hi Bruce, thx for ur advice

by modding the exhaust and straight pipe , would it be too loud ?
since I got a bad experience on my ex-prelude by modding the exhaust , it is TOO noise , especially reding on Hwy , made me feel headsche
therefore , i m wondering is there any brand exhaust and pipe without too loud sound which I can choose ? ( i dun wanna lose the peace and comfort )
thx again

I have a Remus exhaust on my CLK and it is not that loud at all. It is a little louder than stock when you are accelerating, but noothing extreme. On my C-coupe I have an eisneman Race exhaust without a resonator, that setup is probably a lot louder than you want on your CLK. Eisneman has other mufflers that aren't as loud, but Remus is a good muffler that is not to loud and it looks really good. Call Carl at bergwerks.com if your interested he can get you one.

If you straight pipe the car though it will be louder though.

I can try to get a pick of the CLK posted this weekend. Weathers not to good right now to get it out of the garage and take pics. The remus is resonator back.
I have dual 83mm rally tips for the muffler. If you look at remus's site you can see what options there are. I don't know if headers make it louder. I would guess they make it a bit louder but Im waiting until this summer to get mine.

good luck with your car

Supra- if you can you should do the Kleemann system it would entirely change your car.

I will have pics of the Remus exhaust posted for you tomorrow afternoon. The ones I took tonight did not turn out.

I don't know specifically anything about the Kleemann exhaust, but I am sure that it is high quality. Wait until you see the pics of my remus though. Then decide about flat tips or rally. The rally tips are more unusual.

How much horse did your supra have?
