I'm looking to upgrade my exhaust system on my 350, I want quad tips.. but Im not sure who to buy the exhaust system from; I see a lot of eisenmann buyers.. any opinions?

IMO the eisenmann exahust sounds the best, at least on my clk55. I just cant get over the crazy price.

Eisenmann or Meisterschaft.

How do you define "best"? Performance, sound, or looks?

MB Love

lol I should've added that, well I'm more interested in performance. I know what eisenmann sounds like and meisterschaft (thanks to youtube O_o) I like eisenmann's sound better.

Spec_Davis

i have to support Meisterchaft

With X-Pipe.

StormTrooperZo

eisenmann but you are paying about a extra 1000 for sound I think the meisterchaft sounds a little ricey

Knightmare69

if I had the money (and engine size) eisenmann or akropovic (spelling?)

StormTrooperZo

Between akrapovic and meisterchaft go meisterchaft they sound the same if looking for sound but akrapovic comes in titanium and is made better but has ugly square tips. IMO its esienmann and akrapovic in one group and meisterchaft and mangaflow in the other and each group is about the same in price meaning group one 3k and group two about 2k and the mangaflow I'm including x-pipe and all the piping

Petje

Akrapovic for sure !!

Knightmare69

They offer Carbon Fiber Round Tips also.

Man you guys are split between LOL tough decisions!

hitokiri89

There is a setup by MEC design its on ebay. It sounds exactly like the eisenmann system, I installed one a while back it was a nice setup. If I was doing it all again I would have went w that setup isntead of my meisterschafts. The tone it gives off is deeper because they use a muffler type resonator instead of pipe, but meisterschaft has the best tips of anybody, girls tell me my C's *** end looks like the space shuttle LOL. If anyone wants the SR stainless steel midpipes I have an extra set never used for dirt cheap from meisterschaft, it replaces the X pipe or stock resonators and makes ita cat back system

I agree Akra is probably tops, but Meisterschaft is just a step behind Eisenmann and is no way at the same level as a Magnaflow. If anything, a closer comparison would be with SuperSprints, but even then I'd still give Meisterschaft a step up. I've listened to an Akra, Meisterschaft, and Eisenmann in person (which is important as there's enough sound distortion on youtube vids to taint sound). Eisenmann has a deeper growl compared to all, with Meisterschaft coming in second, then Akra. Build quality Akra takes the cake. Looks and aesthetics, (this is subjective to everyone's personal tastes) I'd have to go with Meisterschaft with the connected ovals.

I have Vath exhaust, they are the same

Petje

as MEC design, sounds awesome!! They dont have Akra for my CGI. But if they have it i Will def. go for Akra.

I sell Akra for motorcycles, so i know the quality.

StormTrooperZo

Just a little of topic does akrapovic even make one for the c300/350 cause when I was looking all I saw was one for the c63? I even downloaded their app just for the sound clip lol

Knightmare69

Petje, mind posting a sound clip of yours? As my fiancee has a C200 CGi I'm actually looking to get a supersprint but I wanna get an idea of how aftermarket systems will sound on our CGI engines.

MBfinatic

Super sprint makes the best.

Petje

Have made a soundclip but it sounds like sh*t

Will try to make a new one soon.
But it difficult

Petje

to make a good sound clip .

And i also have the cat replaced, so it sound diff than with oem cat.

1) someone pls explain what engine size has to do with eisenmann or akropovic..

2) awesome thread im in the same position except i have a smaller engine being 2.5L. how do you plan to install the exhaust pipes when you purchase it?

3) also can someone explain to me about the x-pipes and the y-pipes ? i dont understand that

Petje

1) they only make exh. for the bigger engines. So it wont fit without modifying

2) 2.5 liter ? What C do you have?

3) X pipe is for 6 cyl. an Y pipe is for the 4 cyl. to go from 1 pipe from the front to a double/quad exhaust
