Did my last modification for 2013

Yesterday, my mechanic did the resonator delete.
Replaced it with a straight pipe.
Fitting was plug n play w/o problems.
We left the 2-ndary cats in place because I didn't want to cut them out and ruin the exhaust.

Now I have a slight increased burbling sound on stationary, when I drive my car, it sounds like the roar of MGM lion
I drove by my pops house and he heard me inside from the apartment.
Car is loud when the axxelerator is nailed to the ground.

My car now have a Nascar sound which factory should have added from the very first, I'm more than happy if I say so.

More details on this piece, please! Is that the straight pipe you installed? Custom-made or available ready to drop-in from a vendor?

this is a custom made pipe for C43 and W208 CLK55AMG cars
fitment is perfect!
made of stainless steel
MKB offers these soundtubes for €499 juros.
Mine is not an MKB product
See bottom pictures

we also tucked in the tailpipes so you only read the AMG logo and the rest of the body is inside the rear bumper, this way it gives the oval pipes a nicer looks.
I've seen C43's where the muffler pokes out way too much, which doesn't give a nice look

Today will be the last day I drive my car for 2013, from tomorrow she is in hybernate, salty roads and black ice on the streets is no good combination for my summertime car.

So you are happy with the sound. With the secondary cats removed I can guarantee it is even better

T Rex is still on the road as we still have summer temperatures here. With luck it's going to be at least one and a half months before I think of putting the C43 in hibernation, so some good driving ahead now that most of the tourist have gone back home...

How comes you say it is NOT an MKB product and you show a photo of an MKB tag welded on the pipe??

didn't wanna cut off my rear cats, it's better keeping the exhaust intact, i guess i wanna be politically correct for the enviroment with cats still on my car.

i wanted that raspy sound when nailin the axxelerator but that modification requiered cutting.

now with less tourists on the mountain roads , you can return to what you were doin' when nobody watched............................
AMG + heavy right foot = shady speed

Mein ersatzrohr nicht MKB teile, diz iz ein spezialteile für C43.
Check and compare upper pictures vs bottom pictures, you see they are not the same parts, twin tubes are longer on my soundrohr, MKB twin tubes are shorter.
MKB pictures were shown for compare vs my part.
I like my part better as it was much cheeeeeeeeeeeeper!
