Muffler shop needed - NW Chicago suburbs - 2004 SL55
Hello Everyone,

I'm glad to be part of the AMG club again. I missed my 2009 E63 so much that I recently pulled the trigger on a 2004 SL55 with only 32k miles on it. Anyway, my E63 had a resonator delete on it, and now I would like to do the same to the SL. I'm fairly new to the Chicago area so I wondered if anyone could recommend a good shop for doing the work?

Thanks!
Garret

I Garret,

I had mine deleted at Dave's mufflers in Kenosha WI. Might be a longer drive for you but they did an awesome job at a good price. It's just across the border. Good luck

Awesome. Thanks! Longer drive is just an excuse to put a few miles on!

@gzgym1 If you're open to selling your resonators after they are removed - let me know!

I have removed them and am opening to selling as I’m quite happy with the results. No idea what they are worth though…
