Hi Guest !
Welcome to the 500Eboard forum.
Since its founding in late 2008, 500Eboard has become the leading resource on the Internet for all things related to the Mercedes-Benz 500E and E500. In recent years, we have also expanded to include the 400E and E420 models, which are directly related to the 500E/E500.
We invite you to browse and take advantage of the information and resources here on the site. If you find helpful information, please register for full membership, and you'll find even more resources available. Feel free to ask questions, and make liberal use of the "Search" function to find answers.
We hope you will become an active contributor to the community!
Sincerely,

Best option: Find a good, rust-free used one for sale by a private party parting out a 400E/E420.
More expensive: Leistung full exhaust.
Cheap: Magnaflow, but it will require mods to get the 2 pieces connected.
Cheaper: Cut out the old and weld in generic replacements.
Can you elaborate on what exactly is wrong with your existing catalysts/pipe?

You can get just the downpipe and catalyst without the rear muffler from Leistung (@5thscaleracer)......
HJS cats from Germany, if you want top of the line cats...but they are pricy. They are very common for high-end exotics and can handle a lot of abuse, but my car deserves the best and got the best. Can’t buy them directly from HJS, but Fabspeed Motorsport in Pennsylvania can get the core from HJS and weld on any end caps you want.
Having said that, these cats are not California Air Resources Board certified (CARB) and not EPA certified. But I passed my smog check in CA, just as long as the smog station does not raise your car to check the cats.

If the factory cars are actually blocked, I don't know any way to clean them.Indy said it was blocked.. but as I am learning it may be possible to clean out the existing one?
new to exhaust parts so learning as I go
Did he provide any details as to how he determined this? Only way I know is with an exhaust backpressure gauge, testing while driving under full load. Should be ±3psi max ahead of the cats.
Leistung.. found Contact Us – Leistung Autohaus but no phone number, no email.. google maps says they are closed...
(I missed the group buy, bad timing)..
