actually, with the right system, you can do either set up on either Coupe or Sedan. Just be careful what set-up you use. Ask Mr. Wiedermann, what the CARLSSON quads would have done to his C32 AMG ? Some set ups actually lessen the HP and performance of the car. Some replica (eBay) set ups can actually ruin your car big time !

Talk to some techs, like at AUTOWERKS or RENNTECH or HARTON MOTORWERKS, they'll tell you the technicalities of exhaust systems and their compatibility with different type engines, and single / dual set ups in the rear.

read it before I logged off. Just a quick one.

Like I said before, I was just thinking out loud, and when there's someone else in the room, it's called brainstorming. Just throwing ideas out there and not all are going to make sense or be good, but anyone who's worked in a big company will know that by brainstorming, many GREAT ideas are formed.

I don't know but when I was raised we were taught not to call people Stupid or Dufus for having an idea. Times have changed....

Oh well now I'm past my 6000 mark. Couldn't resist posting. :p

So, do you know how the Weltmeiser Exhaust would affect a C320 sedan?

I really love this corporate idea....
"So if I buy a fake tip and lay it in my front seat , it will affect my muffler also ?"

in the words of TRUMP, if you were working in my corporation, I would just have to say: "YOU'RE FIRED !"

Congratulations on your 6000 Tijuana posts ! What happened to the "girl taking it in the face" Avatar ?? Would love to see that "full" picture...

anyway, see if you can get the specs from Weltmeiser on that specific exhaust, and see if they tell you exactly what the air flow schematics are.
Then take that info, and aks one of the reputable TUNERS around, and see what they tell you, based on experience and installations.
The ones I listed before, should be able to give a straight skinny on the different exhaust systems out there. Each one is different, so I personally wouldn't know the subtle specs. sorry for the vagueness...

just getting back from a Corporate Firing !!!

Only after he destroyed the company!!!!!!! No biggie to change the air flow Instead of getting the correct pipe to start with......Wow... All ideas are not good ones
And in my day we were taught that it is better to remain quiet and be thought of as a fool than open your mouth and confirm it.....

Her pic is only a PM away! You wouldn't be the first to ask for it.

I guess I'll have to ask around. The only other alternative, if there will be backflow problems, would be to get it and weld the muffler split shut.

can't wait !!

not saying there WILL be backflow problems with Weltmeiser, but do a little homework first. I've heard fairly good things about Weltmeiser, but don't remember if they referred to a C230K or a C320. If you talk to Randall, at the first TUNER shop I mentioned, he can give you the TRUE skinny on these exhausts, and what it will specifically DO or NOT DO for your car ! He knows what he's talking about. Let him know, I referrred you to him...

oogle asked me about my quad exhaust like last week sorry i couldnt post clips of it yet. but i told him about my exhaust sounds were cutting out at 3000rpms and that quickly faded. i think it was due to breaking in and such but other than that it sounds really nice i enjoy it alot. but i have to bow down to Wiedermann his set up looks too awsome with the actual mufflers on each side. props to u man

Where did you buy it? I'm looking for a place besides Performance Products.. They want $895 plus tax = $971 ish. Even after my discount it comes to about $800.. Still high to me............

i got mine through a local accessories store called razo wich in turn used performance parts and in turn i did spend the 971 with no discounts..
to tell the truth, this was a spontanious buy because my car was in the shop and i bought a body kit that i thought had the 2 openings for the quad exhaust and there were really not many choices. or at least any choices i liked plus i was on a time budget. this came closest. i originally wanted like square tips like the remus ones but they dont have the setup, either way this worked out really nice

aka Mother crow!... as you probably know, I had posted the comments before regarding the performance, power, etc, etc (base on AMG data, not mine).

The AMG exhaust is the BEST you can get for your car, performance wise, look wise... not so much about costs though... costs, it will cost ya... but it is the real thing!
