Will the Capristo CLE53 valved exhaust fit my car?

Yes, if your car is a C236 Mercedes-AMG CLE53 coupe. Capristo lists the Capristo CLE53 valved exhaust for the C236 coupe with the 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six. For the A236 Cabriolet or any other CLE model, contact us with your VIN and we will confirm fitment with Capristo before you order.

What does OE Actuators mean?

OE Actuators means this system is configured to work with the CLE53's factory original-equipment valve actuators, instead of relying on separate aftermarket valve hardware. The valves are driven by the car's own actuator hardware, which keeps the installation closer to factory and the operation familiar to the driver.

What are mid-silencer spare pipes?

Mid-silencer spare pipes are Capristo pipe sections that take the place of the factory middle silencer. With the middle silencer out of the system, the Capristo valved rear section does more of the work of shaping the sound, which gives the CLE53 a more open character when the valves are open.

What is the Capristo CLE53 valved exhaust made from?

The Capristo CLE53 valved exhaust is made from the highest-grade T309 (1.4828) stainless steel, an alloy with resonance properties similar to the Inconel used in Formula 1. Capristo craftsmen TIG-weld every joint by hand at the factory in Sundern, Germany, then hand-polish the system to a mirror finish after welding.

How difficult is installation?

Professional installation is recommended. Capristo supplies an installation guide with the system, and a shop experienced with AMG exhaust work can fit the mid-silencer spare pipes and valved section, connect the factory valve actuators, set up the E2E remote kit and confirm valve operation before the car goes back on the road.

Is the Capristo CLE53 valved exhaust covered by a warranty?

Yes. Capristo backs its hardware with a 3-year guarantee from the date of purchase through authorized dealers. Bulletproof Automotive is an authorized Capristo dealer, so your Capristo CLE53 valved exhaust is genuine and covered. Each system is built to order in Germany and ships on backorder once your order is confirmed.

Capristo Valved Exhaust with Mid-Silencer Spare Pipes for C236 Mercedes-AMG CLE53

The Capristo CLE53 valved exhaust gives the C236 Mercedes-AMG CLE53 coupe, with its 3.0-liter turbocharged M256 inline-six, a voice that matches its looks while keeping the factory finishing tips for an understated, stealth appearance. Capristo engineers and builds the system exclusively at its own factory in Sundern, Germany, using 3D laser scanning, CAD design, digital prototyping and CNC bending and milling, then TIG-welds it by hand from the highest-grade T309 (1.4828) stainless steel and polishes it to a mirror finish. Capristo’s own proprietary valves and patented reinforced design, built to eliminate resonance rather than mask it, make it a fitting choice for the CLE owner who wants the car to sound as composed as it looks.

Factory Valve Integration

The Capristo CLE53 valved exhaust is configured for the factory OE valve actuators and keeps the original exhaust finishing tips, so it integrates with the car’s own valve hardware and leaves the rear of the car looking factory. The mid-silencer spare pipes take the place of the factory middle silencer, and Capristo includes its E2E Exhaust Valve Remote Kit for vehicles with electric exhaust valves.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
