WTB: RennTech and Kleemann parts for E63

I am looking for any and all performance parts for my '07 E63. I am only interested in RennTech and Kleemann as the manufacturers of these parts though. Please let me know what you have. Thank you!

Used parts rarely show up in the market from either company. Unless you're willing to wait an untold amount of time, and scour ebay and the likes daily, it's best to contact the companies directly and buy new. Just my .02

I understand. My apprehension is that I have head various tales of the power numbers not being accurate (in regards to both manufacturers), and am shooting towards curbing my risk if the parts do not perform as advertised. Living in Indianapolis makes it hard for me to find anyone who actually has these parts on an E63 for me to see if the power and performance is real. Any tips?

I'm with Cory on this one. You have a NSX, E63, and you were a hair close into buying a 360 Modena. How much are you really looking to curb your risk here. This isn't insurance. You claim you're an impulse buyer. So stop waiting, pull the trigger already and pony up. If you wanna play, you gotta pay. You can't go wrong with Kleemann.

I can certainly understand your concerns. The only thing I can recommend is test the car on a dyno before you do any upgrades, and again after the upgrades are performed- be sure to use the same dyno as well- that's going to be your best bet in terms of seeing what you're actually getting. I don't know of any KLEEMANN customers with modified E63's in your area, but there are a few here on the boards- might be a good idea to start a new thread asking for owners impressions, or even searching the forums a bit. I know of a board member here who has a W211 E63 that made about 445 wheel HP after the K2, but I'm not sure what it started with when it was stock, so it's hard to say the exact delta, but even so, 445 to the tires is pretty healthy for a K2 E63- I think it may also have a different air box as well.

At the end of the day, it's alway a risk tuning your car- it's the level of support, and service you get from (fill in the blank) company that's going to make it a good, or bad experience.

Which is why ^^ this man will be the only one touching my cars.

Kleemann FTW! A couple guys in my neck of the woods have K2 63's (a couple C's and a CLS) and they are quick, mean sounding machines

There is a difference between impulsive and being stupid. Plus, I see no problem in making sure that I am getting the most bang for the buck.

With regards to the first part, the issue there is if I already bought the parts, I am kind of up the creek if they do not perform. Hence why I am trying to figure what is real for these. Yes, I agree it is always a risk tuning a car, and I know there is some variance in advertised claims and actual, but I just do not want to see a HUGE gap over the two. Having gone down all of the roads for modification with Acura and BMW, I know who to trust, and who to avoid there. In the world of Mercedes, I am a new fish. LOL!!

Thank you for your input. If you do not mind, I would like to call you and go over the details of your packages. You have been very helpful so far.

And there is a big difference between buying a Ferrari and a Mercedes.

Good luck with your upgrades in the future. Kleemann is a good choice and they will take care of you.

Actually, there is not that big of a difference, my friend. They were only about $12,000 apart at the time. So I do not see your point, if you have one.

I'm not your friend first of all.

Regardless of your whining, I am here to help.

You are right, you are not my friend. My friends are not pretentious *****s, where you are a pretentious *****, and I do not need your help. Whatever I have said that you take as whining I do not know, nor care. Go away. I do not need negative people like you. I simply came here looking for parts, and the only thing you have to offer is a penchant for talking down to people. If you have some problem with me looking for parts, just ignore my thread and take your negativity somewhere else. You obviously have nothing of value to contribute.

If you were really 'here to help', you would at least attempt to act like a civil and decent human being instead of a jerk with Internet Bada$$ syndrome.

Cory...I appreciate speaking with you a few weeks ago, but have not been able to find ANYONE with dyno confirmed numbers for what these K1, K2, and K3 packages produce in actual power for the E63.

Anyone? Anyone?

With K1 I picked up 53hp on a C63 confirmed on same dyno before shipping car to Europe. Done in VA. Will see if I can track down charts. Granted the C-class M156 is slightly detuned from E version, but you are safe with a K1 and Kleeman stands behind their products and has excellent service. You will also notice some improvements in throttle response and general aggressiveness of the motor. No complaints at all with K1 over the year I have had it.

Nope. Mustangs are not my thing.
