i want to get an exhaust for my e420, and i was wondering if they made dual exhausts for the w210, cause i havent seen anybody with dual exhausts here.

I believe the dual exhaust is non functional. That is, the second pipe is only for show.

All the results I get on a search here say otherwise. Can you elaborate?

My OEM setup is probably on its' way out. When you all did your replacements, how did you handle the 4 cats?

Is there any recommended aftermarket kit that will provide true dual exhaust?

most that have done it to my knowledge have been 320's.....but there's no way you can do a dual muffler, no room........you'd have to cut away the bottom of the car/spare tire well and do it all custom.......too much headache

What about directing the pipes right off to the sides?

Seriously...ok understand that, but what about the 4 cats? Must we keep 4 in the future (they get rather expensive).

cats stayed the same......


i',m not sure your understanding what i'm saying.........

since you don't have room for a dual muffler set up you can do what others have done which is a single muffler that has a dual outlet which pipin goes from the muffler to the right side........

I was kidding about the side pipes. I hear you. Aftermarket or OEM?

No. That isn't elaborating.

This is elaborating.

Does this setup provide any performance boost?

Ted, most people here say it can't be done. Can you give some details as to "how"?

Very difficult to get straight answers here sometimes.

Looking at the sequence of questions... had to pull a tooth to get even that bit of info.

Of course, no one is obligated to provide answers, but I think this is what a forum is for. Some people ask questions and those who know the answers give them.

I know repeating questions can be annoying, but look, you ended up providing the answer anyway.

May I be so bold as to suggest that, if the answer is a long, drawn out post, a link can be provided.

If the answer can be given in a short paragraph, then why not just give it?

I have done a lot of searching and many times can't find what I'm looking for. Maybe it isn't there, or maybe I'm not so good with the search function. I really appreciate it when someone goes out of their way to make it easier for me, and I try to do the same whenever I can.

At other times, I have read where a member asks about a particular customizing part and never receives a reply. It almost seems like the poster doesn't want anyone else to know about his "secret".

Anyway, I think sharing is a good thing, and you guys provide that service most of the time.

Here is a look at what the 203 uses.

this guy has done it, Topdeez. He is on this forum. He has the quad exhaust. All we need is for him to take pics from underneath to show the pipes. Here is the link to him https://mbworld.org/forums/members/1305-topdeez.html

I don't know why this issue has such a big run around???

hahahah you guys are such girls.......it's not that I or others aren't there to help others out but that some don't read......even ted told you to pm him and he's provide some answers.....f-rod the picture you attached, it's the exact same way as a w203 is done...

my pipe is routed a different way but like i said before i wouldn't be able to take any pics because i don't have the car....

to take it up another notch....i don't know of any aftermarket companies that have anything for the w210 other then lorinser which would allow a dual exhaust unless you do it custom like myself and topezz
