Dude! Your CLK is sick! I love it, you even got your hoody up in the Video!

What cutouts did you use? What size?

Z,

Do you have any trouble with GA emmissions?

'00 Mercedes 430/55 clk cabriolet
My pipes were made with race grade steel by a relatively new company in the Uk.
I needed new Cats because one was rattling so I chose to do away with them.
At pull away and high revs the car is louder but is quiet at motorway cruise speeds!

I have a 3in pipe from the headers to the back box (right hand drive cars can't get headers).

It's a bit windy so the sound isn't right but here it is:

Mine does the exact same thing, but I happened to have it hooked up to a live data scanner once and it said my pedal sensor circuit high, so I wonder if the foot pedal sensor needs replaced

My E420’s main cats died about nine months ago. I know the M119 is a different engine but want to give my $0.02. I cut them out and threw away the muffler and resonator. Only time it’s really loud is cold start, hard acceleration, +90 mph (when I like hearing the engine most). I can drive around the city with the windows down and have a conversation without yelling.
