Sounds good! Who did you end up picking your rear diffuser up from? Did you paint it chrome or metallic silver or something? Shiny.

Diffuser from Teo. It was painted in body color, was the reflection that made it look like chrome, shiny.

Resonator was removed long ago, and recently the 2nd cats.

I didn't know the size of the pipe, seems like identical to the rest of the pipings.

Exclamation What to do regarding cat and resonator delete?
Hey guys I have a 2002 c32 AMG and currently I took the stock muffler off and replaced it with a flowmaster. It sounds good on the outside but too much drone inside around 2500 RPM. I was doing some Research And was thinking about doing a secondary cat and resonator delete with the stock muffler. I have heard the video clips on YouTube and I love the sound with those two things deleted and putting the stock muffler back on. My only concern is how loud is the drone going to be inside the vehicle when crushing on streets or highway with the secondary cats and the resonator deleted?. When I bought the car, it came with the resonator deleted and the drone was not bad,you could barely hear it. Also when the secondary cats are deleted, should I replace them with straight pipes or a x-pipe going to a straight pipe where the resonator would have been. Any suggestions? Thanks
