No need to explain bobgodd, understood.

Believe it or not we think AMG wanted the sound of American muscle coming from a stock C63 because the "resonators" are actually an H-pipe (with .5" dia crossover tube) making for a deeper "old school" muscle sound.

As much as it sounds powerful, I don't think it's spot on to a Vette,F-body, Stang in terms of tone--perhaps most importantly to the owners themselves, on the inside the stock note hasn't changed. It's just more clear (less muddy) and moderately louder at WOT. Warm idle and part throttle aren't much different than stock and this is without any cats. With cats the difference vs stock pertaining to volume won't be as significant.

When You want to get the most power out of your AMG or muscle car that type of sound is a trade off you have to be willing to take. Not for everyone sure, But its a must for the power hungry gear heads.

Very true hooleyboy. If you want every last drop of power (we think most will just get the LTs and mids paired to the stock catback) our 3" X-pipe, resonators, straight through mufflers back to revised tailpipes will be available to connect to the existing system shortly. It will no doubt be loud, but that's why we offer choices in cat cell count and two types of mufflers, to let the consumer dictate exactly how he/she wants their vehicle to sound.

Good idea. I'll try to do that asap. Thanks.

Andy can't wait to do the exhaust on the M5. We both love the way the 5.0L V10 sounds at 8500rpm, it is TRULY exotic, but there just isn't enough volume.
