W203 Eisenmann Exhaust

I just ordered the Eisenmann Hi-Performance exhaust for my 03 C230K sedan, just wondering if i should expect anything unusual with the installation process? Like removing the resonator.....
Any suggestions....


Thanks,

bump for some questions:

for those of you with an eisenmann, please chime in. first the parts: there's the eisenmann exhaust itself, then the metal clamp w/ bolt, and lastly the adapter that fits over the existing pipe and into the eisenmann.

question here is, which way does this adapter really go into the eisenmann? the adapter starts wide and ends smaller (those of you who've done this know what i'm talking about) the start of the eisenmann does the same, wide to smaller pipe.

should i put the small end going in first into the exhaust? so its wider to small -> wider to small? i'll try to post some pics to help clarify things. but here we are to get started. thanks.

again, any help would be appreciated, we're going to be doing some final adjustments tonight. as of now the car was safe to drive away, sounded REAL nice and throaty, gave her a personality at last.

one caveat: the exhaust is a bit loose, we're gonna have it airgunned (the bolt of the eisenmann clamp) tighter as manpower can only go so far. we want it to tightly clamp to the adapter/stock pipe because as of now it CAN be manually slid back and forth, which is why we're wondering if the adapter should be inverted. any input?

did you have to do any rear modifications to the rear bumper to put the exhaust on?
