Hello E55 addict,

We are glad you are satisfied with the quality. They are built to withstand pretty much anything you can throw at them and last the life of the vehicle, so only top quality thick materials are used to ensure they meet the demands of these AMG engines.

The headers are 1.75" OD (not 1.75" ID). If the header primaries were any larger you would start to harm torque. Remember, the stock exhaust ports are only 1.5" at the heads so you can only go so big. These are made for the optimal size for our cars and you cannot really go any bigger without starting to harm back pressure. They sure are an upgrade over the stock 1.4" primaries that's for sure

Look forward to hearing your impressions

. Shoot us an email if you need anything. Thanks
