Lowering 0 to 60 time and pass smog
I'm in California what performance options do you have for a 2006 cls55 that i can do that won't impact the ability to smog my car? I'm more of a 0 to 60 guy than a top speed guy so want to know what I can do to get the top speed 0 to 60 time down?

At this point, this "recipe" is pretty standard with regards to what works and what doesn't. What is your budget? How fast do you want to go? Spend some time reading through other's build threads and you'll quickly find the answer you're looking for.

budget is probably 10 to 20k or less than an amg gt 63 sedan 🤣, I posted this way because most performance upgrades are about torque and horsepower and thats not all.that equates to a 0 to 60 time.. gearing, weight etc.. sub 4 or 3 would be nice like the amg gt 😁

If you not necessarily looking for more power then weight reduction of sorts and definitely stickier tyres to hook up instantly to get your time down.
