hami

at the time when I trapped 117 yes
I got jerry to tune my TCU for me when I launch it on street tires it would slip shifting on second gear and trapped 113 but I wasnt able to get one decent launch on street tires when I changed up the tires I hot lapped it and had constant 12.1X @ 115-116mph I still have to fix the shifting and I am getting a resistor for my MAF hoping its m solution

Yes the car has kleemann cams
Yea I ran it all stock it was my first time on the track I remember running a 13.48 but I dont recall at what speed Im guessing 103 or 104 I need to find the slips to confirm. this was about 3 years ago I only took the car to the track once when it was stock and all I cared about back then were my times

That's awesome, hope it works for you. I'm talking with two different companies now that say they can tune my 7 speed TCU.

blackbenzz

Haha thanks

Yea once Hami's shifting gets sorted that thing is going to fly! Can't believe it's that fast shifting like that. The W209 is heavier than the W208 but I guess the better gearing counterbalances that.

Can't wait to see your track numbers! Good luck
Supercharger alone will not put you at 120 unfortunately. I dug up an old vid on youtube and saw that I was running around 11.8 @ 117 with autorotor Kleemann sc, kleemann headers, and kleemann tune. But that was in a W208. The vid sucks pretty bad haha

Jerry is tuning out of a new place now:

221 Baker Rd.
Building E
Houston, TX 77094

You may want to look him up!

How are y'all reseting all of these adaptations??

betrezra

Thanks GHOST!! Just what I need.

Resetting adaptations using DAS Star - chinese knock off system.

I have some long tube headers and a large MAS sitting on deck for a retune.

Kevwood

Well there you go Jeff - you get all the Jerry and none of the MW

Nachtsturm

Hmmm...probably just stick to N/A then and see how far I get.

However, if I find a kit on the cheap, I might pick it up and join you guys in the fun.

betrezra

There's a klee kit for sale in the for sale section....$4200 complete..... prob get it for $4K CASH !!!

That would be so awesome for my wife's car, but it's definitely a no go on her part. If only I had the money just laying around.

betrezra

WERD Loud! I have thought about that blower kit for our family truckster ML500..... but reality set in...... I don't want to have wrench on 2 cars..... Just 1.

Kevwood

Man that's a great deal, shocked no one has jumped on it yet!

blackbenzz

There is also an autorotor on Ebay for $8k loll

Ghostrider@P1 Performance

Hey, does anyone have a boost-a-pump installed with their system??

betrezra

The klee fuel system includes a Dc-Dc inverter which acts like a boost a pump..... over 4psi of boost it raises the voltage of the stock pump.

You're just a good DA away from 12's brother, don't go S/C on me just yet lol

betrezra

I hear you DRE...... part of me wonders what some add'l compression, p/p heads, and a custom tune would do to max the pot of a n/a combo!

betrezra

Just to keep you clk nuts focused on the real deal dtm... my oh my what I would do for one of these in my drive way!

Just want to confirm..... the BS steering wheel with paddle shifters is plug-and-play in my 04 clk55?


I'm 99% sure, but want to confirm. I might have one coming to my shop very very soon

Nachtsturm

Good D/A in Chicago is few and far between. Hopefully this season, though it being nearly 80 degrees in March. May not look so good.

Let me know how the wavetrac goes...did you ever take yours back to the track?

Thinking about getting one as well. Let me know if you found out, as I am pretty sure its pNp as well.

Kevwood

The BS steering wheel - yes.

The paddles - almost.

Because you have single phase shift buttons and the paddle shifters are simple rocker switches, it is not a straight plug and play swap. However, it is very simple now thanks to a add on module available from DCT;

Now you're ready to go

betrezra

Thx Kev - pm sent to DCT for the converter pricing.

Kevwood

Excellent. If you've got any questions about the wheel swap, I've got a thread up for the swap/conversion. Very simple;

OK so I've been enjoying this ride a daily driver.
Just had an intermittent prob crop up: push throttle down.... and no go... restart car.. all's well. It's done this 2 times now in 2 days.
STAR Says: P0120 Code - M16/6r1 - (Throttle valve actual value potentiometer) Stored.

I ran the Star Diagnostics real-time by pushing the accel pedal to the floor and monitor the values real time with STAR... and it read fine Now.

I'm guessing either the TPS is on it's way out, OR just a computer glitch... OR loose connection @ Throttle Body.

Question - any guesses on above? Car has 39K miles. Seems odd to have a tps go bad already?

How hard is it to change TB and/or TPS on a kleeman blown CLK55?

I'm guessing I'll have to pull the entire blower to get to the TB and/or TPS?....
Hit me up if you know.

It looks like the TPS is integral to the 2004 w209 TB actuator assy.

I'll try to CRC clean the TB connection tomorrow and go from there.

Thx.

blackbenzz

You don't have to pull the blower to get the tb off. Its actually very easy to get off. Use your hand to feel where the four bolts holding the tb on are.
