Mercedes e350 2014 sport package
HELP!!

Hey so im trying to find the right fix to do to my mercedes e350 2014 sport sedan, i want to make it have some loud sound to the exhaust nothing crazy but almost similar to amg like, im not sure if a muffler delete or resonater delete or both will make it sound good. I dont want it to sound crazy loud, just something loud but clean that sounds like i did a custom mod. Any suggestions on what i should do??? Wethere its buying muffler or resonator or something else???

You will not make an E350 sound like an AMG. Let's just get that out of the way up front.

His car is stock, as is my 2016 - and I also feel like it is loud enough already.

put a microphone under the hood, wire it into aux input on the stereo and turn it up. be sure to drive with all windows closed to keep that sound to yourself.

a normally aspirated 3.5L V6 will never sound like a twin turbo 600HP 4.0L V8.

You better find a real AMG if you want a V8 sound as said before .There's nothing with 6 cylinder but I see your pain nothing sounds like a V8

My sister beached her '02 E320 on a snow mound years ago backing out of the driveway, it got towed off without the muffler, it sounded like a Honda Civic with one of those turbo mufflers on it. I don't believe you want that.

My opinion is Mercedes V6's are meant to be felt and not heard. The meistershaft doesn't sound bad but most any modification to the E350 exhaust will likely make it sound juvenile at best. Like others have said if it is important to you that you have a good exhaust note in a Mercedes you need to step up to a V8.

I'd rather be the guy in the sleeper making a soft quiet whoooosh while spanking the clown in the big noisy muscle car or clapped out barking nissan ricer. the sorts of guys who buy those mustang/challenger/camaro kinda cars seem to get all riled up when a quiet white station wagon driven by a white haired old guy zips off the line and on down the road. i did this a couple weeks ago at an intersection where two lanes turn into 1 just before merging onto a freeway, the guy in the stang was blipping his throttle at the red light, so I hit the 'S' button, and pegged it pretty hard when the light went green, and was several car lengths ahead of him at the end of this short 2-into-1 ramp I matched speed when the traffic in the right lane and merged cleanly, mustang clown boy had to practically clip someone to get into the left lane and roar past me, then found himself getting a performance award from the local CHP who saw him from several cars behind in said left lane (I had wondered why everyone was going exactly 65 through there, as its pretty typical for the left lane to be doing 75+).

People tell the same thing, about my E550 that it's not an AMG. If I want a silent car I buy a Tesla or worse a Prius. He wants to make it loud let him. He never asked for it to sound like an AMG. He wants for it to sound original. I think the M273 sounds like a VQ37VHR when it has an exhaust. I think some owners hate seeing other owners make their cars sound bad. But I did not buy for other owners, I bought for myself.

I respect people that want to keep their cars quiet, and I will no belittle them. I expect the same respect when I make my own decision.

To the OP I would start with an x pipe, and 2.5 inch pipes (3 may no only sap power, but drone as well). Stay away from booming mufflers. And make sure you get an xpipe as close to the engine for performance and to lower drone.

Yea, but you forgot to tell him I've added an OEM rear deck spoiler... that's worth 5hp, easy.

I've been remiss in not following this thread closer. Here in Texas, most of the loud exhaust vehicles are F250 or F350 or Dodge RAM trucks. The Chevy Silverado crowd seem more sensible, I notice. Since I don't want to be lumped among that ilk, I'm happy to tool along slealthily, just occasionally rocketing away from a stoplight. The stock exhaust sound still impresses me enough.

Plus, in my community, I see 5-6 Mercedes-Benzes for every mile I drive. At every stoplight, there's an excellent chance there are 1-2 other MBs in the queue with me. When the light turns green, all pull away without drama. And I don't want to be the one to squeel tires.

We also have several Ferraris, Aston Martins and other exotics, too. And I seldom hear any of these showing off, even though they can make quite a racket when they want to. So best to fit in for the most part.
