with the downpipes it will remove the primary cats as well, if the smell is too bad, or it is too loud in the cabin I will had some high flow (probably 300cell) cats in there somewhere

With no cats you have ro worry about passing inspection, and your cel wull be on unless you tune it to sgut off rear o2 sensors

Curious to see if this a good setup and if these are worth it. Going to stay the NA route down the road and want to get a full exhaust system so I can help the C55 breath a little better.

Damn, that's a nice setup! I am just waiting for that perfect time for a great deal!
Do you have a point of contact that I can call over there?

Thanks.. are you askig for kleemann # or my #? Lol. Guess Im not getting the context. Either way pm me. The thing i dont like about kleemann, is if you are trying to go with a setup not made by them ( example. Asked about an e55 kompressor and just lower the psi to 7) they say it's impossible. And they don't have a dino.. that's why I say i have a chip but not dynotuned... But plus side is I ran my fastest time at bandimere speedway last night(5800ft not sure the d/a) at 13.6 103mph!!!! Can't eait to get my car to sea level!!!

Kleemann. If you have a direct point of contact, that would be great. I'm still trying to figure out if I want to get an exhaust system, chip and dyno tune. Or if I should just keep it as is and save up for a C63.

I'm debating on whether or not I should send out my Kleeman headers to be ceramic coated before installing them.
Has anyone else had them ceramic coated to reduce underhood temps?

Do you happened to have pictures of your car from underneath? And did you use your stock mufflers or aftermarket?

I had the Kleemann headers for my E430 coated by swaintech before they were installed. Seems to keep the heat down quite a bit.

I didn't do a before and after on my E430 but at a local dyno day I was about 50 HP below a couple of stock 55's. On paper without the headers I should have been down about 75 so I picked up around 25 HP or 10%

AMG sold a few F1 Medical Car-edition C55 in Germany. They were equipped
with (snake-)headers before primary cats, and a different software. The cars
had more, like 19 inch wheels and CLK-front etc.
They claimed 400 hp for that version which is a gain of 33 hp.
Kleemann headers deletes the restrictive primaries and in combination with
their software the gains would be in the 43-48 hp range.
