I gotcha....

Dont know too much about what mufflers or intakes (if any) they offer for these ML's. For mufflers, you may want to try Remus or SuperSprint, otherwise see if Kleeman, Brabus, or Lorinser make custom exhaust for W164's....If so, they will be on the pricier side.

Hope this may help.

Matt....thanks for posting your link. I saw a system that would fit my 06 ML500. Any idea of horsepower gains from your catback system? Also, do you have any pics of how those tips look on the back of the W164?

Thanks!

Oh...didn't see all that at the bottom the first time! Looks like about a 5hp increase throughout most of the rpm range? This might make for a good first mod!

How much for the 5 hp gain? I tell you this, 5 hp will not be noticeable power. But if all you want is sound, go for it.
