Looks nice, but personally, I owuld have went with square tips to fit the body lines a little better

Well done tho, your car is coming along quite nicely and differently.

BTW, please resize your pics to 800x600 max.

The square tip (which is what my Supersprint was) fits well with a stock bodied 202 or '36. With the WALD kit and 210 mirrors however, the car's lines smoothen out. Round tips are a must to not give the car an "old school" look.

hey, i like it, take some video of it driving, like a take off or something...i also went to see what other videos you had posted on there and i saw the one of your clatter, i have the same coming from my 98 c230!...is it still there or what did it end up being? cause ive replaced all 16 valve lifters and my timing chain tensioner trying to get that noise to go away...thanks man


edit: actually i can faintly hear it on your exhaust video at the 26-27 second mark as the revs are coming back down to idle...ive got the most keen hearing for that knock now..haha

you can definetly here the drone with the resonator deleted. sounds great , how does it sound when you are driving ? is it quiet when your like on the high way or does it get even louder when the rpm's are going?

It's silent unless I am giving some throttle.

by some throtle? do you mean accelerating? how about anything over 50 mph?

im running a cold air intake and a magnaflow exhaust and its loud as hell when I drive. sometimes its really annoying. i would imagine cabin noise would be much louder.

Yeah, accelerating. If my foot is not on the gas pedal, it's silent. Goes for all speeds.

Nice muff bro!.. sounds very nice. I used to have a magnaflow muffler with resonator delete way back myself. mine had a good growl at idle and was pretty decent when cruising. I wouldnt say it was quiet.
Love the round tips.. I think the square tips look too "old".. round is the new square!
my Eisenmann has round tips.
car is lookin good as always.
