not to be annoying, but the cheapeast and easiest way is to trade to an E500. The 3.2l v6 is a fairly well optimized powerplant, and any gains you get from small bolt ons will not be impressive.

We offer an exhaust for the E320 W211 is that TUV approved, basically this means our decibel output cannot be higher than stock however the sound characteristics are changed and the exhaust is a straight through design, thus reducing back pressure to give you high RPM gains and a better throttle response.



We also offer a 4x2.99" version.
