"Boost kit" for the 32 AMG is likely a pulley kit, or maybe a pulley kit + tune, if I had to guess. Would be good for Kleemann (or one of their dealers) to clarify, however.

IIRC, Jerry P&P'd his heads at the same time as a Schrick cam install, and was concerned that the P&P might've lost power. I don't recall any C32's running Kleemann cams - might have to search the archives

Do you have any additional information/feedback, regarding the cams? Dyno numbers would be great. I would be interested in cams so long as the gains were there. Anything under 20hp to the wheels wouldn't be worth it in my book.
As C32AMG-DTM mentioned, I thought Jerry chalked his low gains up to the P&P.

I contacted Kleemann a while ago and talked briefly about the Cams and if I remember correctly they said approx. 12hp. What it would do on a C32 with several mods would be something of a guess until someone dynos the thing but I would be shocked if you could get more than 20hp.

Thanks for the info. Guess that can be scatched off the potential mod list. What a waste...even if there are more gains than just hp alone. $1900 for ~12hp .

You are not buying that 12hp. You are buying the "KLEEMANN" name . That is also why I chose smaller companies such as LET for my investment

To be honest on the C32's cams aren't really worth it for that much power I agree especially for the price but also take this into consideration. On a car that has 20k miles or more on the car it's suggest to replace the rockers as well since they are broken in already with the factory cams they are used to travel the factory distance and the rockers are not cheap either nor is the labor to install the cams and the rockers. If I owned a C32 with 20k or more miles on it I wouldn't replace the cams if even if they were free.

On normally aspirated engines from MB, the best bang for the buck is a pulley kit and headers and software tuning. Other than that your better of getting a supercharger if its in your budget.

You know, I would previously have agreed with your statement 100% - until Kleemann aggressively discounted their pricing to these current levels.

Pulley & tune "boost kit" is $1,495... that's competitively priced with any MB tuner, even LET/Eurocharged.

FWIW, Schrick cams for the C32 were ~ $1,500 (not sure if they still are, or if they're even available); last year, LET looked into a group buy for C32 cams, but it never got off the ground because they were $2,500 per set IIRC.

Kleemann's LSD also now is $900 - making it the lowest cost option (that I'm aware of) for C32's.

Bottomline, these are damn good prices for high quality MB tuning products, IMHO.

Yes there are more parts on sale but so many it takes time to list them all but I will be posting updates as soon as I get through them. The first page was just pulley kits ECU upgrades and headers NEXT UP KOMPRESSORS!

Does the "boot kit" include the tune? I thought it was separated (additional $895 for the tune). If it's only the pulleys, it 75% more expensive than my 185mm.
