KLEEMANN doesn't make shorties anymore????

What?? When?? And why??

I loved them on my last C63!! Very quiet and understated,..............that is until you "punched it". The Kleemann shorties were great headers. I am just surprised and hurt......which flows into confusion.

What headers to get for my new ride. I'm thinking about jumping to long tubes,but we'll see. I've got my eye on one.

Input please!!! Shorties and longs. Thanks,

-jordan

Still.........input, anyone with some miles that can guide me????

You can always get the PLM log style headers. They are completely bolt on.

I'm thinking of going this route.

i think they found that the power output from them was not all that, 10-20 hp, and they cost way too much for that little increase. a friend of mine has the shorties and a kleemann tune, and i have longs and a kleemann tune, I pull away with ease as speed increases, from start to finish !

Jordan: I have the Kleemann logs and I like them because they pass NV OBDII smog and gives me something over the stock ones. Still waiting for someone to chime in with long tubes and proper tune that will pass OBDII smog before I jump onto to that bandwagon.
