Very nice congrats
Love the exterior/interior colour combo.
There isn't a dedicated C204 C63 board in this forum like there is for the regular non AMG C204's unfortunately, so you'll have to "hang out" with the W204 C63 crowd
Hopefully when the C205 C63's released there'll be a dedicated section for it.

With regards to the exhaust, that's exactly what I had in mind to be honest I just didn't know how friendly that would be as far as CELs and whatnot. Like I said I love the way the car sounds and don't necessarily want an entirely different sound, I'd just like to bring it to life a little. It's very pedestrian compared to the MC and my truck and bikes haha! I appreciate the input. When you guys have pulled the secondary cat and res do you just have a shop weld up a straight pipe section or are there companies selling something to replace it? On an Aston I had in the past there was a company(s) selling $1200 "delete kits", after seeing some pics on the forums I had my local shop make me the same thing for $48 lol!!
I'm a little tired right now (almost 4am) but tomorrow I'll dig around for a diagram and show you what has to be done. There is TONS and TONS (literally, **** ****ing tons) of info and posts on res/secondary cat deletes so if you don't see me tomorrow just search it. At least once a week there is a new exhaust thread here. Bottom line, one cut and a few welds, done. Best suggestion, x-pipe in place of secondary cats and straight pipes to replace the resonator.

So, if you have a good exhaust shop around you then they will be able to take care of you. The x-pipes that are sold around here are a little pricey (usually about $500) unless you can pick one up used. It is a really simple setup though.

Had the day off today so I cut my resonator out and replaced it with straights. So. Damn. Good. I'm not even going to bother with the secondary cats, it's exactly what I wanted as is. Thanks a lot for the tip!! If I get a little time this weekend I'll rig up the GoPro and get out and do some clips for comparo with the GT lol
Enjoy!
