resonator delete - very minor sound gain
2nd cat delete & x-pipe - noticeable sound gain & 0.5hp gain...

Looks like the same set I got from Ebay. (don't think it's the same seller though).

04 - 06 e55 Wagon - looking for
I'm not getting how the euro trunk insert is installed. is it an entire piece and can it be clipped in? how is it fastened to the rear deck? Keep the pics coming!

it's basically an entire piece. you have to take out your old US one and then it clips in and I believe there are two torx screws as well.

it was a somewhat easy job. MJ and I did the install

Thanks makes more sense now. This definitely makes the rear end look entirely different - in a good way!
