what year is your E320? All US E55 AMG mufflers have dual inlets, but there is an W210 AMG muffler with one inlet. All W210's from 1996 to 1997 have single inlets. The stock muffler and mid-muffler is one piece unit and has to the cut to install the AMG unit.

Mine is 96 e320

after climbing under the car i see that my stock muffler has single inlet, mid muffler has 2 inlet single outlet. If i remove the mid muffler i should be ok right?

does anybody else have this set up?

Here is my aftermarket exhaust setup.



Mine came with a mid-muffler with dual output.

Yep, if you removed the resonator/mid-muffler, you'll have two straight pipes to go into your new E55 exhaust. I had to make a "Y-joint" to fit my straight pipe to the single inlet of my Sebring muffler:

The US E320 for 1996 and 1997 is a straight 6 cylinder engine. Wonder why the mid muffler has dual inlets on a I6?

Ooops, mine is a late 98 V6......my bad - only one way to check, look under the car

Maybe because there are 2 exhaust manifolds on the engine followed by 2 cats.

Hi Shane,

Did you have to cut your bumper to install the muffler?
