Best sounding G500 muffler...

I just purchased a 2008 G500 and a PO chopped off the muffler.

Any recommendations for best sounding replacement muffler? Some added sound would be great. However, I don’t care for the sound with no muffler.

Thanks in advance!!

Jake

I'd sell you the pair of Sport Exhaust mufflers off my 2020 G550 mufflers but it will not be here until the summer.

Do you know if they will fit on the G500?

Factory sport exhaust from the later naturally aspirated G550 models (2009 to 2015 I think) I love the sound - not too loud with a really nice burble

Might be able to find used from people upgrading or totaled cars at good prices as they’re probably not as desirable as G63 set -just a guess here though

Member Kobzarhomes used a G63 exhaust welded to his factory G500/M113 headers and says it sounds great, exactly like a G63.

Should be fine.You can measure your outlet pipe and let me know if you might be interested since i have the replacements here. Again, mine will be new and coming off as soon as I drive home albeit not for a few months.

No rush, you know where to find me!

And in regards to the adapter, any muffler shop can weld pipes together for a lot less I would think.
