W204 C280 with PIECHA QUADRO exhausts setup

Hi all,

After reading over endless threads on W204 exhaust modifications and discussing with a few of MBWorld forum members on their thoughts about their mods, I've finally taken the plunge to go ahead with the exhaust modification: PIECHA QUADRO + carbon fiber diffusers

I'm really happy with the result:
- Exhaust tone has a more full or deeper sound to it and it's not too loud.
- Transition between each gear is much smoother than before.
- Car pick-up feels quicker and more crisp.

I'd like to thank each and everyone of W204 owners on this forum for their advices!

Looks stellar!!

What did that set up set you back?

How is the interior noise, under acceleration, inside the cabin?

As for the sound under acceleration, let's hope the sound clip will turn out ok~

I'll try to take some more photos and record a sound clip or two soon!

I just spent about 25 min doing a less than half *** job of dynomatting extreme my trunk (specifically the area where the spare is) and it reduces internal noise quite a bit. The trunk area is paper thin and allows for sound to pass through quite easily.

1/4 ***? hahahahahhahahah

Never thought of Dynomat in the spare bay. Good way to keep the sound out?
