Whats up guys, i just recently bought my first benz!!! c300 sport 2011 got a great steal on it, and i am very content and happy with my purchase; However, i am considering adding an x pipe to the exhaust and a had a few questions.

Will it void my warranty??

Will it decrease Hp or Efficiency in anyway?

Will it sound ricey?

Thanks for your time guys and any comment is greatly appreciated!
LOOKING FORWARD TO MY C300 EXPERIENCE!

I would totally do it. Its worth the mod and the sound is really good. As for HP or Efficiency, I havnt noticed a difference in them. It doesn't sound ricey at all. I acutally had it on for a while before my parents found out I had one. It doesn't really sound like you have one until you floor it or go over 3000 rpm.

Here a sound clip of mine the day I installed mine

Sounds similar to the c63! wow and how much did it run you ?! i already bought the pipe after your suggestion and comment, btw thanks! and i got it for 96 dollars on Amazon but i see different quotes for installation and just wondering what you had yours done for?

Closer to a C63 but nothing really close haha, needs more work than an x-pipe for C63. I got mine off of Amazon as well. I went to a local muffler shop and they charged me like 50 buck; was about an hour work. Keep the old resonator btw.

Youtube "C300 X-Pipe"
Plenty of sound clips available.

Will it void your warranty? Only if the dealer can prove the X-pipe was the cause of your problem.

Decrease or Increase HP? No. X-Pipe is just for sound purposes.

Soo Im convinced but any recommendations on brand???
Magnaflow seems popular

Take a before and after video so really see (sound) the difference.

I'm installing mine in a couple day's! I'll make a before and after. But can anyone suggest any other mods I can make to enhance the appearance?

Dargofinch

did you have to remove the all exhaust to weld x-pipe ?

luc1f3r

No, but you do have to remove your signature image to install the x-pipe.

Dargofinch

then how do you do to have a nice and clean weld around pipes knowing you don't have a lot of space to weld around ?

Thanks in advance

I assume they do the bottom and then drop the exhaust to do the top.

Did you delete your secondary cats?

I can barely tell I have an X-pipe...mine doesn't sound like that
