I do apologize for the confusion, I do believe you need the full PE exhaust system but I love to be wrong.

You're welcome : ) I am sorry and I want to admit I don't have much experience with aftermarket exhausts, so I am not sure how to help and I don't want to give you the wrong information. However, you may ask someone that put a fi exhaust in here for assistance : ) https://mbworld.org/forums/c450-c43-...i-exhaust.html

If you do retrofit the oem performance exhaust however you could probably buy a exhaust valve module to keep the exhaust open all the time without any CEL or codes.
