KEMA

Dear all

Just received an email confirmation from Kleemann in Denmark that they are in the final testing stages of K3 - K6 packages. The email is in Danish but they are confirming the following:

K1 / K2: Known
K3: K1/K2 + crank pulley. Est. 570 HP
K4: K1/K2/K3 + new throttle valves and new improved air filter boxes. Est. 600 HP
K5: K1/K2/K3/K4 + optimized cylinder heads. Est. 620 HP
K6: K1/K2/K3/K4/K5 + optimized camshafts. Est. 630 HP

All HP gains are estimated as they are still fine tuning. Kleemann expects stage 3-6 to be ready end October. I do not know when the new kits will hit the US as this was not specified.

I had my Kleemann K2 visit planned for end October but these new kits certainly have me considering my options.

I will update you as I get more info.

patboyy

Wowo....thats a wonderful news

white_beast

yeah now thats what im talkin about kleeman about to kill most of the other tuners!!! specially that the prices that they give out to customers are very COMP against all the other!!! well done kleeman i want that K4 or K5 depends how the price differs from both!!

Sincity

WOW! Thanks for the update.

KEMA

The price indication is very reasonable for K3 but K4/K5 looks like a significant jump (as do the HP gains).

Again - these are EU prices and historically they do not match US or ROW prices.

Wow indeed. Can't wait to see/hear more about this...

GMP Performance

We are looking forward to this too.

chiromikey

great to hear! now that reputable power will be available, maybe people will quit talking about the scam artists!

JamE55

Does this mean they are now doing Port & Polishing on the heads or what? I'm guessing the cams are billet too and not regrinds correct?

Sincity

Would this allow us to keep up with SC'd E9x M3s?

2K6E55

K6 = 630HP

Siman

I would void my warranty for 630 hp that kind of power eats things alive

Sincity

Hopefully not the trans.

propain

You think this will void my warranty?


For all the people considering. Understand anything above a K1 will void the crap out of your warranty. FYI MB is absurdly expensive to fix.

Cory said K5 and K6 are rumors

kuta01

I thought this could be done by pouring sandblasting sand into the airbox at 5,000 rpm (or was that on a Honda Civic).....

I bet they will even offer K7 with a blower, next year

Oh yes!!! If not, we will wait for K7

MB_Forever

I sure hope not since that seems to be the next logical step in adding power to the 63 engine..... I believe MHP started on theirs already....

We'll see then I guess

The sheer thought of a heads and cam package into that AMG 6.2 is nuts. MHP and Kleemann really want to break open the C63 to see what can be had with the nuclear missile AMG built .

KEMA

The 'rumors' come directly from the Sales and Marketing Director at Kleemann Denmark. I have a written confirmation that they will be ready to offer these packages end October. I even have an offer with pricing on each stage.

Ken

E55AMGFan

If that's true then SC E90 M3s surely don't have a significant advantage if this is available for the C63. I find it more than impressive this car is doing what it is without no Forced Induction.

Z99

So does this mean if I have K2 I am only adding the additional components for k4? Will the trans hold up?

mr-flyer

i dont see any prices listed?

KEMA

Yes - as I understand it all stages are 'add-ons' There were nothing mentioned about rebuilding the trans but it's a good point I will investigate.

I was given permission to share the news however, not the pricing. I can give the following rough indications:

K3 = price of K2 + 1.000 USD
K4 = Price of K2 x 2
K5 = Price of K2 x 3
K6 = K5 + 5.000 USD

All above not including labour.

Disclaimer: the above based on EU prices. If K2 is an indication then we pay about 20% more in EU.
