Perfectly designed for an impressive sensory experience, this beautifully crafted, lightweight exhaust system is constructed from high-quality lightweight titanium and is finished in an eye-catching design with two pairs of titanium and carbon fibre tailpipes for a striking visual impact. A specially designed exhaust valve – with its housing cast in the internal casting – regulates the sound character and is adjusted using the in-house developed Control Kit electronics, allowing the driver to select the level of sportiness with AMG Dynamic Select. The system is an aural treat for all, with settings ranging from the comfortable everyday car mode, with a smooth sound that enhances the car’s engine tones without any discomfort or buzzing, to a sporty acoustic experience with deep mid-tones and a rich high-frequency sound at the top of the rev range to elevate the gearshift experience, delivering incredible pop when overtaking. A different design, construction and configuration to the stock system means the exhaust saves weight and optimises the engine’s power and torque levels, increasing both across the rev range, with increases of 6.4 kW at 6,400 rpm and 9.1 Nm at 6,700 rpm, as measured in consecutive Akrapovic dynamometer tests against a Mercedes-AMG A 45 using a standard stock exhaust. The exhaust gas flow path provides tuning potential, which can be further enhanced with the addition of the optional Downpipe (SS). The system is ECE type-approved for cars fitted with an Otto/petrol particulate filter, but by fitting the optional Downpipe (SS), the ECE type-approval for the Evolution Line (Titanium) exhaust system is no longer valid. When ordering, please be aware that both part numbers, S-ME/TI/12H and L-ME/SS/3, must be ordered because the system is split into two parts for packaging reasons. Installation Notice: This product can be installed on the CLA 45 S Shooting Brake models.
