5.5 Aftermarket Exhaust

Has anyone modded the exhaust on their 2012 CLS63 yet?

a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
I would love to have something like that, valve controlled that is.

Does the Brabus version give you a button/switch that is mounted in the console or dash? Or is it the remote controlled type?

Looking forward to your video too.

Yes it's a a switch mounted on the console, they made this for the SLS, S63 and CL63 too here is a link to how it looks like

Thank you for posting those vids! The car sounds incredible, but for some reason..I don't know..I'm just not convinced. It lacks the noise and tone that I thought an aftermarket exhaust would give it. I'm sure its louder in person. I'm not sure how this exhaust is set up but I bet an exhaust system with no secondary cats and an aftermarket muffler would sound pretty mean.

I will delete the cats what you hear in those vids is with the full factory cats, that's why it doesn't sound incredibly mean, but I am sure once those cats are removed it will be a total different story.
