Thanks, do you know if they put a stiffer spring in it like weistec or is it totally stock?

Yes, stock, and after a couple of years have had no problems. A couple of times I have hit my rev limiter and was worried something bad would happen with the belt/tensioner, but fortunately no problems. So far it is still running great but have not had a chance to run it at the local drag strip to compare to pre-SC. I am hoping the Covid situation and track closures will settle down before the AZ heat next summer.

2012 c63 coupe ESS supercharger ARH long Tube Headers SHR Warhawk trans,TCU flash, Weistec pan, LSD,
Has anyone recently had an issue with the injectors leaking from the rails. Mine came with blue O rings, ESS sent thicker black o rings and problem solved. I would also like to thank big Jimbo as your post was helpful to read before I did my install. Car is definitely a different animal now.
