MERCEDES C300 EXHAUST - RESONATOR DELETE WITH X-PIPE! 

What year is your c300

yes it does i have a 19

Also because the newer ones have inline 4s and not v6s

@@2wheelstuntin36has it broken down or any issues, about to get one so i need some advice

I would definitely do it! You won't regret it.

Yo! Same car as you here. I was debating on doing xpipe installed where tree resonator is with a muffler delete. What’d you do?

@@vivid8759 I have the 2011 E350. Thinking about doing a resonator delete soon everyone says it’s worth it

Thanks man! In this video just the x-pipe but I have other videos with the mufflers off and a stage 1 tune.

@@reags3460 With just the resonator deleted, did you experience any drone in the cabin at highway speeds? Or any sort of drone?

Hey again! In the first take is the car completely stock? It definitely sounds more sporty than my 2010 C300!

@@adamsoloman5291 this is probably a 2013-2014 model, they came with Mercedes n/a v6 instead of a turbo Inline 4 which is what every other model has.

Yea I would definitely do it...... it sounds really good

I did it on my luxury 2012 love it but u dont hear the roar to much unless under closed bridges and 4000 rpm or more

I have the same car and I really wanna do it but I’m worried about how would I get this to pass inspection? Because Doesn’t doing this cuts the check engine light on?

@@BobMarley-ey8ol no light comes on i done almost a year ago no light on i pass inspection i stay in nyc. As long as u dont touch the first cats that have the O2 sensors u will be fine. A mechanic told me even if i take second cats off will pass

@@nicknick6960 I have a 2014 c300 I am wondering how loud the cold start is? I have experience with a Catback system and I couldn’t handle the loud noise all the time. Thank you

With only a resonator delete no there is no serious drone

How does your car sound with just a x pipe because that’s what I want to do to my c300

No it will sound the same

I don't have the link to the one I got but I have a magnaflow x-pipe. You can honestly get away with any brand of x-pipe there shouldnt be a difference.

@@reags3460 thanks. I wanna do the upgrade just want it to sound a bit deep not so much whinny noise like if it was a 4cylynder with a muffler tip lol

@@jbarra3655 if you really wanna make it sound deep taking the mufflers off and the resonator will make it sound insane.

yea it was 2.25 inch pipe

Just x pipes

Yea so when you do a resonator delete your cutting out the resonator in the middle of the exhaust that's when you can either buy an x-pipe to replace it with or have the exhaust shop weld a straight pipe in place of it.

Best to do an xpipe instead of a straight pipe for the resonator replacement. Overall it’ll provide better airflow for the exhaust and give it a more aggressive sound to it due to the shape of the pipe.

7 months late, but also definitely recommend the res delete over a muffler delete. When you remove the muffler you’ll notice it’s constantly louder even when you’re not putting your foot down, so you’ll get drone in the cabin whenever you’re driving on a highway. With the res delete you’ll mainly just notice more tone/rasp when you floor it

I would get the X-pipe done first

Eh you’ll really start to get them with the res and muffler delete

Yea man it’s honestly a really good car drives well and it’s awd so snow and rain isn’t to much of a problem either and it’s prob one of the best cars to mod out cosmetically, there’s a lot you can do to it.

amazon or you can buy it off an exhaust website

what size x pipe is for the 2011? is it 2.25?

Thank you! Yea its just center muffler replaced with an x-pipe. I do have another vid where I did delete the rear mufflers too.

@@reags3460 i put on a x-pipe too now and made videos hehe.

Nikki Landa sweet I’ll check them out!

Not at all….only if you start stepping on it a little more

I have a magnaflow 2.25 inch x-pipe on my car let me know if you need any more help

Yea so I had them cut out my resonator and replace it with an x-pipe for about $110 then I had them cut my mufflers off and replace it with straight pipes for another $180ish

Never.

Magnaflow x-pipe no you wont get any codes

You can find the x-pipe on a lot of sites but the best place is prob Amazon or eBay for the best price.

Got mine off of Amazon it’s a magnaflow.

Nope you won’t get a check engine light.

Y shape amg rims and just a carbon spoiler you can find on eBay

Yea it will

Magnaflow

The only resonator on this car is the big thing in the middle. That’s what I deleted.

I Cut out the resonator and I replaced it with an x-pipe.

W204 sounds good man you should hear it irl at only 3k rpm

Nothing that I noticed really.... but the resonator is much heavier than the x-pipe so that does factor in with the power. I just recently took my mufflers off too and with that I’ve felt like I’ve gotten a little more power especially because of how heavy the resonator and mufflers are.

18 inches

Ok thanks

@@oumlowe8885 no problem!

Pittsburgh

@@reags3460 same here! 412! Nice Benz. We have it very similar Hope I see it out in the liberty or fort Pitt tunnels

For sure! I’ll be at the meets this summer

@@reags3460 bet! let’s meet up soon with our white Benz’s! Yours is so dope mines getting there lol

With just an x-pipe not bad at all.

@@reags3460with resonator delete and x pipe is there bad highway drone?

Yea, you have to cut out the res to get the x pipe in

@@ppopcan5274 Glooks yea I just got it...I want to get good sound like maybe just a res delete first but I just don’t want it to sound like a tin can so I was making sure u had done what I thought u did

@@colemeehan7412 well I mean if you mean Honda tin can then I can guarantee, the X pipe will sound better. Most AMG cars come with an exhaust system with the resonator already taken out and replaced with something akin to an X pipe for a more exotic sound. So if you’ve got a C300 and you’re thinking of doing it I highly recommend going out and buying the part right now and calling your local exhaust shop to see their prices on welding

@@ppopcan5274 word thank you for that

if u got it done what did they tax u for the welding and to remove the resonator??

I’d do a resonator delete with an x-pipe first and if you want more noise do the muffler delete after. It does get really loud once you have both off.

@@reags3460 Really! I always thought to go for a muffler delete first, I thought resonator was more for noise while muffler was for that sexy AMG tone...

@@jaanali1518 I mean the muffler is gonna give it a lot more tone but it's also gonna make it a lot louder taking that off over the resonator but if you are fine with it having some noise then it really won't matter.

Yea that's how I was at first but I can explain it to you pretty good. The resonator is in the middle of your exhaust system and its pretty much just like another muffler on your car. It is supposed to stop drone or an annoying engine sound while driving but when you delete it on this car your not gonna get any of that. When you get rid of the resonator its not gonna cause any problems and its legal so you can't get in trouble for it. It sounds way better without it.

And if you want to get it done just order a 2.25inch x-pipe take it to an exhaust shop tell them to cut the resonator out and weld the x-pipe in place of where the resonator was.

@@reags3460 does it give it more of a raspy sound when you take out the res? and i appreciate you helpin me out!

@@johnnys4745 Yea you'll get a raspy sound especially on cold starts the sound gets a lot deeper. Yea let me know what you need help with I got you.

@@reags3460 do you think the raspy sound sounds good? and how do you make the pops after you let off the acceleration? is there only one res? thanks bro i really appreciate your help

I used a magnaflow x-pipe. There's not any drone if you just put an x-pipe on.

@@reags3460 word! Forgot to ask, did you use a 2.5 inch or 2.25 inch ?

2.25

@@reags3460 thanks! I just ordered mine and comes in next week

2013

Not the exhaust it depends what car but it shouldn’t harm anything if you tune your car it gives the car more power

You’ll prob have to take it to an exhaust shop unless you know how to weld and cut pipe

Yea

I used a Magnaflow X-pipe but i'm pretty sure they all do the same thing and there isn't a difference.

@@reags3460 which model? how much did it run you roughly?

I paid about $100 for the magnaflow x-pipe and about $110 to get it installed so around $210 for everything but you can find other brands of x-pipes for about $30

You in Pittsburgh? I want to get mine done. Looking for shop to do it.

@@reags3460 nice. Will be stopping in there to see when they can do mine.

18 inches my front tires are 225-40-18 and my back ones are 255-35-18

Nope I didn't get one.

ReaGs thank you! Getting this done in a couple days !

manav850 Nice man you’ll love it! Sounds even better in person.

ReaGs I can’t wait ! About to go get it in a few hours !

@@manav850 I hope it all goes good for you!

Yea you can do it without any problems.

Ok, thanks bro, your car sounds so good, can’t wait till I put x pipe on mine

Thanks man! Yea it sounds even better in person

Do you have any shop recommendations in PA ? Someone who’s good with reasonable prices.

I go to someone in Pittsburgh not sure if you live near there?

In this video yea its just a x-pipe but I have a video where I took off the mufflers too.

@@reags3460 great I just ordered mine cause I gotta 2014 c300 sport it’s a magnaflow xpipe

Yea it will sound really good!

I got the resonator cut out which is in the middle of the car and I put in the x-pipe place of it.

@@VertexDesignINSTAGRAM ik I’m a couple years late 😂but did the 2014 sound good when you cut the resonators and added the x pipe?

It definitely does have a vq tone to it

look up mercedes y shape rims youll find a lot of them

@@reags3460 yo bro I know this video was posted 3 years ago but I just got these exact wheels for my car and there the exact same look as your with the black and chrome look. The place I bought them from didn’t tell me the name of the manufacturer of the wheels An I was just wondering what company made your u less your in the same boat as me lol and my rims also are “missing” the letter “amg” in the little square box on each rim was wondering if you ever bought a sticker for them or got the rims welded or anything at all. Kinda a long shot writing this as this video is pretty old now it’s worth a shot and would really help a brother out. Thanks

2.25 inch Magnaflow x-pipe but it shouldn’t make a difference to what brand you get

@@reags3460 gang…I got the same one good looks…was just making sure I bought the right one

Yupp that’s the one I got.

@@colemeehan7412 which one is it ?

Not with the x-pipe but if you take your mufflers off too you’ll get a little pop in low gears but not really. If you want pops you need to get a stage 1 tune.

ReaGs it’s sad that a 3.0 don’t manage to pop with a straight pipe..

Yea I’m sure if you take the secondary cats off it will get a lot of pops.

ReaGs i have a 2008 c300. I poked like 3 holes in the exhaust before the resonators and mufflers. To be honest it sounded soo sporty and way louder than before and had a little of pops and crackles on the downshifts.

It is a type of pipe that you replace the resonator with. It is shaped as an X

@@reags3460 thank you💪🏽

2013 but 2008-2014 c300’s will all sound the same.

I dont think they sound the same 2013-2014 has different engine 3.5 L other than 2008- 2012 3.0 L

Yea but it’s still the same engine for the most part just a little more power. I know someone with a 2011 and it sounds exactly the same

Sounds like you can’t even afford the 300
