Sorry for the late reply since I was out of town.

I put the cats back on so the sound will not be different.
The sound was louder if the cats was off.
On the other hand, I did not noticed any power to be gained when the cats was off, maybe loose a little. So I think it is best to leave the cats in place.

Cheers.

We would simply need a single US importer for these, then distribute them out to the people who bought them, or they could ship them direct from hong kong to the buyers.

Id be very itnerested in doing this but with 2 additional inline resonators.

Let me know what you think..

BTW, was that $800 HK or US dollars? jk
The shop is very famous in Hong Kong and they build a lot of exhaust systems for racing car (Road and Track).
I am afraid that you need to have your car here to have the custom exhaust installed.
All the pipes need to be bent and adjusted so they fit the car, they do all the welding and bending on the spot. I don't think it is possible otherwise.
But they have resonators for sale and I think the sound is really nice!

Woowww .. Thanks a bunch ... I read somewhere earlier in your post that the inlet of those resonators are 2 inches right?... I'm thinking which car I want to put those resonators should I decided to get em, the C200K or the C32...cos if its inlet only 2 inches I think my C200K might be able to use it.

On your C32...how much louder is it compared to a stock C32 exhaust??... a little, medium or a lot louder??...does it drone inside the car at cruising speed?...

Thanks

The sound is much louder than AMG at high rev. The sound should be pleasing to everyone.
Below 3000 rev........medium
After 3000 rev..........quite loud

does it drone inside the car at cruising speed?

a little bit

I haven't tried supersprint before.
The performance of the sheepdog is really nice since they make a lot of resonators for racing car.
You can only get it in Hong Kong.
If you are interested, I can help to get it for you.
