    Why did you post this question in 3 different places? Performance Tuning section is the correct place to post this question.
    Delete the other 2.

    Andy, as you are new here, I'll cut you some slack. Please refrain from posting the same question (or variation of it) in multiple Forums. Choose the Forum most appropriate to your question and post it there.

    Try doing a high flow cat upgrade and remove the central resonator. That should improve breathing and give some more sound. You will never get the sound of a c36 or c43. You don't have enough cylinders

    You could drop in a C36 or C43 engine if you can get one, if you really want the sound, or cheaper to buy a c36 or c43

    Basically a 4 cylinder won't sound like a 6 or 8 cylinder because of physics and the number of exhaust pulses per revolution

    I put a C36 exhaust on my C280 and even though it has the same number of cylinders it does not have the same rumble as the C36. Don't get me wrong it sounds much better and a definite improvement....but a C36 it isn't.

    What kind of C280 do you have? Straight 6 or V6 because that will also make a difference, not to mention displacement and the amount of air coming out of the engine

    In my case the C280 has the M104 motor or inline 6 just like the C36. I chalk it up to the displacement.

    andy, type w202 in youtube and there should be a few videos of exhaust swaps and the sound after. Just click on one and the chain begins
    Also, the sound should be nearly the same along all the w202's that have a I4 engine

    the M104 sounds beast without any exhaust =D


    you got a 4 cylinder W202 right ? Do a resonator delete and add a magnaflow 14815 double wall dual tip universal muffler
    Its what OCklasse has as his exhaust setup and ive heard it in person numerous times sounds great.
    heres a youtube clip

    the 14815 usually goes for around $200 USD shipped to your front door.

    Along with displacement I think the note has a lot to do with cam timing - overlap/duration etc

    I should post how my Borla sounds with the performance headers. I think it sounds deeper than either of the other 2.
