Update MKB-C32

Hi again,

Here some pic's of my C32 at the top speed, the problem I faced when i reach 300 is the cutoff so the speed returned to 295 and so on, I called Mr Pavlos Avramidis and I explained what happened to me he told me that they can rise the RPM to near 7000 and this will help me to get more speed around 15 Km/h.
The real top speed = 289 Km/h on the GPS

This is my car



The header




The Tachoo


close to



And this is my S500 MKB

ok
To convert the speed from Kilometer to Mile
295/1.6= 184 Mile

But the real speed was 289
so it will be 289/1.6= 180.6 Mile

Instead of Outside Temp you should be able to select kph or mph
and display it digitally on the electronic screen shown. We can select on the US cars.

The digital gauge is slightly more accurate than the analog and will match your gps better, unless your tire sizes have caused the error.

In any case, quite fast!

How did the car feel at such high speed?

Hehe, I guess we have a high speed record set for the C32 !
I am also thinking of getting MKB work done. But I need to know if the mods bring a tremendous increase in interior noice. I don"t lke more noise inside the car. Please comment.
Thx.

Cool! I believe the C32 with MKB kits will hit the 315Km/hr, cause my stock C32 reached 290 smoothly.

what type of MKB55 kit you are looking for, the old 55 engine or the new generation?
For the old one next week I will send the ECU of my brother CL55 (360 hp) to reprogram it because he decided to install MKB kit on his car, as I know the car will exceed 305 on the GPS.

My old E55 with MKB kit hit 306 km/h and I tried to take a picture of the GPS put it’s not clear so I’ll try another camera maybe that’s will help me to post the picture.

it is not easy because the car hit the rev when you reach 300, you need to rise the rev to 7000 and that possible, I will send the C32 ECU to modified it.

And soooooon you will see the CL55MKB

Those Porsche guys are reaaly upset about us, the Mercedes fans
MKBC32 can make their king 996TT even plain, not to mention
the NA models.
310+ and said goodbye to a Turbo Porsche, with 4 adults waving
their hands in a C32 ? Too embarrassed for a costy Porsche
turbo owner.
I must admit that I love this scenario.
About the MKB55 kits, I'm interested cuz I left only 100 rpm 5th gear to redline, if Kleemann S/C hits its limitation, the MKB55
kits can help me right there and cut a few more seconds to Vmax.

C32 & C240
MKB-C32 is a god.

I've been working all weekend. Another late night and long week is in store. My C32 is parked outside waiting to take me home at some point tonight. I've been looking forward to my drive home - for a number of reasons.

MKB - you have made my night. I love your posts. I hae the energy to keep working through the night knowing I can drive my C32 home. Thank you for posting and just being you!

Talking RPM at around 6000~6100

Is it possible to run faster?

From the picture u can see that when I reach 295 Km/h the RPM was around 6400-6450 and adding 500 RPM will give you maybe from 10 to 15 Km/h on the Tachometer but the real speed I think it will not exceed 310 Km/h.

You are using 18” wheels and that’s help you to get more speed with low RPM.
290 Km/h -- RPM6100
