The stock system, on the contrary, uses a total of 4 cats (2 cats each side), 2 of them (1 each side) are positioned very close to the cylinder heads, and their rating is 400cpsi or higher. The front section of the Supersprint exhaust uses 2 Metallic catalytic converters with 100cpsi rating, one cat each side. Metallic catalytic converters, with 100cpsi monoliths

The Supersprint SL 500 mufflers are available in the quad, 120x80mm elliptical tip design, or in the dual, 145x95mm elliptical tip version.Īnd since the Supersprint tips are separate from the canisters, the bolt-on system with its ring clamp allows for a full range of adjustability upon the installation, and guarantees fine tuning the tips position to the rear bumper skirt. The exclusive Supersprint muffler design also provides the right blend of exciting sound and optimum performance, while never becoming obnoxious, at any rpm. This feature ensures the least wind resistance. This particular, streamlined design uses the available space for the exhaust system at its best, and keeps the silencer boxes tucked in and away from the direct air flow running under the car chassis.
Supersprint uses this exclusive, oval & tapered cross-section silencer design, which has been developed specifically for all of the Mercedes models with a R & L exhaust placed directly behind the rear wheels, like the SLK 171, the E W211, and the CLS. The Supersprint silencer canister tapered cross-section, its overall volume, the inner, perforated core pipe diameter, all work together to best suit this Mercedes V8 n/a, 3-valve engine, and ensure optimum results. These mufflers come with a made in Germany, EEC homologation, which makes them road legal, worldwide.Ĭontrary to the stock muffler system, which uses the baffled, resonated chamber design, this exclusive design not only gives the Supersprint exhaust the right sound but also ensures an effective reduction in backpressure, when mated to the full Supersprint system. The Supersprint Right & Left rear mufflers use the Free-Flow design, typical of all of the Supersprint performance systems. Turning the engine on and blipping the gas pedal makes heads turn and jaws drop. No rear muffler or cat-back system alone can equal the deep, sporty sound of the full Supersprint exhaust. While the huge increase in performance is immediately noticeable, the overall sound is also simply amazing. This twin pipe, oversize 2 x 63.5mm exhaust includes special HJS-Emitec Metallic catalytic converters, mid-pipes with built-in "crossover" section (X-pipe), and quad-tip, oval design rear mufflers, each with a straight-thru silencer canister (or dual tip as an option to fit to the stock rear bumper). After all these years, the Supersprint SL 500 exhaust still remains the best, full performance system for this car.
The original Supersprint SL 500 headers was just the first of a long streak of excellent performance headers made for other Mercedes V8 models which followed, all of them designed, developed, tested and produced by Supersprint itself, at the Factory in Italy. Putting its proprietary, patented headers concept to full use, with the world-known individual, multi-piece primary tube design, Supersprint did what virtually anyone thought it was impossible, at the time: building a performance, long-tube headers for the Mercedes V8, 3-valve engine. This has been a premiere in the entire exhaust industry, an innovation which changed the mind of many non-believers, forever. Supersprint has once again put a milestone in the performance exhaust market for the Mercedes cars.īack in the year 2002, the Supersprint R&D crew has designed, developed and crafted a unique, stainless steel full performance exhaust system for the SL 500 V8, with long tube headers and Metallic catalytic converters.
