frankenstein 2001 CLK 430
i am running the bosch 044, pump with e55k injectors, the pump is very reliable, but noisy, AFRs went to super rich (AFR 9.5~10) without a tune, better to work with a tune esp you will need to retard timing a bit, timing and heat soak are not friends trust me...

keep us posted, i am itching to put my kit back in my car, but i need more fuel. i just had my tranny worked on. the front seal went bad and supossedly when that happens a bushing on the front pump warps, sooooooooo had those replaced and flushed the whole tranny, also had the o-ring on the electrical plug done and the spring in the valve body that is prone to breaking replaced, over $1500 later can anyone say raped. does anyone know anyone that can beef up our trannies? if im going to put back in the s/c i am thinking about taking those precautionary actions and do something with the tranny.

Check with blackbenzz, he knows of some tranny tricks! My supercharger is out getting ported as we speak, so once it gets back I will move on to the next phase.
