Yep! I got MBFinatic's C240 now... (About a year and 4 months now) His dad and me have been friends since 1996 I remember MBfinatic when he was about 2 or 3 years old... Now I got his old car... Time flies...
BTW, the C230 Kompressor my mother has in West Virginia came from MBF's dad also... Those guys really like there benz'
Anyway, that SuperSprint sounds great! I wasn't familiar with them but I can say I love this one!

JC

Ok this might be a really stupid question. But I just dont know. So, I went to the muffler shop to see about getting a new muffler. Wanted a little bit of a deeper louder sound. The guy told me one way I could get that sound with out having to cut my bumper for a new muffler was by removing the pre-muffler. Is what he calls a pre-muffler the same thing everyone here is calling a resonator? I dont think he was much of a Benz guy so maybe he didnt know the exact terminology, but are they the same thing? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I had a similar question.... I have an 07 230 ss. The exhaust shop said the best thing to do is a straight pipe from the resonator back. (basically a muffler delete) Does anyone think that'll be a problem with the police in los angeles? How loud is it gonna be? I want loud, but not wake the Jones' next door loud. lol

I was thinking someone would ask that lol, no prob ill snap a few shots of that but basically right after the resonant its splits into a Y drivers side runs more or less straight passenger side curves around the spare tire holder and exits the bumper. The shop used a small air powered saws all to cut the bumper....after the made a template and measured twice

Cutting the bumper is great if you're going for quads.
If you're sticking with single exhaust, just get the c32 AMG muffler. I have that with deleted resonator and secondary cats and it is definitely loud and sounds great. Has a nice deep sound and when I gun it, it doesn't sound raspy or ricey at all.
