I know I keep banging on about my exhaust termination, but it is really a
mish mash, the end of the exhaust doesn't even line up with the square tail trims. The end of the system is to high and just blows under the bumper, in
fact if you put your hand over the end of the square tail pipes next to nothing
comes out. It's a great car but sounds rubbish on hard acceleration.Exhaust pictures-tail3.jpg

Another thing is you only get a single oval pipe each side , which on a turbo
car is not good.

SL 55 and a GT 3000 vr4 Here's my car: http://home.online.no/~ludvs/index.cfm
Weird exhaust

So this is probably a bad design from mercedes.

Can you try to fix the problem yourself maybe?

If shouldn't be so difficult to "repair" the design flaw with some help from a body shop??

Good luck with your project to fix it!

Thanks, I am going to get them connected somehow, I might change to
round pipes.
