S63 or S65 exhaust on an S600.
Hello all
Sorry if this has been asked before, but i have recently purchased a 2008 S600 V12 Twin Turbo. Now while all the power is available to put a big smile on your face there is no good sound to go with it.
I was in a dilemma about 6 years ago about wether to buy a W220 S55 Kompressor or the W220 S600 V12 Twin Turbo. In the end i bought the S55 mainly because of the exhaust note. Now having sold that and moving to the newer S600 i miss the "AMG Hammer" sound from the exhaust.
I was thinking of putting on some rear boxes from a W221 S63 or the S65 onto my S600, but would that be enough to replicate the sound, or get it pretty close even? I mean after all, the S65 is essentially the same engine in the same body, but sound like a monster.
Iv seen people put C63 rear boxes onto E55's before and that seems to work.
Will it work on the big cars, and will i only need the rear boxes or the complete system? Failing that (because S63 and S65 parts are hard to get a hold of) will rear boxes from any of the other AMG models work, the C63, E63, CLS63, CL63/CL65 being the primary examples?
Many thanks.
