Sorry, also I have an e550 so it's definitely going to sound different.

Buy a mudstain or a Camaro? God knows they're cheaper than tampering with a Merc. Just my two cents. From what I've seen on the forum paying to make a car sound and act like an AMG is right in line with buying a used AMG.
I kinda like driving a silent killer.

That sounds nice tho, like a growl cold start. When I took my resonator out literally no change was made. I had to take mufflers out for it to sound like that lol...

What do you think if I get x pipe and put mufflers back on? Or even get 2 new magnaflows?

I would assume throwing a couple magnaflows on and maybe an xpipe would work? Like I said, I have an the v8 so I am not sure how it would sound other than what you hear on YouTube. Good luck!

Well, I'd beg to differ. I outrun most "stock" AMGs and I have an E550. My car is faster than an E63S...and what do those cost??? $60k+???
I have less that $20k inverted in my car to make it run like it does, TOTAL, including the purchase price of the car, tuning and exhaust work.

The 2012 and up E550 are platform mates to the E63's. Think of it as a AMG-light, and a lot closer to the new "AMG" 43 53 etc.

I see where you're coming from. Not meant to be a bash. Just one of those "right tool for the job" kinda guys.

I did a muffler delete, then center res replaced with x-pipe, then removed the front resonators and had them replaced with pipe. It was great, I really liked it. Loud, but not obnoxious. Nothing like it is now...ooph!
