CLK 55
More pics and another note

The Split second unit is the black box just in front of the ECU plastic box. THe CLK allows for a nice connection. I mounted a PC cooling file to the top to give better cooling. I found that the unit can get too hot in Austin 100 degree driving in traffic.

sounds like airplane
thank you!

it ended up being too late- i already figured out my wire today, and ran the car for a while (drove around town).

This is still VERY valuable information though! Particularly because i'm currently only running the maf scaler (i may need to change units depending on how the dyno information goes)

All of them!
Adding some beef.

Restuffed the wheel wells, 245 40 18 fr. 275 35 18 pilot sports front and rear. Looks bad a$$ but didn't seem to help the traction dept. much if any.

2002 CL500 to CL55 conversion
sorry to dig up an old thread, but how did these boosted n/a engines do in the long run? I hear the rods are the weak spot... im considering doing this to my N/a cl55 clone, with low low boost until i can build the engine
