hi guys ,
nice to meet you all
i'm new here..

i wanna ask some exhaust things for my car..
E300 V6, 3000cc N/A V6..
i only change both of the mufflers into 2.5inch stainless steel mufflers..
and the sound didn't satisfy me, not big enough, and i got no power/torque up from doing this...

so, do u ever delete the resonators at the centre, and make it into x-pipe or straight pipe? (in my country least workshop knows xpipe, but they know straight pipe thing)...
i searched in youtube and found this video (c300 full standards mufflers, only delete reson, make xpipe):

i found the sound interesting to me.
And my car has already changed the mufflers, so if i delete the resonators and make xpipe/straight pipe, would be better than C300 right?
which one you prefer, straight pipes or xpipes?

anyone that already done this mods , please let me hear your videos/soundclips of the exhaust...
Thank you very much

Welcome,
If I were you , I would prefer a well known brand's exhsust system rather than x pipe , straight pipe .

We deleted the cat on my dad's car and it sounds better since
Deep V8 sound

you got E300,3000cc V6 also?
the cat means the muffler right? i think if u delete the cat/mufflers,
it will make you a power/torque loss wasn't it?..

don't u mind put the videos here? hehehe
THANKS!

Nope, mine is only 4 cylinders and 1.8 liter and twin turbo . What I refer to the cat is catalytic converter but they look same as muffler lol
I could put videos for you to see but my W212 is all stock , so nothing is promising for you .

Yup, when you delete the cat , you could lose some amount of power / torque at lower

what type ? hmm 1.8l with twin turbo merc?..
i want to hear the sound please
yeah loss power.. if i do just xpipe, do i also lose power?

I like that engine , downsized but performs well

Here's a video for it when it was a few days old lol :

it's stock broo, got no sound of exhaust..
which one is the one that you deleted the cat?
and FYI E250 is 1.8l Single Turbocharged CGI...correct me if i'm wrong

We deleted the cat on my dad's Caddy , that car is still too silent to my ears compared to Chevrolet Tahoe lol

E250 is twin turbo , single turbo is E200 . Mine churns out 204 HP, single turbo is 184 HP .
