2016 C300 w205 straight pipe

Hey, how are y’all doing today?
pretty new to the forums, but have been Browsing for a couple of months just not registered.

I drive a 2016 C300 w205 base model.

only things I have done to it are deleting the mufflers and deleting the primary resonator; so I still have on resonator on and to be honest... it sounds great. Oh and a k&n air filter 😂.

was looking for any advice on power gains, boost controllers, certain tunes, air intakes etc etc etc from anyone that has the knowledge.

Don’t know why ya’ll are poking so much fun at OP, it doesn’t sound like a Japanese rice cooker, more like a ball bouncing around in a metal can if anything. Forget the haters, I love the sound you got going on OP.

A 200 cell downpipe improved the sound significantly for mine. A decat downpipe crossed my mind but I came across a YouTube video of someone who got a decat downpipe and he said the smell in the cabin was unbearable.
I still have one of the resonators on and am considering swapping that out for a high-flow resonator like this one

the original resonators from Mercedes are already "straight through" and does not restrict flow. It does quite a good job in reducing the exhaust resonance... so unless you are changing them out to get your exhaust note to be louder.

Deeper and more volume ideally. I will just do a resonator delete first to see how it sounds and if the sounds become worse, I will put an aftermarket one in.
