Will S55 amg mufflers increase exhaust noise on w211 E500?

I have a 2003 E500, and I've been considering various exhaust options lately. I have recently been wondering if swapping my OEM mufflers for S55 mufflers would give me the noise I am looking for. Any help on this topic would be great, and I am aware that there are many existing threads about exhaust options for my vehicle, but none address this specific option from what I have researched.

I could be wrong but I don't believe that the s class mufflers will fit the E's. I know e55, e63, and c63 mufflers tend to be the best options for direct swap.

Thanks for the reply, I completely forgot to take into account the exhaust diameter! Also, is there any downside to purchasing a used muffler? I found a set of brabus mufflers for sale in Ebay at a decent price, but I'm not certain if I will run into any issued with used products.

I think used mufflers tend to come without problems. You'll never be able to find out if there's anything wrong with it until you actually install and hear it. I purchased my c63 mufflers used and haven't had any problems.
