Need Urgent Advice!!!

Hey folks,

I would like to know which IYO is the best sounding exhaust amongst Brabus, Kleemann, and Eisenmann?

Personally i like the Eisenmann RACE exhaust more than all the others, but i'm getting too impatient for that one as it goes on sale only in Jan 2010!!!

If the Eisenmann exhaust is to your liking I would suggest waiting for the sale to save on some funds and get what you wanted.

I haven't heard all the exhaust mentioned myself in person so I'm unable to give you my opinion on which to choose.

In the end its what you like and if you could save some cash also its always a bonus

I don't think this is urgent.

But since you really need to know, you want Flowmaster 40 series mufflers, they will sound sick! We all love them! Brabus and the others have nothing on flowmaster!!!!!!

Hey hutch,

Its a little urgent because i've got to give my car to this guy who's going to fabricate the body kit. And i need to give it to him in another week's time after which he takes 2 months for the body kit. Thanks for your suggestion, i'll check that one out!

As no one to my knowledge has posted any sound clips of Eisenmanns on a 204, hard to judge their sound quality based on anything but rep alone (which actually goes a long way for Eisenmann).

Personally, I'd go with either Eisenmann or Meisterschaft which is what I'm running.

hey Azn,

You're right that there's no Eisenmann on a W204 yet. I had a talk with the director at Eisenmann and he told me that the RACE exhaust would only be available in Jan 2010. Personally i've heard those on a 203 and IMO they sound great. Never heard Meistercraft on Mercs except Nissans and Mustangs so i'll have to check it out. Otherwise i got no choice but to wait for Eisenmann

The eisenmann sounds similar but its more deeper and isn't as raw as this one. Thanks a tonne.

Another thing, would it sound nice with the exhaust and an X-pipe?

Now only if Meistercraft would ship this exhaust to India!!!

Otherwise, Eisenmann it is!

I have had flowmasters on a small block Chevy and they did indeed sound very deep and very nice but didn't think they made "cans" that will fit in place of our existing mufflers. Do you have sound clips?

I'm looking for a deeper exhaust tone at low RPMs but I don't want it to drown out the cabin on the freeway.

If you want Eisenmann then get the C63 exhaust. It's made by them anyways
