Contemplating an Eisenmann exhaust system for the 230SL.  Anyone with experience or feedback?

I have no experience with that one but my mechanic (and others in our group ) swear by Timevalve.
I just put one in...

I have heard it personally, it is slightly louder and I think tinnier (is that a word?).  I thought it, instead of rumbled , it sounded metallic.
Sorry that is the best description I can give.

I have a Timevalve system in my 280SL. Not a great fit. Durable, since it's stainless, but there may be better ones out there. The fit was poor to say the least.
