A full titanium valved catback in hand heat-anodised titanium, running from the downpipe back with a Y-pipe split, a rear valved muffler, quad tips and the wireless remote kit supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GLE53 is a heavy car wearing a heavy, restrained factory exhaust. Going titanium rather than stainless changes both at once: the system is dramatically lighter, and the note is sharper and higher-pitched in a way stainless steel cannot reproduce over the M256 inline-six.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMandrel-bent titanium throughout with precision TIG welding, supplied complete with the valve assembly, remote kit and all hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFull Titanium Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAerospace-grade titanium through the pipework, muffler body and tips, for exceptional heat tolerance, corrosion resistance and a significant weight saving over both the factory system and a stainless replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIndependent Varex Valve System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than reusing the restricted factory valves, this system operates its own dedicated valve assembly with complete travel in both directions. Sealed when closed for a quieter OEM+ driving experience, and fully unobstructed when open for a fully aggressive exhaust tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWireless Remote Kit Supplied\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eValve operation is handled entirely by the supplied remote, so the volume is yours to choose rather than the car's. The system does not connect to the factory valve motors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFull Length Y-Pipe Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single large-bore section from the downpipe splits cleanly into twin pipes, keeping flow smooth all the way to the rear muffler and quad outlets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSignature Titanium Exhaust Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSharper, higher-pitched and more exotic than stainless, with cleaner overrun, stronger crackles and a distinctly motorsport tone at high RPM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrecision TIG Welded\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean, strong welds built to handle exhaust temperature cycling and hard driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDirect Bolt-On Fitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFits at the factory mounting points and hangers.

Three options are available:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlue\u003c\/strong\u003e - deep blue through the piping with gold and violet heat banding across the bends and weld lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePurple\u003c\/strong\u003e - rich purple and magenta across the system, the finish shown in our photography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGold\u003c\/strong\u003e - warm bronze and gold dominant, with blue and violet coming through at the bends and weld lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the finish is created by heat, no two systems are identical and the banding will vary slightly from the photographs. That variation is characteristic of anodised titanium rather than a fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e A sharper, louder titanium note with the valves open\u003cbr\u003e Near-standard volume with the valves closed\u003cbr\u003e Significant weight reduction over the factory system\u003cbr\u003e Reduced restriction through the whole rear section\u003cbr\u003e Sharper throttle response\u003cbr\u003e A strong foundation for a tuned M256\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSound Characteristics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eValves Closed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Refined and comfortable cruising tone\u003cbr\u003e Minimal cabin drone\u003cbr\u003e Suited to everyday driving and early starts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eValves Open\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Sharp, high-pitched titanium tone over the M256 inline-six\u003cbr\u003e Increased exhaust volume\u003cbr\u003e Stronger overrun crackle and turbo acoustics\u003cbr\u003e More engaging driving experience throughout the rev range\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMercedes-AMG GLE53 SUV (W167, 2020-2023)\u003cbr\u003eMercedes-AMG GLE53 Coupe (C167, 2020-2023)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3.0L Turbocharged M256 Inline-Six Engine with EQ Boost\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SUV and Coupe share the same exhaust layout, so one system covers both.
