In the Mercedes AMG GTS, the already outstanding performance of the Mercedes AMG GT is boosted even further with a 4.0-LITER V8 BITURBO ENGINE. With additional highlights that allow configuration of vehicle systems to make it desirous of a race track, the Mercedes AMG GTS is an outstanding expression of the essence of AMG. How could we improve it? Simply by giving her a voice to match the performance and styling!
THE SOUND
High flow catalysts, or decats, open the volume up significantly, while our signature 1D CLR tight radius x pipe raises the pitch to where a supercar should be. Crafted from premium F1 grade, Inconel 625 superalloy, not only vastly reducing weight, but also adds that special tonal quality to the Mercedes that can only be achieved by Kline Inconel range.
THE SPECIFICS
Performance
Replacing the restrictive stock cats with our 100 CPSI race cats, or decats, allows us to open the sound and performance significantly.
Addition of our perfect x pipe geometry enriches the sound effectively widening the soundscape, to give more aggresive midrange and treble tones. The valvetronic rear section integrates the valve control seamlessly to the cars oem functionality, allowing the car to be driven almost silently on valve close, and give a rich barratone aggresive vocal on valve open.
Materials
Available in super light weight f1 grade inconel 625, or 304 stainless steel.
Cross Sections
All cross sections have been incresed over stock by around 10%, to give the best balance of torque, incresed power, enganced sound, and ultimate performance.
The first aspect that caught our attention, the manifolds. Crushed and stunted primaries, the absence of any sort of performance collector, and a 400cpsi catalyst located within the power crucial scavenge zone of the manifold. Clearly there was room for significant improvement. It was clear from the beginning why the factory manifolds were built in this fashion, the clearance between heads, block and chassis is just millimeters, designing anything in this space was going to be a challenge. The stock cats were replaced with long primaries, and motorsport grade collectors, drastically improving torque and power response, and giving a more balanced, yet aggressive sound. Rev response is also greatly improved. (Kline offer an option to fit 100 cpsi cats to the downpipes)
The next point that could be improved, the addition of a 20 degree x pipe to the center section. being a v8 with a cross plane crank configuration, significant additional power is generated by relieving pressure spikes associated with the uneven firing pattern. we also offer the option of a resonated (silenced) or non-resonated center section, to suit sound requirements.
The rear silencer section, working with the cars stock vacuum actuated valve system, we crafted a set of light weight, valvetronic rear silencers. on valve open the system becomes completely freeflow, for optimum performance, and aggressive sound. under valve closure, exhaust gases are diverted through a series of chambers and acoustic filled section, tuned towards low rpm torque, and a very quiet volume at cruising speeds. the rear section comes in two options, a mild sport not under valve closure, and a stock quiet under valve closure.
