2000 CLK55 with Kleemann S/C Kit?
very happy with my W210 E55, but always intended having a supercharged merc. Come across a tidy 2000 CLK55 and thought it would be an ideal supercharging candidate.
Is/was there a s/c kit put out by Kleemann for the CLK55?
If not, has anyone tried adapting the W210 E55 S/C kit to the CLK55?
I understand that Kleemann no longer make the kits for these older cars, so here's hoping I can find one on or off a car.
Cheers

I've just seen more supercharged W209s than W208s but they're both possible. Contact Kleemann and they should tell you everything you need to know.

You can definitely put a Kleemann SC on a CLK55 208. Great fun car if you ask me! Look for the older autorotor models (obviously used). Man I miss that blower. So much fun and not alot of headaches. Just so you know, I was running 10.5 in the 1/4 mile on pump gas with the kleemann sc on my 208 55. I was snapping axles left and right at that point but I think it could've gone faster if I swapped axles and upped the boost.

I like both cars. Just thinking that a CLK coupe is lighter than a C63 coupe and with the SC and other mods it could make more power than a C63, but I'm wondering if it's worth the hassle of adding forced induction.
