Is Eisenmann the best exhaust out there for w203 ?

Is Eisenmann the best exhaust out there for w203 ? Personally i don't really like the sound for it, way too loud !! I used magna flow exhaust, the sound is deep, not that loud. For a Mercedes, who wants a loud exhaust any way? Try magna flow. I do have mine up for sale though. It is already custom to a quad pipe system only change the tips, cause mine has big tips on them, to match my fabulous kits.

My friends in their Tahoes ride Magnaflow and Borla

Eisenmann exhausts are really nice because you can pick either Sport or Race, and they will fit if you order the right one, all the time.

I was going to put a Borla in my Yukon but ended up going with a stainless Gibson.

Eisenmann is likely not the best. The fit and finish is not always perfect with the Eisenmann. I think it mostly became popular because it's more aggressive than the Remus units. SuperSprint probably makes the "best" exhuast.

Hmmm, nice hidden marketing for your sale.

The "best" exhaust is the one that each individual likes best. I like my Eisenmann, others like their non-Eisenmanns. Thankfully, we have choices.

Choice is bad though, it creates variability and lets people think!
We must end the rebellion!

Took out my my magnaflow system.
$300 + shipping ( Custom works done, why pay $1000 to make it quad pipes)
Just take this one and change the tips.

Sound is deep and perfect for a european cars.

yea, i dont think any exhast has beenable to show gains worth the cost for the exhast. i think its like 1 HP gain or something. However, I personaly think an exhast coupled with a header and or pulley, would show more of a gain over just a header and pully. but i dont know. i dont have an exhast, header or pully for my car yet lol.

Why don't you get an Eisenmann Sport or Race exhaust? They're around $800 plus a couple hundred for install, you can get that for $1000 installed.

They can get you the Eisenmann exhaust, tell them Ricky sent you.
Same with Brabus products.

As for Supersprint - www.evosport.com
tell them I sent you as well. You should get fantastic pricing and service from them both.

By the way, as far as installation, just go to Midas; mine (Eisenmann race) was $75 - no real reason to use a specialized tuner, they'll just rape you.

Kleemann Super Sound Exhaust -- *Sound Clip*

I posted this in the C55/C32 forum, but figured you guys might like to take a look at it as well.

--------------------------------

After several requests, here it is. This clip doesn't even do the exhaust justice (poor quality/optimized for download). IMO, in person it sounds 10x better and at WOT it's a monster!
