Hi Lee

Yes it's been a long time.

Love the x pipe. It louder on startup but I do not even notice the difference when cruising.

Sometimes I regret not having the secondary cats removed but then I actually prefer it a bit quieter
99% of the time.

Go for it - I am sure you will be happy with the difference.

Cheers Alan - I may well get it done when the weather clears.

Hi Lee mate how's tricks not see you in a while.

I had the X pipe done on my SLK55 some of the previous pics in this thread are my old car. I've just had the same mod done on my C63 including removing the secondary cats, the start up cold is now incredible it's just crackles into life, when you nail the car it's mental. But driving around town and 80mph on the motorway it's no different to standard so it's the perfect modification.

Hi Barry - it has been a while. Hope all is well mate. Do you still have the Tamora?

That's some encouraging feedback on C63 fitment - the SLS can't be much different from a C63?

I'll have a serious look into my options when the old girl comes out of hibernation - given the value & rarity, I can't bring myself to get her out onto cold salted roads frown

It's the best mod I've done on any car. Can't recommend Infinity highly enough. Some clips of mine below
