Good morning people.

I am looking to put a x pipe on my e55, before I go to someone to have it custom made, i want to know if this one will work:

any if anyone have ordered "already made" x-pipe online that works great?

for intake, i am looking at this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/CLS-55-AMG-...sAAOSwQjNW-pre

if anyone have it on the car, how is it? Do I need a tune for just changing the intake? any other recomendations?

Thank you

That's the same x-pipe I used to replace the resonator on my E500 with M113 engine.
Works great and extremely good value.

do you know if they fit the m113k as well?

formed X-Pipes are better than not having one, but you'd generally want a cut and welded X-Pipe for maximum Laminar flow.

Might be a maximum 1/4" difference in our piping diameters, but that small amount could be made up in the weld. It should fit, others may chime in on this.

i have no muffler at the moment... not the exact note i am looking for, just trying to put an x pipe to see if there is any difference, i kinda have to anyway further down the road.

+1 on the x-pipe, that's the go to style

Huge negative on the intake. Don't waste your money, it does absolutely nothing but heatsoak you in traffic and brings no gain. Don't do it.

The only intake that gains power over the stock airboxes is the Needswings intake. I gained 1.7psi of boost from that alone at 6000 plus DA.

if you do get it make sure it's coated.

wonder what makes the difference, both kit looks very similar..

What makes this one so different
