Kleemann Header review
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well folks ,the install is complete! I Ran it at Moroso on Friday the 13th!!! All went well. It was 70 degrees F. and it was about to rain. And it finally did @ 11:30 pm. I got 3 runs in . Then some body blew an engine ,then the rain. came. Track conditions was not great , do to the weather.
The mph went from 106.2 best run back in December to 108.8 after the headers were installed. 2 1/2 mph increase.
It pulled harder from 5000 thru 6000 rpm. I was pleased!! I also got down into the 12.9s
It did not seem to loose any bottom end power . I still had to ease it off the lights. or the drag radials would go up in smoke, even at 18 psi tire air pressure. My 0-60 times still suck. I just got to get better self control.!! I also did a A-b-A sound pressure test. I had prevoiusly installed a Carlsson Muffler on the stock exhaust system , And used it again with the new headers and 100 cell cats. I have a minor drone about 25 thru 35 mph Light throttle opening. But at Hwy speeds . It was dead nuts the same as before the headers install . Very quiet at hwy speeds.
At wot it will snarl. Stock AMG exhaust under this condition was peak dbs 78.5 Headers with race cats and Carlsson muffler peak dbs 79.5. That was inside the car windows up and using a B & K sound pressure Mike. Not an inexpensive Radio Shack meter. I wish I could have measured it in Sozons. Which is closer to what the ear & brain hears. The header ceramic coating I used , also works well. Under hood temps seem to be down and the motor would cool down between rounds . I will have the dyno results next week . Here is some pictures
