I hope so. I usually work on Saturdays from like 5:00AM-2:00PM. I might be able to get out of work and show up, or maybe after work I can stop by. What are the times for this event? I'm hoping to come though.

And JamE55, do you have a website or any more info on your car because it sounds sooooo sweet.

looks like a cartoon; Makes me laugh. Thanx. That pic was a throw-away blurry pic too. But I realized if I shrank it and did some image processing, sharpening it while I went, I'd get what you see. OK everyone else, sorry, very OT, I know.

Question

Thread bump

Anyone used one of the authorized Kleemann dealers in the LA area? API Motorsports, DC Performance (seems more like a Viper tuner to me), Lucent Motors, etc.?

Not a lot, just maybe the modest baseline Kompressor install. This is more a 'trial balloon' than anything - just wanted to know who would be a good shop to talk to about it. I am about to re-fi my house and thought, well, this is pretty much my only chance to take a little extra money out and ponder something like this (it's pretty much out of the question otherwise), so I was turning the idea over in my mind. Thanks for the tip about Lucent.

If this kompressor install is for your 2002 CLK55 Cabriolet then it's not possible UNLESS a kleemann owner is selling their s/c kit. The s/c kit for the M113(W208 CLK 55) application has been discontinued and is no longer available. You can try calling the CO headquarters and see if they still have some left although i doubt it. Many of the parts for that car have been discontinued or are being disco. Again call the headquarters directly to find out what's available. Hope this helps.

Your paycheck just went up!

If they still do have a s/c application for the 113's then the kit is most likely a whipple based kit since the twin-screw autorotor has been discontinued. The old one imo is a better kit!

Why not stuff a V12 Bi-Turbo 65 engine instead? You know you just can't get enough of that 604lbs of torque.

You've had that power for a very long time now. I'm surprised you haven't been bored with it already. I'd think you would. True AMG enthusiast!
