BTW Badblack,
It looks like there is a Supercharger for your car (5.5L M273 V8) here:

I see. I bet the SC would love the cold air, but the cold tires probably wouldn't give me too much traction.

No kidding. Also a little odd that a 3rd party is marketing a Kleemann product that they say is still in development...
so if it's still in development, how do they know the numbers it will put out.

Something doesn't seem righ here... According to the link, it's a Kleemann s/c that puts out 475BHP (crank) but it is no where to be seen on the Kleemann website. However, on the Kleemann site you can get a hi-power kit (ECU tune, headers and cams) for the 550 that will get you 460BHP.
460BHP for $7,650USD
475BHP for $13,000USD

250??? Wow! That kicks the crap out of my 221 I put down today. 250 at the wheels is only something like a 17% drivetrain loss (based on 300bhp). Damn man, that thing has some factory *****!
Edit - Forgot you had the E55K airbox and an ECU tune. Still, a 250whp run is very, very good!

Sorry it's taking so long to get all the info guys. It's been raining in LA so I haven't really tested her out; I want to give her a good run through before I give my review (a new thread will be created; pics and vids will be on there too). I wanted to give you guys a little something, so I scanned my dyno sheet. DC used the middle figure of the three runs (not the high figure or the low figure, the middle figure) for both the Baseline and the Supercharger pulls. Enjoy!
