Sounds awesome, please do like you stated:

"Greg suggested that we dyno the car before, then with just the dyno comp headers and exhaust, then with the full stage 3 package, cams, tune, airbox..ect."

It would be great to be the first CLS55 in the 10s wouldn't it.

Btw, do you think the MS Exhaust will yield anything big over the factory AMG? I doubt so as more of the gains would be with the X-Pipe and of course LT Headers.

Looking forward to hearing the beast in person and seeing some numbers. It'll be interesting to see if these headers really make the +40 hp

I'd be interested in what kind of results could be had with both those LT's and and simple pulley swap.

Patiently waiting.

And the money back part seems rather interesting. With Dyno's these days fluctuating as much as they do.....the HP guarantee seems rather auspicious.
