    If I put an exhaust on my c220 will it sound like crap?

    Do you guys have recomendations on what type of exhaust to get?

    well nobody just makes exhausts for our cars, so it will be custom. Having said that I would recommend a cat-back setup. If you cut out that cats entirely or replace with highflows it will be pretty loud and may not pass emissions in your area. As far as what mufflers and reosnators to use I use Vibrant performance on my car, but others here use magnaflow and they like it. There is also Borla.
    Completely mad.
    '99 C230K, intake and exhaust more on the way.
    '86 MKIV Escort RS Turbo, stock for now, chip and more boost on the way
    '75 Fiat 124 Spider, koni shocks, bigger carb and drilled/slotted brakes
    to tune and hoon the mbz master race.

    I have a custom Borla setup on my C220 and am happy with it.

    yes. arguably your motor is too small for it to not sound like a small engine. it'll sound extremely simliar to other 2 liter motors. IE 2.0L scions, hondas, mazdas.
