Hi there.

May be try CKS Performance: CLICKY LINKY

These guys do lots of mods for Mercedes cars. Engine-wise, for your CL500, they do a superchip (+21bhp), camshafts (+20-30bhp), uprated air filters (+5bhp), free-flow catalytic converter (+20bhp) and customised back boxes (+5bhp). Free-flow cats are £450+VAT. That plus a backbox would increase noise.

Also you could try Plowflow: LINK HERE

I'm not sure if you can get an SL55 sound, but hope this helps!

Darren

If your inlet is like mine then the 2 outer portions of the air intake, the underneath of these unclip.

Unclip these, refit your cold air feeds and then floor the throttle on the road, you will be very pleased.

I'd rather hear the noise and not annoy anyone else.

Dave!
