Having some exhaust work done....
I'm going to take my car to the local exhaust place soon to have some custom work done.
I'm curious of how to turn off the far most rear O2 sensor. I hear there is 1 back in the back. I'm wanting "open" things up or if I should just remove the mufflers and do straight pipe in place of the mufflers.
It's a non turbo 2001 s600 v12.
I have star diagnostics but I do not read german so if someone has directions how to do this, that would be great. I did turn off the smog pump but that was back in January.

I like the factory oval but I was looking for dual tips on each side but I would want quality tips plus I'm not sure how dual tips would look where the oval spot in the bumper would be.
Form, function and quality does matter.

I just had my exhaust work.
kept the Catalyc converters and resonators but DELETED the rear mufflers.
sounds nice and deep tone, louder than stock ,but a quite tame sound.

I think that is only if you buy those Japanese long tube headers which I think the company is closed because they weren't selling enough. I was hoping to get some but couldn't find any.

You were after a tame sound so keeping the resonators was ok. Those who want to go more aggressive can delete both mufflers and resonators , and it will certainly not sound like a NASCAR car

No it will not. Especially on a 600. The turbo models naturally tame the exhaust note due to the turbos , and Keeping The cats provide a muffled effect .
