CL600CK60

I was wondering what tweaks are necessary to get that hearty exhaust sound of a V12 machine.

What I have in mind was featured in Quantum of Solace (with an Aston Martin):

Short of getting an Aston Martin, what needs to be done to get this kind of sound on a CL600?

Keep in mind that parts of that he is driving in a tunnel so its louder, when you listen to it when he is not in the tunnel its not that loud.

I would start with removing your mufflers and go from there.

DBS. Someone has some studying to do.

The DBS's V12 is NA and sounds high pitched where as the 600's V12 is Twinturbo'd so it sounds muffled and low pitched. You cant get the TT5.5L to sound like the 6.0 in the Aston

Great video. I don't think I should be removing any mufflers

Do you know which tuner can make this modification (preferably in FL) and which "muffler package" is involved?

Its not a muffler package, you just go to a muffler shop and have them remove the mufflers and put in a straight pipe. It should cost maybe $100 and sounds great, many of the tuners and V12TT owners on here have recommended it.

Think about this the worse case is that you don't like it for some odd reason, then just have them reinstall the mufflers.

Unbelievable that there is a $100 upgrade for the CL .

I am sure I will like it. Just in case, if you happen to have a youtube link with the "preview" of the soundtrack, I'd appreciate it.

This link is in the thread I suggested that you read, Its not my car but its how my sounds now. All V12TT would sound very much like this if they did a muffler delete !

thank you. I watched the first video and it sounded awesome of course.

These two additional links made it clear - muffler delete with quad tips sounds just right.
