Daily > Headers, ROW and LSD (?)

Hi Guys,

Just joined the AMG life not a long ago and this is my daily. I'm thinking to install Headers, ROW and LSD as now I don't have it but I don't know whether its worth it or useful not. Can someone please explain the difference and whether it is worth it or not (I know this sounds ridiculous) ? What do you guys say?

Also, I'm thinking to change my diffuser to a long fin diffuser as now I have the medium fin. Does someone know where I can but it? I'm not looking for the best in the market, as long as the fitment is good and its not too shabby, it works for me.

Open for any recommendations and suggestions!!

EC V7 (pump gas) / Revozport carbon induction kit / KNN / Intake thermal spacers / Decatted all cats (including the one in the stock headers), res and xpipe with stock mufflers / Zito / PS4 / HnR street coils / Carbon parts.

ROW airboxes- unless you buy used from a local seller, probably not worth the money. It's pricey and gains are questionable. No aesthetic improvement either.

Cant speak for whether the LSD Is worth it - came with my car. Other users seem to swear by it.

Headers is one of the best mods in my opinion. Definitely do it, as early as possible. Then slap a dyno tune. Its more than enough power.

Btw grats on the sick looking car. I love the color, but it may not be for everyone. Looks like its had quite some stuff done to it already, which is always cheaper than to buy an unmodded car and do the mode yourself.

Edit: I think your rear diffusor already looks very aggressive and nice. Perhaps there is a better place to spend the money?

LSD makes a huge difference even around town IMO. I didn’t have one and the traction control would kick in all the time, especially trying to make a right turn into traffic. With LSD it just goes. You already have a big fun diffuser. Headers ca decat...i don’t know how much that will be worth it. There are some cars with just a decat that are running pretty quick. I’d just get the LSD and save the headers money to do headbolts.

I'm pretty sure that is the Big Fin diffuser already on the car. And is that the green from the GTR?? Did you have the respray done or you bought it that color?? The green GTR is actually my screensaver at the moment! LOL

car is CLEAN!

Headers would be your best bet.

ROW filters you don't really need, just open your air filters and pull the charcoal section out. BTW, just based on the looks of your car it's been modded, chances are the filters have already been removed and they prob have performance filter in already, open up and take a look, if they're orange and black below they're stock, but i HIGHLY doubt it from the looks. Car is fking stunning.

LSD i don't have but like you said people swear by them.

GTR green is magno (mercedes marketing word for satin). His looks glossy - still an awesome look though

Thanks man for the recommendations. I bought the car stock on 2016. Yeah, I'm thinking of getting headers and updating my tune after I got it.
