I'm waiting to get some slicks before I bother going to the 1/4 mile track. I haven't found a good place to G-tech my car yet.
E-mail me if you want to know what I paid. Although Oberklasse (in Fort Worth Texas) did the MKB work, Evosport can do the MKB components as well.
Just a warning... it's not cheap.

<i>it appeared to me that where the stock car's curve dropped at about 4500 rpms, my car's power curve continued to ascend.</i>
Makes sense since the duration/lift is higher for the MKB cams...it would be even nicer to see a stock CLK430K vs. your CLK430K w/ MKB dyno to see if there is an advantage to running a high duration cam with a kompressor. Either way, I'm sure your car must feel like a friggin sledgehammer when you hit the torque pipe...would love to meet up at a 1/4 mile track one of these days...nice little NA vs Forced Induction battle
btw...how wide of a tire are you running on the CLK430 in the rear? I had been using a 265, but just ordered a set of S-03s in a 245 fore and 275 aft setup.

He has 265 tires in the rear.
Thanks

I want to go with 275's, however, even with my fenders rolled, I don't think they will fit. Tell me if you have any luck.

When I get my C32 I will have to go out west to one of the MBWorld track days. Ask Mach430 about my plans for my C32 , hehe.

That 3 year old is your older brother, that gaucho electrical jeep is you family car (you are in Europe after all) --- untill you can prove otherwise that is what I think.
I 've heard a lot of hot air and a few misinformed posts from you-----I'm sure there are some KLEEMANN guy's with baseball bats looking for you so keep that electrical jeep charged at all times.

Still me and my brother is far older than you, and our "family" car is still bigger and faster than your piece of ****.
It's funny how upset you can be, just because I don't want to take a pic. of my S 50K, where is the pics. of your fantastic car ????? ( ofcause !!!!! when you drive a S50K you have a digital,
when you drive a Smart you don't ).
If you want to play with your self over a S50K, buy your own.

Lucas? How about Pukeas$, ------just as I thought, S50K is your wet dream, how is your Goucho, fully charged?
That electric Goucho makes you Speedy Gonzales. Take it to the KLEEMANN and see what they can do for you, fake exhaust or something.
Why would anybody get upset over your inability to take picture of something you don't have?

Let's just ignore Farting Eddy, thats the best news I have heard in a long time.
I have a question for Mach 430 and Sleestack :
Do you run with the bypass line on the vacuum or pressure side
of your Kleemann systems ????.
Mine is on the pressure side, at first it was at the vacuum side and since we changed to pressure side, the throttle responce is much quicker.
