C-Class X-pipe? Toronto?

Any loss in torque when you do this mod?
I am planning to do it on both my cars.

There was an arab kid driving a C300 racing in and out of traffic which was debadged and gold in color that had an x-pipe.
That **** was lucky I wasn't in either of my C or I would have spanked his C300 back to the middle east.

Winter shoes have been on for over 2 weeks now......

X-Pipe would be nice, but the quotes I have gotten, prohibit me from doing it.......the car is a lease and is going back next October, don't want to dump too much cash in to it....now if I could only find a cheap place for the X-Pipe.......hmmmm

close to 400 bucks installed.......

not the kind of coin I want to spend on a leased vehicle.....

I went to one shop, completely dead, all their techs were standing around, doing absolutely nothing, I offered them 250 cash, to do the Xpipe, they declined.....I guess it's better for them to stand around and do nothing, than install an Xpipe and make the establishment money.....go figure

I'm by bayview n Majormac and yep, it's way too cold. (very sensitive to the cold, i am suppose to be half way across the world now.. damn it)

Snow tires have been on for about a month now.. i think they were the only thing that kept me alive in the past few days since mine isn't 4-matic.. haha

wow, CL63? nice I want to get a ride, but i think with the 63, you should get staright pipes instead of an x, it sounds beastly and thunderous!

Gatekeeper, did you go to Zorros yet? they should be charging $170, unless you get unlucky like me and had to pay $270. Another way is to order a x-pipe online, I think there was some promotion a while back on the magnaflow ones and they were shipped for $80. btw, did you put on the viynl yet? I want to see your grill!

Went to Zorros,,,,,that is where they did not want to take my money, and they were more than content to stand around and do nothing, must be nice.....

I saw the ads for the pipe, but still need someone to do the install, so not really saving much, as the pipe here is not all that much more, it's the labour that is driving the price up

As for the vinyl, nope, ran out of time, and now it's cold, but if I get time, maybe during the holidays I might take the grill off, and spend a day doing it in the comfort of the basement, or I just might paint it, I figure if I do a descent job, the dealership won't say anything ?
