would there be interest for real performance headers for w202/208 platform?
im having this appointment with this guy who makes custom made headers etc.
since the bulk buy for the shorty headers is a no go i am wondering if there would be interest for some sort of Kleemann header or shorty header.
my car goes in for measurements somewhere next week.
here is his fb adress for some work which he did.
https://www.facebook.com/DJPservices
i understood the Kleeman stuff is no longer available or to be found.
perhaps with like 5 or 10 guys i/we can work something out.
i dont want to spent like thousends of euro's//dollars but a good piece of work can be worth u and my money.
ill update on here as soon as ive been there for the measurements.
im offering my car to this guy so he can make a serious quote on this.
ive also told him i got a spare M113 + transmission if needed.
the hard part would be the part between the frame and downwards.

I'm definitely interested if they fit a RHD vehicle.
I think the best choice would be to contact Ghostrider who has done a simple bolt on option (shortie style). https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...prototype.html
They may not look like much but the larger diameter primary piping along with being a bolt on setup would be more in line with what most on here would be willing to commit too.
Whilst I'd love a set of long tube headers they just aren't financially practical for such a limited production run in a vehicle with such a tight engine bay.
