I am not the typical guy either, although not as crazy as Fred! do you sell anything to eliminate the side mufflers as well, like you did on his car? or would i need someone to do a custom job for that?

Hey Mercedes Benz, honestly 99.9% are happy the way our car is and I could send you one.. if you aren't happy I'll gladly take it back. The straight pipes are just not something we're comfy selling to anyone and doing so without the car is a bit fruitless. Fred=long-time-standing-known-crazy so he's ok

I understand, thanks for the offer. Maybe i will take you up on it soon. Although i know from all these vids, the bypass pipes are no where near as loud as i am looking for, all the videos seem so quiet. I am driving around with my sport button unplugged and even the drone it gives is still so quiet to me. I came from a very loud car before my GT3, and freds car sounds quiet compared to it. I suppose i can always have the straight pipes done somewhere locally custom.

So if the car is back to stock headers, stock cats and the straight pipes has it been re-dyno'ed to check the power output w/ this set up?
I personally do not go for just the sound modification. I'd like to gain something out of a set up if possible. Also IMHO I do not like the sound, it doesn't sound clean but it's not my car and I respect the individuals choice on these matters. To me the Cargraghic set up was nicer.

Cheers,

Hey Juan, nothing wrong with expressing your opinions.
We're actually planning to dyno my car and compare to Alex's car.

I still have my cargraphic set up and can always go back to it. At most, I think it would be 20HP improvement, which to me isn't all that much especially when tracking.

So for now, I'm just going back and forth enjoying the car in its different stages in HP and sound tones
