!!! LETMotorsports Cams !!!
we are proud to release these new cams! 
We have them available for the C32 and the C55...
power gains should be in the 15-25hp range depending on the vehicle, mods, etc...
these will require tuning in order to take advantage of the extra air flow...
pricing: retail $2,500.00
Introductory $2,000.00
we have 5 sets being produced, the introductory pricing will be for these first five sets...
specs forth coming...
if you want in on the introductory pricing, you will need to put up a $500 deposit, first come, first served...

Nice!!! Its good to see the C55 getting some more support. Are there any more parts in the works for a C55? And lastly are there any reliability issues to think about when adding an after market cam?

yup, i will post up a video of the car idling with the cams, they are not lopy at all, they are barely noticeable until you step on the throttle...

no reliability issues at all...
we have some more parts in the works for the C55, but you will have to be patient, we are working as fast as we can...

You may want to check AMG-Jerry's "porting, polishing, and cams" thread, but IIRC it's $1,000 - $1,500 job to have a shop install cams.
So, you're talking about a $3k+ mod, parts & labor, if you're not going to DIY... and camshaft install is typically one of those "professional installation recommended" type of mods, I believe.
Of course, with any modding, the law of diminishing returns starts to kick in eventually... the first $3k you drop into a m112k might net you 50+ rwhp, but the next $3k might only gain an extra 15-20 rwhp...
edit: wawy, just noticed that you're a C55 - YMMV, but I'd guess very similar install costs to what we C32 owners are presented with - maybe someone can chime in if there're any C55 owners who've had cams installed?

G55 & SLK55
I am speaking to my service tech about it.....I might get them if they do not need a retune to a flashed ecu.
