffler like Remus.

get an e-cutout welded right after the stock header and gut your main cat converter

DMH performance makes good cutouts...

Now if you can get your car to sound like this then that's way better than "LOUD"

This sounds real good IMO

This is what the guy said it is.

custom build. 76mm pipe cat back. 1 Endmuffler with 76mm inlet and 2x63,5mm outlets.

Anyone know how much this would cost?

Wow, That sounds awesome. How can I get my C280 V6 to sound like that?

Why does the video say W203 C350? Isn't the 350 a W204?

Same engine different body.

IC... thanks for clearing that up.

Do you happen to know the difference between the 2006 V6 on my C280 vs C350 yours?

C280 - 3.0 V6 228 HP and 221 TQ - 0-60 7.53

C350 - 3.5 V6 268 HP and 258 TQ - 0-60 6.29

Also the 280 I believe never came in sport but the 350 did.

Any Mercedes can be made loud by installing a nice Tartan Plaid seat insert set. Just look how loud this 930 Porsche is in factory trim.
