Did some digging and the shop seems to be "MB HOUSE"
Here is their instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mbhouse_toronto/
Here is their website with the pricing: https://www.mbhouse.ca/services/
Seems like to get the sound upgrade, it's $100 CAD which is not bad at all. They have some other coding available as well.

So I finally had the chance to drop off my car to get a custom exhaust made and we were able to look under to see what we can do. The shop owner recommended, true dual exhaust setup, which replaces the two mufflers/resonators in the middle then replace the stock mufflers to magnaflow mufflers. This is better than having your regular one pipe exhaust, the true dual will also give you some performance gain while having the loud or aggressive exhaust sound you want. I'm out for the week for a trip but the car going to be finished in like 3 days, so when I get back from my trip, I'll post the new setup and share it with you guys.
did you got your new setup?any video?

do you know which magnaflow muffer did they put on@?its slightly louder than stock or noticeable different? and hows the drone ?

Honestly no, all I know its a performance muffler. Its definitely louder than stock and yes there is a little bit of drone but that's expected. If you want a loud exhaust, its going to have drone no matter what. Although if you drive on sports plus and regular sports, there rarely any drone just cause your cruising at higher rpms. There are louder exhaust companies, I heard flowmasters are louder than magnaflows, might give those a try. Or just get the cats deleted and get a downpipe but if you live in states that require inspection yearly, please know the laws and consequences of deleting cats.

Yea, I paid $600 total and it sounds better than some of the aftermarket systems that cost like $1.2k+. With this setup I can easily change it by changing the magnaflow mufflers or the tips and when you do a cat delete and a ecu flash tune, it'll sound even louder. Since I have true duals on my car, I even got some gain out of it, never got the chance to dyno it though.

Need a little help here..
So took mine back to the exhaust shop to get the 1st mid resonator removed after the 2nd one was removed and the 2 back silencers were changed to a single muffler.
Turns out what I thought to be as a resonator is a cat with a sensor.
So I'm confused because I've read people here removing the two resonators in the middle when out of the two in my car one is a res and one is a cat with sensor.
So they didn't remove it knowing the sensor would trip a engine light therefore have advised to remap the car then get rid of the cat.
Any thoughts?

First, I would like to say I had done a muffler and resonator delete on my w205. So I did about 4-5 weeks of research on exhuasts, warranty, how it would sound after the work done, etc. before doing the deletes. One thing that was most apparent to me was that almost everyone that had done a muffler/resonator delete was complaining about drone. I deleted both rear mufflers and had the secondary resonator removed (there are two resonators on my car). I had initially just the two mufflers removed but it wasn't the sound I was quite looking for, so I went back and got the secondary resonator removed. I initially thought that the sound would be super loud and obnoxious, but it actually sounds a lot more time than I thought it would. The cold start sound isn't obnoxiously loud, but it does have a nice deep low tone and grumble to it, although once the car warms up the deep exhaust grumble goes away. It really isn't that loud.
Throughout many forums, people seem to be complaining about interior drone and how it unbearable, but personally to me I doesn't have that much drone. I personally listen to music around the medium to loud range when driving, and the drone isn't too bad. You will notice some vibration though. If you are on the throttle a lot, you'll probably notice the drone a little more around the 2k-4k range, where you'll hear the drone. But when cruising and the rpms are around 1.2-2k the drone is hardly noticable. When going 75-80 mph or more that's when the drone may be a bit more noticeable, but if you're someone who listens to music while driving, the drone isn't that noticable. I'm pretty happy with my muffler/resonator delete and this is just my personal input on the muffler/resonator delete.
I do believe that I am on the younger side of the owners for a w205, so that may be a factor to why I enjoy the sound more and the drone isn't too much of an issue to me. I'm just putting this out there for the people that are thinking about doing a muffler/resonator delete.
