Agency power + kleemann ecu
Im installing the full agency power headers + exhaust and a kleemann ECU, delivery will be tomorrow. I strongly recommend the company im using to install the stuff, distributer of kleemann for the area ..
http://www.funktionauto.com/
the owner coincidentally shares my name, went to my uni, and my boarding school in switzerland. Very nice guy, was nice enough to update me on the fact that the system is installed and the ECU should arrive tomorrow from kleemann.
he also added that the agency power stuff i supplied him with was some of the highest quality top notch products he'd seen, and he sees alota AMGs.
so ROB from vivid racing, thank you for that !
im gonna let you guys know what i think of the difference in performance
here's all i got for the time being :P
*** Please help me out with the last pic, doesn't it look like the tips are protruding a little too much ?? ***

very nice! you will have to post some vids...have the same exhaust, just don't have the headers and have been debating as to whether or not to get them for a long time..
as to the tips, they do stick out more than stock, but trust me, the look is phenomenal.
much more aggressive in my opinion.
the next time you see your car next to a c63 with stock exhaust, you will think that the stock c63 exhaust is underwhelming..
nothing to worry about imo.
will look dead sexy imo.
enjoy waking up your neighbors!

Hah, I set off car alarms in my condo garage all the time Juvenile fun, but fun nonetheless.
I think the tips look fine. Kind of hard to tell from that angle, you should get a top-down shot, but I think that's standard fitment.

Congrats on the mods! Looking forward to seeing it when you get back and getting your feedback on the exhaust/headers. Let us know if there is any drone!

It depends what you mean by drone. While accelerating you hear the exhaust clearly in the cabin. Under heavy acceleration, you easily drown out the stereo and any conversation possibilities. However, once you reach a cruising speed or let off the gas to coast, the sound quickly dies away to a low rumble. People used to very quiet cars probably notice a "drone" but I call it music of a different kind. It does make phone calls a bit difficult if you're accelerating, but otherwise, I just crank the volume up. The "quiet" toggle is more noticeable to the outside observer than inside the car.
