WTB Exhaust System

Hey guys, I have a 2008 w204 c350 and I'm looking to buy an exhaust.
please send over any suggestions, or offers. Open to any exhaust.
A few that i have been looking at are magnaflow, eisenmann, meisterschaft etc... I wanted a full cat back so also looking for n x-pipe.

Thanks

if you want to save around a grand, get a magna flow xpipe i believe its the 2.25 one, and magna flow race mufflers, or magnaflow x-pipe and secondary cat delete

I've been searching around and i know alot of people do that but dont you feel in terms of sound quality its a little bit more choppy? If i am able to find a good used full system i might be able to get it for around $1200. Do you think a used full system is a better idea?

Going a xpipe only will not sound choppy. Trust me as people ask what kind of aftermarket exhaust I have on the car and they cant believe it when I only say it is just an xpipe. No drone, not raspy and choppy. You wont get the civic sound. It sounds close to a G37 actually.

Just the x pipe wont sound choppy but i dont feel like it will make much of a difference compared to the stock exhaust. I want something that is able to give the car a mean sound with very low to no drone. People have suggested the x pipe with resonator delete and a new muffler but i dont think it will give as good sound quality as a full system like the meistershaft? but then again the system for the car is very expensive

with the price range you're looking for, you're going to take a loss somewhere. I have an x-pipe resonator delete, secondary cat delete, and magna flow race mufflers. Yes it has drone, but it goes unnoticable once you play music. This set up is a lot cheaper than the meisterschaft. But if you were to splurge on the meistershaft you probably wouldn't have the drone.

Im starting to consider a magnaflow xpipe, magnaflow mufflers, resonater delete, and second cat delete just like you have. Would you mind posting a video of your exhaust sound? i want to hear the sound from a car that has everything done that i want before i make all of the purchases.
