I'd love this kind of option for my M157 S63 coupe ! Great work !
It’s hard to improve on the stock pipes but you made it sound a little louder/clearer whilst maintaining the same sound, great job!
Love the page. I just bought a 2015 e63s and your vids definitely help me out with mines
Thank you for the video🙏Keep up the E63 content
I'm trying! Thanks for the support
This will be my first mod. Thanks
Best regards from Poland! 😊
Thank you for the indepth before and after. Really helps! It seems the difference is you can hear more details and some more pops/snaps. Really perfect subtle difference.
You're welcome. Hope this helps with the install as well
Great work Kenny!
wow, beautiful , nice sounds
Great video!
Very clean job on the install and amazingly no rub anywhere. That sliding bracket is a great idea! Great growl and still catted with performance gain. Hope group buy goes well. Another perfect job man - thanks! 02 sensors 🙏 lol.
Thanks man
That Cardinal Red E63 is growing on me. Ik it's gonna be damn near impossible to find one on sale. Nice vid. I would be still happy with the silver one u had
Love your vids man keepp going 👌
Appreciate it!
Beautifully made down pipes and amazing built quality. Will follow MB thread on forum on these. I have custom made straight pipe and muffles only (I know Greta hates me lol) ... and it sounds loud, maybe I will buy some exhaust valves with remote control.
Regarding Black boost intakes: many discussions about them and I still prefer the factory engine look with stock AMG boxes. My car pushes around 800 AWHP with stock intake boxes and drop in filters (K&N style) best 0-60 mph was 2.70 sec (1ft roll -2.49sec) again with factory intake boxes... So I don't know why people say "they restrict air" and pushing toward BB intakes... I believe it is a very good result for a 4420 lbs car.
Congrats on your new down pipes and thank you for another great video (as always)!
I've seen your vids sounds great.
I've been wondering if there's anyway to make these sounds"different"?
Many people do true duals or an h pipe. I wonder what an Xpipe would sound like?
Either way, couple people are wondering why I sold my blacklist intake, yes there's a benefit, but it's not huge, and overall the fit was just not great and I didn't like having a trouble code
I'm due for some new filters soon. Have you used the Weistec filters before? If so, are they worth a consideration?
Sounding really good man. I might need to get at you on that group buy!
from my understanding both the m278 and m157 have a lot of air intake restrictions, some people are putting spacers on the intake box and putting aftermarket filters, granted the cover wont sit properly
but if you want get a 1" aluminum and bend it to become a spacer along with m10 machine screws and a nut and washer, after bending the aluminum HVAC tape the open end to not get any air leakes (or you can buy them online)
Honestly it sounds same to me just like stock 😎
Great video! I did not see the link of the other video where you show how to take off the downpipes? Can you provide a link? Thanks
Wait, where did you get that shirt? I have a 2016 s212 e63 wagon..
@exotic car diy can you fo a video on the rear windscreen blind not worling? I have a e63s w212 2014 and the rear blind does not work. When i press the button i can hear a motor trying but the blind does not release itself. I live in the middle east so i assumed its stuck doen due to the heat but doesnt seem so after checking. You thonk the motor is faulty??
Hi can we see the video of the removal of the oem cats?
👀 I may be interested in the down pipes
I wonder what's the cell count of the OEM cats. If its 600 cell going to these 200 HFC's, that would be a huge improvement. But if the stocks are 400 Cell, then I wonder if its even worth it to go 200 cell HFC
If you want to retain the AMG tone but louder, try an H-pipe instead of the resonator. The resonator its self is an h-pipe but with some mute. I had replaced mine with straights on a bone stock car and was louder but the tone changed a bit.
Loving the channel 👍🏼
Great video! I have a S212 (wagon) E63, in the same Hyacinth Red color. Thinking about doing downpipes, but a bit reluctant as I really love the true AMG sound. But your downpipes have just that perfect extra growl.
A quick question; what rims do you have there? Size, ET, etc.
Thanks in advance mate!
I'm still 100% content with the sound from these downpipes. I've had no issues whatsoever.
The wheels are signature forged sv104. 20x9 and 20 by 10 1/2 with 255 30s up front and 305 25s in the rear
Do you sell those W212 T-shirts? I’d love to get a couple. I have a 2016 MB W212 E250 sedan - completely stock. Cheers, Stefan (Brisbane, Australia)
I have a question for you please. Do you think it is possible to mod the resonator like you did for the muffler ? open the box and
use clamp inside or x-pipe inside. why doing that ? because of the control we have each 2 years here and it will looks stock. Thank you
I think so, the only issue I see is there maybe less room for the bolts on the clamps to hide in the stock resonator case.
Alternatively, you could cut a pipe in half length wise, and weld it over the holes to accomplish the same thing
@@ExoticCarDIY Awesome, thank you very much, you are the boss lol. I have one spare resonator so i will open it without any risk. I will inform you if you are interested. Maybe you are more interested with the X-pipe...dunno... I've heard that the X-pipe could be the solution if you remove the catalyzers for the pollution checking control. hummm i don't know why from my side, it looks no sens
@@tld-airgunsalafrancaise5965 I'm pretty picky when it comes to sound on cars, they have to send good, not just loud. Many of the h-pipe and true duals cars just sound like an old Dodge truck.
Typically, an x-pipe smooths out the sound, and increases the pitch. Although, sometimes people say it makes it quieter. I think my plan is to do the x-pipe and then compensate the volume with downpipes and the muffler mod
@@ExoticCarDIY Awesome, i didn't knew that information and detail about H/X- pipe. Thank you very much. Only for my case then, because i don't want to downpipe, then i will try the H-pipe to get it louder. THank you again
You look like you could be Hoovie's brother!
Thanks for sharing, an other great DIY video. One year ago, you made the muffler MOD (today i've made mines following all of your advices and i'm 100% satisfied ). You said also in this video that you will probably try to remove the resonator. You did it for a test ? today they are still installed, why this choice please ? i'm thinking to remove it but people are 50/50
I've been going kind of slow and Progressive on the exhaust mods. But I'm trying to avoid is there are some videos I've seen of the E63 they make it sound like a old Dodge truck. Not sure what makes it do that, but I still want mine to sound like an AMG.
On the silver car all I did was just the mufflers. On the red car, I've done 200 cell downpipes, I'm actually very happy with the downpipes
Been a little busy to try anything else, but I actually think I might replace the resonator with an x-pipe in the future
@@ExoticCarDIY thanks you soi much for your explanation . I'm also progressing step by step like u . Yes it is hard to find someone who got both removed. From now i Can Say with the muffler mod only, this give me a good AMG sound but a bit more louder should be great ...Just affraid with the resonator deleted.
@@ExoticCarDIY old Dodge truck...you nailed it...that's what is making me very hesistant to modify the exhaust at all. I DEFINITELY want the performance improvement, but I also love the way the car sounds stock...and every video I watch of a W212 E63 with a modded exhaust makes me cringe...I'm torn.
Interested in a group buy... can you give a figure?
And the exhaust is similar to the air intake tubing.
Where or how can I buy a shirt? Great content!
What's the wheel and tire set up? The wheels look nice 😊 I need them noooow
Lots of info in my last video, Chinese tire machine and 25 series tire. Signature forged sv104. 20x9 and 20 x 10.5
And those videos they have 255/30 and 285/25 Michelin tires. I have since replaced the rears with 305/25 which look a lot better
Every time you post one of these I want an e63 more and more.
This is random, but have you ever heard of someone putting the pre face lift bumper on the new face lift car? I really like the look of the older style split headlights but would want a 2014+ car. It would probably be a complete PITA to do.
Thanks for watching man, it is definitely possible to swap out the front clip however there's more differences than just the front. The body lines that go down The doors rear quarter and rear bumper are different as well. I'm not sure if it be as simple as swapping the hood, headlights, and fenders.
I prefer the Elegance of the preface lift sometimes as well, but the all-wheel drive and the headlights definitely give the face lift the edge
Why were the motor mounts hard? Is it awd?
Yeah, I have a video on it. Mercedes says you either have to remove the engine, or drop the entire front subframe and suspension. I figured out how to do it without doing that
Did you know that nascar uses oval exhaust tubing? And Mercedes. It’s for clearance and is not a restriction. The restriction is at the cat where the opening diameter is barely large enough for a golf ball
highly interested in these downpipes, do you have a link to purchase ? cant find these pipes via Label in the clip "Exotic Boost by ECD"
I decided not to, I posted a link in the MBworld forum for the supplier
@@ExoticCarDIY found your post there, nice one
Why did you remove the black boost?
Is a car tuned?
Well there was some benefit, it didn't justify $1,400 and the fitment as well as the constant trouble code bothered me.
I am stock tune
@@ExoticCarDIY are you going to sell them?
E85 and sensor install video next??…😅
Depending on price. I am looking to do this on my tuned E550. Especially if I dont have to re-tune it.
I'm assuming, but I've never read or researched it....the 550 and the 63 share the same downpipe?
@Exotic Car DIY Yes. The M278 & M157 are almost identical with parts shared. Small difference in displacement. I might just go the cheapo way though and cut the cats out and Weistec tune it.
The new pipibg here looks same size, possibly smaller close to the catts in that long section between catt and S bend.
Who makes these down pipes?
I put a link and backstory in the MBworld thread on these
Who made these for you?
I went down a rabbit hole of trying to track down who actually manufactures the popular brands like red star etc. I found that every single one was made in China LOL
So I skipped the middle man and ordered direct from Jiangxi Boska Trading Co
Actually ordered a set for my 4:30 as well as the e63, the E63 ones are perfect I'm extremely happy with them, the 430 ones were junk. That's why I never ended up continuing with that company
LOL "Cadillac" converters 1:17
Where is the MBWorld post? Deeetails!
Deleting the catts wont add any real power, just like after market CAI's dont add but 3-4 hp and it takes a minimum 12-14 hp to make any percieved performance increaae. They shouldnt be called CAI's either because theres barely less than a 10°-13° temp drop with a better flowing filter while moving. When at a stand still, no change. Plus after testibg dozens of after market intakeson a variety of vehicles, if there are any bends or curves in air intake tubes, the bigger the bend/curve, the less airflow, thus more turbulant flow and drastic drop in any improvements. Any bend or curve over 45° and you will not get any improvements. Those more and higher degree angle of the bends/curves slows down airflow which we dont want. Its flow dynamics.
Hold up son, you have 3 of those cars???
I have had two prior w212 e63s, both silver. Currently have just the red car. However, my friends I see everyday have other 212s and a 213 that I work on all the time
@@ExoticCarDIY gotcha gotcha gotcha... I take it your wrench for a living??? Where in FL are you? Might become your customer if you're not too far
Nope, just a car enthusiast guy.
@@ExoticCarDIY did you ever get around that CEL with no tune? I'm looking to apply it to my E550 one day soon, but likely going with MBH parts
@@0-60STYLE these downpipes never triggered check engine light or any errors for that matter. I've now had them on for about 2,000 miles, with a bone stock ECU, no issues
