The thing I noticed most is the car pulls harder on the top end...
2nd gear pulls like it's 1st gear and 3rd gear pulls like it's 2nd gear etc. etc..

Also the cold start now... is like an animal waking up, but after warm-up it's no louder then the Kleemann header system was.
And the motor is more responsive at any RPM...

The traction control little orange triangle.. lights up easily now..!

Headers are the missing link of the 2008' CLK63BS.

The Original F1 Safety Car that our cars are based on... had headers.
To many... headers were the missing link of the 2008' CLK63BS's heritage.
We all know a few guys (Jim) here on the forum who tried to purchase them from AMG.
But AMG would never sell a set to anyone here in the USA.

I'm glad I found a place to make them, headers to me... completes the car.
It harkens back to the original Z28 Camaro's that came with the headers "in the trunk".

Just my opinion,
Jim

Can someone post the partnumber for these F1 safetycar headers?

I think your quickest way would be to call AMG directly if your in Europe.
I've never heard or seen anyone give a part number if there is one here on the forum.

Hate to say it.
I think if you do get a price from AMG... you'll be crying when you hear it.
But, I know I''d be one of many who would be curious to know what it is.

Just last year they shipped over 800 sets of just Camaro headers.
They also do custom header work for GM, FORD, CHRYSLER & FIAT.

In fact they were chosen to build the headers for the new COPO Camaro that GM is selling...

Recently purchased set of ARH Headers both side one of tubes touches firewall little concern with possible noise and heat. How was your fit?
