Visiting Kleeman on Monday...Any Questions?
So first off, let me just say that I thought I would post this here since this part of the forum is sponsored by Kleeman and many 63 guys have gone the way of Kleeman for aftermarket parts, etc.
I am traveling to Copenhagen, Denmark for work on Saturday and will be there for a few weeks. I do however, have a couple days free before I have to hit the grind. I decided that I am going to take the 30min stroll north to visit the Kleeman Headquarters. I have sent an e-mail to Kleeman making sure it is ok that I visit, etc. and am still waiting for a response. I believe they will be fine with this as their website encourages people to stop by.
I wanted to get the input of the forum of any questions they would like answered. I was leaning towards more non-technical questions instead of technical questions about specific products, specifications, or specific issues. Though I will be more than happy to collect any/all questions you guys would like me to ask and see how many I can get answered.
I will be trying to take pictures as much as I can (and as much as they will let me).
Hope to get input from everyone on what they would like to know.

Could you ask them where they are at on K4 tune? Apparently it has not been released as they were not happy with the net result. I am wondering if they will be releasing this tune anytime soon as I am considering this or Vath tune which is very similar. Thanks.

Please ask them:
1) Will they ever consider making a short or long header for the C63?
2) Status of throttle bodies.
3) Any other planned engine mods or is this the end of the line since the TT is coming out?
TIA.

Please ask them (as a general question but also specifically re. their tune) about the ability of the tune to properly compensate for the addition of headers (short or long tube) so as to keep AFRs in the optimal range, or if adjustments to the tune are recommended or necessary. Thx.

Added to the list.

On a separate side, but equally awesome note, I just realized that the 2010 Gumball 3000 should be hitting Copenhagen the night of May 2nd and then leave the afternoon of May 3rd for Stockholm. I am going to see if I can call a few people and find out where they are staying...though I think that may be hard, since they don't even tell the gumballers until the day of the leg.
I'm going to try and find the right place and get some pictures. I got a short list of the top luxury hotels in Copenhagen, they will most likely be staying at one of them. Should make for an interesting couple of days.
