C63s performance exhaust help needed
Hi
So I took my car in for the first service (13000km), told the stealer that she was feeling slightly lazy and they should check it out... on collecting the car the service bloke informed me that the ECU and TCU had new software available and this was applied. All good? Nope
What I'm finding now is:
1) The power and responsiveness is better - thumbs up
2) The exhaust is quieter - thumbs down. Normally when I engage 1st gear or Reverse, then ease off the brake, the bass in the idle sound increases and the sound gets louder. I loved that, especially when rolling through a built up environment - makes the car sound like a modified bruiser - well now that doesnt happen, tried all the different drive and exhaust modes, best I can get is in Sport+ with exhaust in Sport +, Race mode which was the most mental is tame now..... heartbreaking
Any advice or guidance would be highly appreciated
Cheers

Not to mention the 60-70hp you'll be getting. It'll REALLY wake up the car.
