Sick exhaust. Can't wait to hear that Brabus in action, will you be so kind to post a video for us?

Laser diffusers are right below the "chrome moustache" above the license plate- quite stealth.

I would be more than happy to post a video for you guys, but I do not think you're going to get the full effect. I had them start it up for me in all I can say is that thing is sinister!

What are the advantages of replacing the standard exhaust with the brabus exhaust? By the way they look amazing.

Hello,

The Brabus exhaust will provide performance and sound to the GL63. Increase in HP and relatively louder than stock but with the option of closing the valve to be significantly quieter.

Thank you!

Here's a link to the shop that did the work. Best of the best in my opinion!
Sorry for slacking on a video, but I'm waiting to put on at least 1,000 miles before I start getting on it hard.

Does the link to the last video work for anyone? I will try to get some more vids up soon. What kind of a camera can I buy that would mount to the rear of the vehicle that can record while driving around? Also has anyone tried turning traction control off to see if they can spin your tires?

The camera you're looking for is a GoPro. It suctions to anywhere on the outside of the car and you can drive with it on.

Smayshusband:

Really cool project. Thanks for sharing it. It looks like there is a switch to "turn on" the Brabus engine tune (From the tuner shop description about keeping access to the stock tune) or is it always on. And how does it feel?

Unfortunately, the exhaust video clip does not work for me and I would love to hear the sound of it. Can you try again?

Thanks!

The Brabus tune is on all the time. Which I've got to say is sometimes almost too much for daily driving... not really, just during rush hour ....just kidding never enough power!! I'm not sure about everybody else who has tuned their gl, but I never drove the car without the tune so I've got nothing to compare to. I drive around in sport mode for the tranny, and it's really aggressive. You really have to feather the throttle or it's just gas and brake gas and brake. I also noticed if the tranny is in comfort mode it feels really lazy, but I guess that's how it supposed to work. Anyway the only the thing that can be adjusted is the exhaust note, which is my favorite thing to do! There are two modes loud and quiet. I call it his and hers. You can open the exhaust valve from the steering wheel by pushing and holding for three seconds the up arrow on the left side, the down button closes the valve or when you shut off the car the valve automatically closes again. It definitely gives a deeper more throaty growl. For some reason I can't upload the video and the link is not working, but you can look up you tube account smay3600 and you'll see it or try searching brabus exhaust gl 63 Amg. It's a short clip but I'll try and get better ones up soon.

Damn, that's a lot of money for a little more purring and 10 Horsepower. The Ferrari 458 slip on exhaust from Akrapovik is around the same price for a car that is MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE!
