Muffler Delete
I read that a few guys swear by deleting the Resonator saying its a good first mod but has anyone deleted the muffler? Would the sound be equivalent to running the sport exhaust at ON (valve open) all the time?

is it now? muffler delete in this forum shows 7 results. 1 of the 7 actually mentions a muffler delete not including this one. the reply was about gle63 muffler delete. I'm asking for a GT, if anyone has actually done it.

If you want it to sound like the valves are open all the time, you could run something like the Renntech EVM, and just leave the valves open all the time!

But don't buy it from Renntech, they are just rebranding someone else's product and charging double.
If you want to go that route, shoot me a pm and I can let you know how to bypass their forced restriction on shipping to the US.

Removing the muffler is a bad idea. It will sound terrible - like a Honda Civic with no muffler. Does your GT not have the exhaust button? Why would you want to replicate the sound running with the exhaust on all the time and not just press the button?!

I do see aftermarket exhaust for sale that do not have a muffler in their setup (its way overpriced) that is why I am asking this question here.

It does not have a button. Someone has also mentioned that on the GT there might not even be a valve to open so adding a remote won't do anything.

Ah yes. You are a good man and correct. I went to dealer and drove with the AMG tech in a brand new GTC and it also has the same rattle. Apparently it's a thing with the valves open.

It’s certainly not normal. My GTC does not have an exhaust rattle. I think you’ll find it has happened in a small handful of cars.

Funny enough it took me switching dealerships to finally solve the problem so maybe not so much MB but ****ty service.
