The VA Motorsports Catless Downpipes for the Mercedes-Benz M276 engine give your AMG or 43-series model the power, sound, and response it’s been waiting for. Built for the X253 GLC43, W205 C43, W213 E400, and E43, these downpipes remove the bottleneck holding back your twin-turbo V6—letting the engine breathe freely and come alive under throttle.

By taking out the factory catalytic converters, you free up exhaust flow, cut backpressure, and let the turbos spool faster. That change alone brings sharper throttle response, more mid-range punch, and a noticeable bump in both horsepower and torque. The car feels quicker, more alert, and far more eager to rev. It’s the kind of difference you don’t just measure—you feel it every time you put your foot down.

Then there’s the sound. With the restrictions gone, the exhaust tone shifts from muted to menacing. You get a deeper, more aggressive note that actually matches the way the car looks and drives. Cold starts have more presence, downshifts crackle, and acceleration carries that unmistakable AMG bark—but without anything artificial added in.

These downpipes are built from high-grade 304 stainless steel, TIG-welded for strength and mandrel-bent to keep airflow smooth. The design is clean and efficient, built to handle the heat and pressure of spirited driving without giving up over time. There’s no coating, no excess flash—just strong, reliable construction that does the job.

Made specifically for M276-powered cars, this setup fits right into the factory system and pairs well with performance tuning. When tuned, the gains stack up fast—better turbo efficiency, cooler exhaust temps, and a smoother overall power curve. It’s the kind of upgrade that wakes the car up and makes the driving experience feel more connected.

If you’re driving a GLC43, C43, or E43 and still running the stock setup, this is your chance to let that V6 twin-turbo actually perform like it’s supposed to. Power, sound, and response—all improved in one simple move. This is what the M276 should’ve sounded like from the start.

Material

304 Stainless Steel

PREPREG is a common term for a reinforcing fabric such carbon which has been pre-impregnated with a resin system. This resin system (typically epoxy) already includes the proper curing agent. As a result, the prepreg is ready to be laid into the mold without the addition of any more resin. In order for the laminate to cure, an autoclave production process is used, a combination of high pressure and heat.

  • Maximum strength and performance characterictics. In a hand layup production process, it is difficult to achieve 50% fabric and 50% resin content.  Typical hand laminates, even when vacuum bagged, end up with a significant amount of excess resin. Excess resin increases brittleness and reduces overall strength properties. On the other hand, most prepregs contain around 35% resin. This is ideal for maximum cured properties and generally impossible to achieve in normal hand lamination.
  • Uniformity and repeatability. The prepreg is of uniform thickness and each part coming out of the mold may theoretically be the same. Vacuum bagging technology may have some errors in processing, but prepreg ensures production consistency.
  • Reduce curing time. After the thermal curing cycle, no need to wait for the standard 48 hours can be fully cured.
  • Aesthetics. Although prepreg processing still requires mold preparation and demoulding, prepreg processing eliminates air bubbles, makes it easier to obtain a smooth, glossy surface as well as eliminates any seaming lines.
