Ordered Super Sprint X pipe for my SLK55 AMG

I just came from the Supersprint dealer, I finally ordered the X pipe which replaces the centre muffler of the SLK behind the twin exhaust mufflers, hopefully the X pipe will be here in 2-3weeks.

Stay tuned and to owners of SLK55 that were asking for its cost, Its 864.723 USD.

If I like the sound of the X pipe, I am going to order the Super Sprint Mufflers
Hopefully which cost 2,767.11 USD By Late May.

I will post a video later on where I compare the sound of the Stock Setup vs Stock with X pipe.

Thank you in advance

Awesome!

Finally, someone got more info on the X-Pipe. I really look forward to hearing the difference. Make sure you record the sound in multiple ways before and after installation: (slow & fast drivebys, idle, revving engine while stationary, etc)

PS. I like your second pic (by the ocean) much better than the first.

PSS. Did the $825 price include shipping to your area? Did you order it locally? I'm just curious what type of price it'd actually be in the US.

Yes included shipping, Did you know that SuperSprint manufactures the exhausts for Carlsson. Thanks hopefully I can provide the video's later on and satisfy your needs and wants.

Thanks for the comment on the ocean pic, It was a photoshop and that wasnt a ocean, the background used to be a parking lot

Installation is around 150-200 from the DealerShip, Hopefully I can convince them to install it for free or cheaper.

Yes, Supersprint manufacturers Carlsson exhausts for all chassis.

US retail pricing is 906.20 + freight. Out of state clients will be able to purchase from EuroElites @ $850 shipped. California residents, $950 inc tax and freight.

Here as an image I uploaded to show the members/viewers the X pipe in place.

Pics are from the SLK350 Super Sprint Whole Exhaust system including headers.

The X pipe is between the Mufflers and the Catalytic Converters, I hope this helps explain it.

Local SS dealer called me explaining how long the X pipe will get to be manufactured and to arrive Kuwait, SuperSprint told them that the X pipe is out of stock and its backordered plus they told them that this week there has been many orders been placed specifically for the SLK55 AMG X pipe and It will take around 4weeks till I get it.
Hopefully I am aiming for their SuperSprint Mufflers in the nearfuture.
