KB24forlife24's Quad Exhaust Thread
Hello MBWorld! I have officially started the process of going to quad exhaust! Today I just went to my body shop and got my bumper cut and within a few days I'm going to get my exhaust installed. I currently have a muffler delete only. My setup (thanks to Fatz) is going to be like this: Remove the resonator, place Magnaflow X-Pipe (PN#10791) in place of the resonator, all the way to quad AMG replica tips which I got from EuroStyle here on the forums. I'll post pictures of my bumper cut and the parts soon and will update the thread when I get the exhaust installed. Feel free to ask any questions or provide any comments! Thank you to all that have helped me so far!
EDIT: Page 2 shows the full exhaust installation and final product.
Here is a cold start:

OK that's the resonator I would get if my setup is too droney. Where did you place the resonators and x pipe? I'll listen to your exhaust clip when I get out of class in a few hours to gauge what mine could sound like

The xpipe is right after the secondary cats. Then it splits up into 2 separate pipes, each with 1 resonator. Try without the resonator first. That way we'll have a clear understanding what the volume difference is haha.

Awesome, more quads!
I have the magnaflow X, with 2 magnapack resonators afterwards leading into quad tips. Cat/res delete. You are gona love this!
edit: i ran for about 5 months with no extra resonators, just xpipe into quads with all straight piping... it was def loud! Sounded like a beast though but I eventually felt bad for my neighbors... and my GF haha

I can't do a 2.5" setup all the way because of my spare tire well, the gap would be extremely tight. I'm gonna do 2 or 2.25 after the x pipe. I don't think I can dyno it lol

As far as dyno I doubt it would make any difference at all to warrant the cost of the pulls.

. This shop is really good because they explained all these things to me; the other shops just said "yeah we could do it" and nothing else.

Oh whoa that's a lot of space. Maybe they had a bigger pipe and thought it was 2.5"? I'll have to contact them again and show them this picture. But for now i'm gonna have to get my bumper cut a little more because the gap is too tight for the tips. Thanks again for that picture!

Besides, those gases will move more quickly through a smaller pipe, which is good.
The bend and weld quality may be more important as the pipe size, after a point.
