I've got the Eurocharged mid-length headers (very similar) on my 2003 E500.
Nice power gains, good welds and proper fitment.
Had them installed at a European specialist garage then flat bedded the car over to a muffler shop for welding in of the downpipes.
Afterwards Eurocharged remapped my ECU tune to compensate for the increased air flow.
Great mod.

I have been happy with them on my 2003 SL55. If you search "Kleemann" in this subforum, you will find more than a few threads with consistanly positive feedback. Purests will (rightly) argue that there is a little more to be gained with long-tubes, but for me and many others, the (mid length) Kleemanns seemed to be the right choice.

here is a link to an earlier discussion on these where I included many pics of my kleemann install including some dyno info, pics of the upgrades I made to the exhaust hanger/strain relief set-up and the v-band clamp set-up I used to make it easy to return to smog compliant (for bi-annual inspetions as required).
