whats the 0-60 of klemann CLK32K , brabus CLK32 and renntech CLK32?

will they be faster than a c32 AMG?

and how much HP each have?

and how much each cost ?

Only the original C32 is a C32. Brabus and renntech would be mods. Not a C32. The TRUE AMG has different internal components DESIGNED to handle the additional torq. You can "aftermarket" modify using Kleeman, renntech, and others but your value drops like a rock. In my opinion the loss in value isn't worth any cost savings. Just bite the bullet and buy the real thing!

hi

i know about that....but you can bring your [/SIZE]CLK320 to klemann,brabus or rentech and boost the HP to around 300+ ....and they call it CLK32K....

so im just asking how much 0-60 of the CLK 320 thats modded by brabus etc.... , and is it faster than a c-class c32 AMG 4-door sedan....which is sold by MBUSA.....
its just for comparison

its a CLK that i want

im just trying to comapre a modded CLk 320 to a c32 in terms of speed as maybe i want to upgrade my CLK hp...

staying in school is very important isnt it guys?!

a Kleemann C32k makes about 330 hp and is slower than the C32 AMG. The CLK is heavier than the C-class, what do you think? Kleemann calls their cars with a "k" after the first two number, so you should call it a CLK32k Kleemann. Kleemann is the only company (not sure) other than AMG (nowaday) uses the s/c tuning method.

If you send it to Brabus, they probably bored out the displacement, so it wouldn't be a 3.2 liter anymore. It's not going to be call a CLK32.

If you send it to Carlsson, they don't usually have a name for their cars after the mods. Renntech usually don't have name for their cars either.

As far as I know Brabus has many different version of the C-class. The fastest Brabus C is indeed faster than the C32 AMG, but that's with a V8 engine stuffed into the C-class coupe.

Tezta

Brabus has a simple peformance kit (camshafts, valve springs, exhaust) for the CLK320 which boosts hp to 235 for about 5K.

If you want something with more power you can have them increase displacement to 3.8liters which will offer 272hp and 281 lb-ft for 14,900 plus 1215 for installation.

I think Car and driver did a test on a C32K kleemann and the 0-60 time came out to 6 seconds. The C32 is what? Around 5 seconds?

FrankW

yep cuz all Kleemann did was intercooler and s/c. AMG did a lot more with the C32 AMG.

Well, Frank & Tezta tell a few about the upgrade of 3.2 V6.

C32AMG is the King out of any tuning in the "V6 family"
(not include SLK32)
CLK320+K is similar to C320+K, HEAVIER and SLOWER.

one member here has done the Kleemann CLK32K (W209)
1.5s slower than the C32AMG
0.8s slower than the Kleemann C32K (0~60 mph)
Another member is going to upgrade Carlsson CM32K (W208)
supercharge solution as well, not know the difference yet.

W 203 and 209 are quite in the same weight class, if the 209 is o,8 sec. slower than a 203, I would suspect something was out of tune in the 209.
