Exclamation W203 Class exhaust configurations

I am 99.999% sure that the C55 exhaust cannot be retrofitted on a C32 without extensive modification. And I agree with smc32 totally, it is also not a wise move to put an exhaust for a V8 engine on a V6.
C55's don't have a true quad exhaust. Independent-true quad exhaust --which reffers typically in the "quad" word to 4 tips in the rear-- systems have out of each header, in within other components, not restricted to, listed in no particular order: headers, catalyst converter, resonator, muffler, tips. Here are some pictures of the possible M Benz engine-exhaust configurations:

C32 6 cylinder engine configuration


C55 8 cylinder engine configuration


C55 rear end pics


As Mr. Harris indicated, unfortunately, implementing the C55 exhaust system IS NOT a straight "bolt on" unless you (whomever that wants to do it) is willing to do extensive work to have your body shop cut out the spare tire whole out, patch it, then you will have space for the right muffler. C55 chasis have the rear section of the car (trunk area) re-designed with the spare tire sitting in the middle of the trunk. This in addition to smaller mufflers allows the C55 "quad" exhaust.

Mr Harris:
Can you please pictures of the underside of your vehicle to see the exhaust configuration you have installed?

Thanks

Wiedermann

so what exactly is the best way of adding quad exhuast even if its not a true quad to a C32 without major mods under the car.

Looking at the exhaust design, I don't think the dual exhaust does much for performance. I wouldn't be surprised if a single pipe would yield the same power since the dual pipes do not extend the full length to the headers.

I had "almost" replied to your question, although I saw that; as you said, you have posted the SAME question almost everywhere, including in this forum.

The DUAL chrome AMG tips DO NOT come separate from Mercedes Benz, or AMG.

If you see the pictures below, the diagrams ARE the Mercedes Benz catalog of parts released by Mercedes Benz.

In order to get the "tips" you would have to order almost the whole muffler system and have them (the tips) removed which is extensive work.

C32 6 cylinder engine configuration

C55 8 cylinder engine configuration


Your question in ALL boards is how can you do it "inexpensively"... whelp?... MB and inexpensively have NEVER mixed well and will never do...

If you are fixed on getting the twin AMG tips and you want somehow to get your prices down, you have to start looking on totaled cars on junk-yards; although that is an option I would not recommend to anyone.

If you read ALL the postings you placed even on this forum ONLY... Mr Harris already replied to your question a long time ago on the W203 forum and indicated to you with part number for ONE single chrome tip for the SLK which is the ONLY part that is sold independently (only the tip instead of the whole muffler assembly).

Since I got my C32, I had considered to put the dual exhaust w/4 tips. Mr SilvaC32 (aka. Jerry) had a custom work done on his car which is a complete muffler system custom built for his car. SilvaC32's set up looks more or less to what the C55 has

C55 rear end pics


However, on SilvaC32's set up, he has more mufflers.

In sum:

Q
Specifically looking for the AMG twin-oval tips.

A
No, you can NOT

Q
Part # and price $ would be great.... any leads ?

A:
Do a search on the W203 forum here on mbworld and you will get the part number from Mr Harris

If you have any questions, pick up the phone and call me (Wiedermann) 818-469-9874. You live in California, so a phone call won't kill you

Cheers!

You will be seeing your car's exhaust pics for about 2 more years I say.... that until the next chassis is introduced and your C55 is old news... how about that?
