No matter what muffler you get, you won't get anything more than slightly lower turbo lag and louder exhaust.

muffler
I would buy an oem also, with the newer diesels, sometimes you never know what will happen if you change something as simple as the muffler. I have a 99 E300 and a 1980 300sd. The 1980 diesel is completely mechanically operated , whereas the 99 diesel is completely computerized. It may change the performace if you use a different muffler. Before I tried it I would call a dealership and ask someone in the service dept.

The Mercedes exhaust is heavy-duty & HEAVY!
However, I like the idea of a straight pipe too in an older car. Loud.

There is a story on this site about straight pipes
I forgot to say that in the technical section of tdiclub.com they have a modified earlier model VW Jetta TDi with a straight pipe which you may find interesting.

you have a gem, 1988
1) It is not encumbered with all the latest complicated electronics. If my memory serves me right this model has around 160 horses.
2) It is not a common rail injection engine.
3) It is not ladden with all that Sierra Club favored "filters" and "catalysts" that are no good for man or beast.
4) It burns anything from peanut oil, KFC secondhand oil to automatic transmissio fluid to used black engine oil (if you dare) while the tree hugging Sierras are crying in their beer.
5) Since it does not have all that latest an-virus-mental crap you can just about do anything to make it go faster, dirtier, smokier and noisest!!!
Right on brother!
