AMG exhaust
Just added an AMG muffler to my 320 but it still sounds stock. Do I have to change anything else?

Cut out the resonator and replace it with straight pipe. Shouldn't cost more than 50 bucks at a muffler shop.

Cutting the resonator and replacing with a straight pipe will definitely add character to the car. It will sound more aggressive and seperate you from the rest of the 320s!
