Exhaust mods for c63SE

Hello all, I am considering getting a 2025 c63SE, I just have a few questions regarding the exhaust. Now I know it will not sound anything like the thundering Amg’s of the past and I am ok with that, but, have any of you tampered with the exhaust to try and get some more sound/pops and bangs? Does a resonator delete on these have any impact or possibly even muffler delete? I’d be interested to hear if anyone has done it and if so a video would be lovely!

thanks

I think there was someone that took the resonator off and then there's the akrapovic option for the rear mufflers.

ah, I tried finding it but can’t locate the video. Akrapvic is so expensive LOL, also can’t seem to find a tuner for the car

Hello, I own a 2024 and I’ve put 10k miles on it. I’m very happy with it. All the talk about sound seems a lot less important when you experience the improved performance over the previous model, especially when you understand how to drive it with the various settings. I put a RedStar downpipe on it and it’s made a performance and sound difference. I can try to send a video when I get back home. I just ordered a tuner from Burger Motorsports. Check out their video of Dyno tests. I can report back after I install it. Here is the link-

Burger Tuning just released their JB4 piggyback for the car.

It's a unfortunate thing about this car. people don't want to make product for this car because the car isn't selling. I've been looking for the diffuser add-on for ages. no one makes a replica version of the smaller horizontal plane for the rear and I'm not spending on OEM for a lease. lol

if you don't mind posting where do all the plugs go when you install with photo?

I'm thinking about it but seems pain in the butt to connect.

Valve controller

I ordered an exhaust valve controller. When I get it and install I will report back. I had a mid pipe with an SST valve controller on my G8x M4. It wasn’t very expensive and it made a very noticeable difference. I haven’t heard of many options outside of DP or going with an akrapovic or armytrix.
On a side note, I am very impressed with this car. This is my first MB after only having BMW’s and Audi’s for 25 years.

former G80 owner here too. lol didn't bother with valve controller on that when I realize there's actually 8 individual setting for the valve on the G8x associated with drive modes as well as valve open and close. most people don't know you actually get the valve fully open in the "M2" mode with sport+ on.
