Correction - Renntech uses AMG kompressors and intercoolers that you will find on W211 E55s. They run at 12 psi to make 500HP, Kleemann uses Lysholm kompressor in their own intercooler housing and they run at 7 psi to make 500HP.

RENNTech uses a larger housing supercharger then Kleeman, the supercharger is more efficient and doesnt need to be boosting as much to generate more power... it also runs cooler then the Kleeman charger!!!

Yes, they are. However, AMG buys kompressors from IHI in Japan, that licenses their production from Lysholm. Both, AMG and Kleemann are called twin-screw kompressors. Both are very similar, however Kleemann uses a lot more efficient intercooler cores that allows them to make same power with less boost.

p.s. renntech does not always use the amg ihi blower and intercooler. they have their own blower which they use on the more impressive vehicles.

If tne Kleemann car made the power they all talk about iit would have killed the renntech car but it did not even get close.

RENNtech uses the AMB blowers for it's high boost applications only.
Maybe now they are using something else. I have yet to see any dyno graphs or any other data to confirm their performance.

In the past I have seen several cars done by Renntech with AMG blowers on stock engines with smaller crankshaft pulley to reduce the boost.

When my car is done, sometimes next week I will post up all the dyno result (nos off) and then we will have the dyno for a Renntech C55 - I'll list all the mods...

The test I am talking about is the Car and Driver shoot out. The RENNTech CL55 was faster than the Kleemann SL55 from 100-150 and that is where power comes out. THe CL55 was faster than the SL55 and the SL was claimed to have more power and a ton more tq. Maybe this kleemann car was over rated? I would go with that.
I dont store threads everywhere but I have seen threads in other forums where S500's and G500's with Kleemann blowers were making no where near what kleemann claimed. Smoke and mirrors.

The E500 test car (his wifes car) had the non IHI blower on it and it went on a auto show tour and I also drove it. That car was a whole lot more fun than my E55... just as fast to with less power. It actually turned!
that CLK55 car was on e-bay a while back...
