Kleemann headers AND tuning for $1,500? That's just 
(in a good way) Normal retail for both is probably, what, at least $4-5k? Makes you want to just run out and pick up a 55...

This is the most insane C55 deal ever, Let me get this right Headers and a Tune for 1500? IMO Kleemann has the best, yes 'THE BEST" headers for a C55. If anyone is tossing around mod ideas for their C55 this is were its at, hands down. I would bet you would pick up 35whp with this combo. 35whp for $1500 your not going to get that anywhere.

GMP or Kleemann can you please clarify if by "tuning software" you mean programming the ECU so that a CEL will not show up due to no cats and that's it, or, do you mean programming the ECU to eliminate the CEL + advance timing, remove speed limiter etc?

If you place an order before the end of next week (before Friday, the 23rd of January), I will INCLUDE header specific ECU tuning, meaning, ignition map revisions, fuel mapping, throttle response, VMAX, as well as CEL elimination, etc. After the 23rd, header specific programming will be an additional $500.00
Headers provide gains of 25-30 crank HP (conservatively), and ECU is worth 10-15. You'll see (conservatively) 35-40 HP with this package.

ok so im sold. a few questions tho, does anyone have any pics? is it a direct bolt on for a C55? and i think wawy mentioned downpipes are these included as well? just to clarify, if this deal is going on at all authorized dealers could i head to a dealer and fork up the cash and drive away the same day with no turn around time or does the ecu have to be sent to kleemann directly? sorry for newbin, just wanna be sure. thanks

Here is a very thorough write up/review posted by Alroumi - who is also a member here- when he put them on his SLK55 (same engine as the C55) with plenty of pictures:

It's not a direct bolt-on. It includes downpipes that replace the primary cats and are welded on to the rest of the exhaust. I received my headers and downpipes but have yet to send in my ECU. The ECU has to be sent in because there are O2 sensors for the primary cats and when you replace them with the straight through downpipes a check engine light (cel) will come on. This can be taken care of via the programming. I'm currently scouting out competent shops to do the install and welding for me. If you have a Kleeman dealer in your area I would take it to them...

thanks for the info wawy...C2 designs in tampa is an authorized kleemann dealer and they are about 2 hours away so they would be the ideal shop. Its just i cant afford any down time unless its done over a weekend or so...but none the less this deal is too good to pass up.

What about this a few threads above:
"If you place an order before the end of next week (before Friday, the 23rd of January), I will INCLUDE header specific ECU tuning, meaning, ignition map revisions, fuel mapping, throttle response, VMAX, as well as CEL elimination, etc. After the 23rd, header specific programming will be an additional $500.00"
