CLK 55 AMG with m113k supercharger + 7g-tronic

Hey,

Has anyone successfully added a supercharger from a m113k engine to the clk55 amg and mated with 7g-tronic? Or m113k with 7g-tronic? Thanks.

Just saw your question and response. Did you really install a supercharger on the CLK55?
I have a 2002 CLK55 and would like to know how it was done and the approx. cost
Thanks
Joe

Correct me if I’m wrong guys, but the max stock torque I’ve seen applied to the the 7 g-tronic (torque converter) is 479 lb-ft? The CLK55 M113 NA w/ an aftermarket SC would be close or over that.

The 2008 E55 w/ M113K made 516 lb-ft w/ the 5G. The 5 g-tronic is rated to handle Over 700 lb-ft, used in the CL65 twin turbo V12 w/ 738 lb-ft. for example. I would stay with the 5G unless a 7G MCT would work?.

Not sure how much horsepower your get from the s/c, but I've heard cost more than $5 thousand
I'm probably going for a tuner program and some kind of improved air filter and exhaust.
With tuning I might get another 15hp or so and better response.
Transmission should be fine for this much more h.p

Horsepower is not the concern with transmissions, it's the torque. The M113's 722.6 transmission can handle over 700 lb-ft of torque so I think you'll be fine.

I just got the Sprint Booster V3 ($300) throttle optimizer and OE Tuner software ($350); feels like a completely different animal! Much much faster out of the gate (no throttle lag) and stays strong throughout the rev range. It feels at least 25% more power at your disposal.

I have BMC AEM dryflow air filters in my car.

As for the exhaust, just have the secondary cats removed (also resonators if you have them on the W208). The rest of the exhaust is fine, don't wast your money like I did on a Lorinser axle back muffler.

for the W209 CLK55? No SC on the CLK55; the OP was just looking into adding an SC. OE Tuning has a price list for other cars with the M113k in their website.
