Awesome car! I'm dropping mine off Monday to get Kleemannized!

Yes, very SWEET!

That Corvette Z06 they talk about, the driver must not know how to shift because I have seen Z06's do low 12's in the 1/4 ....

All i can say is AMAZING!

A couple of follow up questions for KLEEMANN:

The ET on the referenced drag strip test is good, but the trap speed (111 mph) seems quite low considering the 12.4 ET; the fact that stock CLK55's trap around 107; and the power on tap. Is there some reason for this, or how does this trap speed compare with what you've seen in the past?

The dyno rwhp (411) is only marginally better than the power produced by Sleestack's 430 Kompressor (395). Is this because the 55 had not yet been tuned as stated on the webpage, or does the Kleemann system produce more of an increase on the 430 than the 55 (whether due to increased boost or some other reason)? Or are Sleestack's results atypical for a 430 (higher, that is)? Thanks!

Ronnie,

Sleestack was beating 55's before he had his Kleemann put on. He had cams, headers, and a 3.07 differential. Both cars are beasts, but the 55K will win everytime. That dyno of 411HP to the wheels stated (on the webpage) that the AC was on. We have dyno tested a CLK55K and got 437 to the wheels. The increaed engine displacement also allows for much more torque to be produced.

If you look at my signature you will se that I had several MKB components installed prior to the Kleemann SC (the headers cams and 3.07 differential being the most significant). The gains I got from the MKB components translated over very well after the Kleemann was installed. The Kleemann SC forces the air in and the MKB components let my engine breathe much better.

Sleestack · 03-26-2002, 01:24 PM

The 437 Mach 430 is talking about represents a peak number. My peak number on my best dyno run is 399 at the rear wheel. The torque number is where difference is greater. I wish someone with a 55 would do the MKB hypertune kit and the Kleemann SC... that would be insanity.

Thanks for the clarifications guys. I forgot Sleestack had some major engine mods before getting kompressed. I still don't understand that trap speed though. I could understand a 13.0 ET and 117 trap (due to no traction early) much better than a 12.4 and 111. Strange. But then again that page claims a Z06 ran a 13.2 at 102, and that's even stranger.

Ben, did your latest MH-Dezent order already go in, or is there still time to get on the hood bandwagon?

The launch of the CLK55K is with little 50% throttle until about 35 mhp- then you can go to the floor SMOOTHLY. It wouldnt be a lie to say that 1/8th of the 1/4 mile is done with less than full throttle.

411 rwhp is a low reading- after tuning the number went to 433 ( the AC was on during the 411 run as well.. ooops.) Sleestacks 430 has significant top end breathing advantage over stock. That differential was maintained before and after "Kleemanizing" proof that the components are working.
