It´s far away as is at the point.
As i stated in 1st post, slow progress.
this is somewhat in a low priority for me.
I´m installing a dyno in my garage at this point.

This looks like a fun project. I'm in. If manufacturing becomes an issue my old friend Keith Wilson owns Wilson Manifolds. They are legendary stateside and already make all kinds of stuff. We both got our start at Air Speed Engineering working for Dave Jarvis. Maybe I should run a 113 manifold over to him and see what he says

At the time, project is resting.
I can´t find time as the headporting season is getting closer.
I have also installed a dyno in my basement(motorcycle dyno)

I also ran into probems due to TCU unit made problems.
I need to reprogram it or buy a standalone gearbox ecu.
It reached the torquelimit, and by that limited engine output.

Eguals,, lost power!
But a guy here on the board is developing a standaone for our cars, if that get released this winter i might pick up the ball again.

Interesting, you were running an SC and didn't see the same tranny issue?

What other modes are on the car that you are reaching the torque limits? Also if you ever want to see the intake let me know.

As always, keep up the amazingwork. Wish I had your skills.

Nothing strange about that, just me haven´t explained it.
I had with supercharger a 98mm airmeter and capped the signal with piggyback so ecu never saw the high voltage from airmeter.
Then the ecu never reported a high torque to tcu.

Now i want to run std size airmeter as it is always some drawback when modding stuff.
Actually as easy as it takes almost a summer getting the piggy correct and i couldn´t find energy to bare with that, i just wanted to drive .
This summer i just altered injector openingtime with piggy to get correct lambda.
Never altered the airmetervalues.

C55 AMG T with Kleemann K2 and some stuff: 414 hp and 562 Nm :-)
Can´t compare with mine:
Kleemann K2 (headers+tune) 414 hp and 562 Nm, 0-60 about less than 5 sec.
Bolt-on stuff.

He is a swedish engineering genius, wish he could look at mine some time! :-))

430-435hp would be appropiate for the C55 model??

By the way..
Was out tested a clk500 with kleemann supercharger this friday.
Dynoed to 504hp.

Man! it was tired

Leaves me wondering....
Is kleemanns dyno a happydyno or is my c55 running really really good.
Or... the CLK lost a lot of hp since dyno?

Not sure the results you saw were so bad, Per kleeman specs here:


http://catalog.kleemann.dk/catalog/c...5-amg-v8-m113/


500 V8 (M113) KKS
500-K1(KKS): Kleemann Kompressor System and a custom made ECU tune. Up to 455 HP and 585 Nm (433 lb-ft) of torque.
500-K2(KKS): K1 + stainless steel tubular exhaust headers and downpipes. Up to 475 HP and 615 Nm (456 lb-ft) of torque.
500-K3(KKS): K2 + super sport camshafts. Up to 500 HP and 655 Nm (485 lb-ft) of torque.


I give you that not all dyno's are as generous as others, and air quality correction factors if not calculated correctly can also skew these number. But at least you have a reference for when you get your dyno up.

Hey any update? I know you're busy and this is a last priority, just wanted to see if there was any progress. Would you mind sharing the runner lengths and a little info on the build if we wanted to try and duplicate your setup.

Thanks.
