Unleash the signature AMG V8 character in your 2013-2018 Mercedes AMG G63 W463 M157 5.5 biturbo engine with Redstar performance exhaust downpipes. Engineered as a direct replacement for the factory downpipes, this system elevates exhaust flow while preserving OE integration and everyday drivability. A proven way to bring out that distinctive burble and crackle from the biturbo G-wagen.
By reducing backpressure, the Redstar downpipes promote faster turbo spool and a crisper throttle response, delivering a clear step-up in performance with a richer, more assertive exhaust note. Optional thermal shielding cuts radiant heat by up to 80% to lower under-bonnet temperatures, supporting reliability and helping protect nearby hoses, wiring, and components. The optimised flow also eases strain on the turbochargers, aiding their service life.
Built from 2.0mm wall 304 stainless steel, every assembly is 100% TIG welded and back purged, with OEM-spec flanges and full bracketry for a 100% bolt-on install. Redstar quality ensures a secure, rattle-free fit that integrates cleanly with the G63 exhaust. Choose catted or competition options to tailor sound and response to your goals.
Available Options
