looking for members who've installed the cargraphic headers
i think from reading through threads, i was only able to find one member RNS- 11z who has them...
is there any more information regarding these headers like dyno charts, expected gains and such.
i've seen some vids of the sound but that was a full exhaust system.

I was looking into the Cargraphic system and the problem is that you cannot use the headers alone and must buy the mid-pipes. By the time you do that, you could buy the MBH setup.

The car graphic system is not a true LTH system. I can tell you when i modified my collector cone and extended the header pipes i lost some 15rwhp. How ever insaying that i ran my pb 12.0 @ 121mph. I believe i could go evenfaster.
I gained a good 5mph over the stock exhaust. The welds on the system is perfect. The valve control works perfect. The only thing i would recommend is take off the little stoppers on the clamps (if you buy the system you will know what i mean).
If you want pricing, google BPS Chiptek in Australia brisbane and email James.

MHP set comes with the mid pipes as well doesn't it? but just bolts on
i was told the cargraphic is just bolt on. i'm not looking for the full system all the way to replacing the mufflers.
if i get the headers and mid pipes, isn't that essentially the same? what am i missing?

The Cargraphic setup with mid pipes is like the MHP setup (installation wise). It takes you from the heads to the the resonator and is bolt-on. Supersprint has a setup coming our way soon. But according to Evosport and others, they had warranty issues in the past and drop them as a supplier. YMMV.

See here for dyno charts on Cargraphics. https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...ers-c63-3.html
there are some gains so that's better than nothing
i'll definitely be getting a custom tune with it so hopefully i'll get the most out of them when installed.

not only were the thumbnails so small i missed the dynos in my own thread, it barely enlarges to see it clearly.

Hi guys,
I've just ordered my cargraphic exhaust and tune from Jason @ BPS (Bayside Performance in QLD, Australia) with the exhaust and tune being fitted by Andrew @ Superior Automotive in Mona Vale, Sydney. Will post results and video of pre and post dyno when completed.
Can't wait to see the results!
Cheers,
John

That doesn't seem like a bad price as a tune is around $2,000 plus.
I live in Brisbane not far from BPS. I was thinking of just getting the remote rear mufflers but not sure if it's possible to bolt on factory system.

I have a question. Are the things you're buying from James at BPS real Car Graphic products or replicas?
I contacted a shop here in Melbourne that has contact with Car Graphic and the head of sales in Germany said they don't/havn't dealt with anyone from Brisbane/BPS/etc. Maybe he buys through a dealer or something, I dunno.
Anyway, the reason I ask is because the best price we could get here in Melbourne was like 5000 euro, which, once converted and then freight added on top, I don't know how BPS offer it for the same price but in AUD and delivered to my door.

My understanding is that the exhaust is a replica. Apparently the exhaust is made by the same manufacturer/fabricator that cargraphic use. Either way, I'm expecting good things for dropping $7K on a tune/exhaust. I'll keep you posted with pics and videos.

So wait a second, you guys are paying 5k+ for a system that's not even authentic (replica)? How much does the real cargraphic header system cost? 10k?
