Questions about the C55AMG

While driving home the other night here in So-Cal I noticed a C55 with the Kompressor badging I had not noticed this as a option I'm planning on buying a C55 in the very near future and am wanting to gather as much info as is possible B4 purchasing.

The freeways here in so-cal are like a rolling car show you can literally see almost every form of automobile on 1 day or another.

So with a supercharger or a nitrous system this car would be truly awesome so very curious about kompressor/supercharger.

A supercharger is not a factory option. There are several aftermarket options, and Kleeman makes the best-regarded one. The works will set you back about $25k. Search the forums for Kleeman and you'll find lots of threads. Note that the factory drivetrain warranty becomes pretty worthless if you add a couple hundred horsepower and foot-pounds. And understandably so. Cars like the SL65 have reinforced transmissions and differentials to deal with the extra load. A full-blown Kleeman-modified C55 generates that kind of output.
