Has anyone done a resonator delete with the stock muffler on a C230K? I'm thinking it would give me a bit deeper of a tone (which is what I'm looking for), but at the same time I'm not sure because it's only a 4 cylinder! What do you guys think?

It's a BIG silencer and you'll end up way too loud. I would't delete it if I were you.
On the other hand you can always try... :)

i just did a muffler delete replaced with straight pipe on my c280 and it is not loud at all. if you do a resonator delete it wont sound loud at all. they told me a resonator just reduces drone on the highway.

lol this is way off from what the guy asked for. his asking for just a resonator delete and you show him your resonator delete with a magnaflow. Sounds good though reminds me of a Subaru.

vaspen

yup there both out and they are very heavy compared to a regular hi-flow cat from napa or something
I did notice there is a baffle in that y pipe thoe
I think I have a pick of the aftermath too lol looks ruf but it dosent vibrate haha XD
