350 huh? Sound clips would be great. If not, is there a meet coming up I could stop by and hear this in person? Both Seattlites from what it looks like in our sigs.

I test drove a 2007 e350 (stock) the other day. Loved the way it sounded when it started up and when it sped off. Any chance if your 350 sounded just like that stock?

no sound clips as of yet.
I need to find my camera.
The 350 sounded OK stock
but with this exhaust sound much deaper
and a bit louder.
I dont know if its just the louder exhaust sound but the car
feels a little faster,
plus ill get rid of some weight because the OEM resonator is pretty
heavy compared to the X pipe.

I see. Surge, I have a 320. What should I do to make my car sound like yours, stock? I know it's a crazy question, but tbh, I really like that E350 stock sound.

Sounds good stock? I didn't know the 350 had a stock sound. I just came from a V-8 with dual three inch Flowmasters, headers, and intake so this exhaust is next to silent to me.

Of course it has a sound. It doesn't start and drive around like a ghost car.

It has a fairly deeper idling sound than stock and sounds subtle but "Gruff" when you beat on her. All in all, I know they were meant for a V8, but i'm glad I did them on our "little" V6

Please post a sound clip as soon as you have it. From what I've read in the MB forums, I was under the impression that the sound from the V6 with that exhaust wasn't very good

ill post sound clips once my wife finds the camera.
if not ill download the youtube app from the app store and post
the video straight on youtube.


I think car sounds much better with exhaust.
i pretty much couldnt hear it before.
now i can hear it when i step on it and when i start the car.

if anyone wants E63 exhaust i could sell one for $700
