I know Kleemann makes 200 cel cats that replace the secondary cats. I'm not sure about the primary though....

I thought I'd read that the stock primary cats in the AMG exhaust ARE high-flow?

The primary catalytics are heavy and are extremely restrictive, an identification to this is the restrictive headers and airbox setup by replacing the current headers and airsystem a 30hp gain is possible.

If you check out LET's and Vrus sites, they don't get 30 hp gain on a C32 my friend, even with headers. Maybe, and I do mean MAYBE, on a 55 series, but not out of our V-6 my friend. Thats way too optomistic, IMHO.

Weight wise you might shed 5-10 lbs, but come on not even Michael Schumacher would notice that difference.

See yeah

Does a stock C32 runs 14 psi? If so, is that boost bled down at redline? If 14 psi is correct, and it isn't bled down at redline, then at 6000 RPM, a C32 ingests more air than a C55.

This would mean the exhaust flow requirements for a C32 are greater than a C55.

I believe Brabus makes some as well, but they're insanely expensive.
