They’re manufactured from steel and feature an aluminized coating for protection against corrosion. Choose the Y-pipe size and configuration designed for your specific make and model. These direct-fit systems may be a good option if you need to replace one whole side, including all pipes and both cats on the SAME side. Local Benz dealer quoted over CDN$3000 for both sides, complete replacement. Online, I found that I could get the full pipes and 4 cats for $1000 each side, for a DIY. My mechanic suggested universal cats (magnaflow part M, 2″, Metallic Catalytic), for $250 each side, Parts & Labour included, plus taxes. The M has engine limit of 4.2L, which is enough considering that the S500 has 2.5L on each side . STEP.9.Separate the front exhaust pipe from the rear exhaust pipe using a 13mm socket/ratchet and 13mm wrench.

i just tried it out with individual mode with engine at Sport+ setting and the rest the same as Sport mode and i feel like the exhaust is significantly louder especially in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear. i didn’t think sport vs. sport+ would make that much difference. Not sure which MY GLA45 you have, but for the when you switch to S or M mode the exhaust valve comes open and stays open.

Special Car Exhaust Tip

The sound characteristics are dependent on the currently selected drive program – from rich in drive programs C and S to emphatically sporty in mode S+. Control is by means of a variably adjustable exhaust gas flap – without loss of power. Control of the exhaust gas flaps is dependent on both engine speed and load, guaranteeing a 100% power delivery. If desired, the cold start noise can be reduced in drive programs C and S. For a few years now, Formula 1 engines have used electric turbochargers, with an electric motor attached to the shaft that connects the compressor and turbine wheels. The effect is virtually no turbo lag, as the electric motor spins up the compressor and turbine far quicker than exhaust gasses alone. Neat stuff, and thanks to Mercedes-AMG, it’s coming to production road cars. As exhaust gases exit the 3.0L Turbo engine and flow into an AWE Tuning 180 Technology® equipped resonator, they pass through strategically located ports, and into reflection chambers. Sound waves, carried by these exhaust gasses, bounce off the walls of the reflection chambers.

This one in particular also comes with variable tailpipe tip options, including ones that look like the stock tailpipe, which is a bolt-on system for easier installation. However, the real reason to go with the Eisenmann is for the sound it creates. Eisenmann has a history of making stock exhausts for AMG, and that experience shows in their sport exhaust. Of all the other exhausts, this one sounds the most similar to an AMG exhaust. The factory-installed mufflers come with some s-type compartments. They are designed in a particular way which forces the exhaust to spend longer periods while getting out. The heat and the sound get absorbed while they pass through those s-type compartments.

Therefore, it only makes sense to throw out the heavy-useless OEM exhaust system, replacing it with a full exhaust, catback, or at least an X-pipe. Unfortunately, many OEM exhaust systems use very small diameter piping, which usually results in poor exhaust gas flow. If your car has poor exhaust gas flow, you might want to consider adding aftermarket performance exhaust parts. The purpose of an aftermarket exhaust system is to eliminate exhaust gas restriction and improve power. With those cars in mind, it’s safe to say the only reason automakers are putting fake tips on vehicles is for aesthetic appeal. Basically, the fake tips allow a designer a little more freedom when styling the rear end of the car. Exhaust tips get hot, and you can’t have your funky-shaped exhaust tip touching the plastic of your bumper or you’re going to melt something.

It’s the engine size that determines whether the exhaust sound will be higher or lower. Quite naturally, a bigger engine produces a higher and deeper sound. Many owners of autos these days are preferred to make their exhaust sound louder. Making an exhaust sound louder means improving the car exhaust in such a way, so it sounds deeper when the car starts or accelerates. They typically make your exhaust system sound louder and more aggressive and, because of less baffling than in a typical muffler, can sometimes make a few extra horsepower. Of the five senses, certainly what you hear has a massive influence on how you feel. And now I know that an entire team of engineers at Mercedes works on improving my emotions. It’s not just the exhaust system; Mercedes makes use of the audio system as well.

Over 100 world champions have already relied on Akrapovic exhaust systems. Shop below for Akrapovic mufflers, exhausts, sound kits and tail pipe sets. In Comfort and Sport mode, the valves are closed and the exhaust gases travels through the reduced pipes into the mufflers for a comfortable cruise through quiet neighbourhoods or for a passenger who has fallen asleep. Then the system detects engine RPM and throttle pedal signal to automatically adjust valve movements for an uninterrupted progressive driving experience, maintaining legal sound restrictions where applicable. Each part of the exhaust system is individually designed to perfectly fit onto the Mercedes-AMG GT S. The amg exhaust pipe variants are available in distinct models, shapes, sizes and finishes. If you want for a mat finish look or a sturdy one, you can get that or if you are looking for a glossy finish, you can get that sort of amg exhaust pipe too. These amg exhaust pipe are made of high quality and rigid metals for longer sustainability and break-free performance. Meisterschaft is the result of GTHAUS’ bold objective to create one exhaust product superior to all others. It’s safe to say they succeeded, as Meisterschaft exhausts took the automotive industry by storm with the most unique sound ever heard.

There’s a distinct tone change between Fi EXHAUST stainless steel and titanium exhaust. My white 45 has NSP and black chrome tips like the specs detail in the order guide. Mine is still the cheap chrome split trapezoid tip over a weak looking 2.5 inch round Toyota-like exhaust. CAPRISTO Exhaust systems are engineered and manufactured utilizing advanced 3D Laser-Scanning, CAD Design, Digital prototyping, and CNC-bending/milling at our factory in Germany. Each system is made of high-grade T309 (1.4828) Stainless Steel and hand polished to a mirror finish. After extensive research, this specific alloy was chosen for its sonic resonance properties, low weight, and durability which are close to the properties of Inconel . Both the Cruise and Sport mode can be individually programmed for specific backpressure allowances to determine when the exhaust valves open. This allows precise control of the exhaust based on the drivers personal tastes and tolerance. The iconic CAPRISTO Valved Exhaust System offers the best of both worlds through its capability to produce an aggressive exhaust note under acceleration, and a more subdued sound for city driving. Downpipes come standard with internal Ceramic coating to keep heat within the piping, helping improve exhaust velocity while also reducing engine bay temperatures.
