Porsche Carerra downed by SLK32 (Kleemann Custom)
Well...I got my car modded by Kleemann this past week and picked it up Friday morning. Saturday night I was headed out to get some food and came up to a stop light all by myself minding my own business. This was my first race with the new Pulley/ECU upgrade and in the Porsche there were two kids with the window rolled down. They came up next to me and pointed for me to roll down my window....so I did and the driver asks me if I want to go....I just gave a nice smile and said, "Sure".
The light turned green and I left him at the light. By 60mph I had two car lengths on him.....thinking he didn't even try. We pull over and he comes up and says, "What the F**K do you have in that car...you have to be heavily modified"...I laughed and told him what I had done....I then asked him if he had the pedal on the foor and he said, "Yes and the whole time too"
Gentlemen.....I pulled away from this guy like he was standing still. This was the first time got to lay on the gas to really feel what the difference felt like and let me tell you........"This car is so fast it could make a monk kick out a stained glas window!!!"
The tourque is rediculus and Kleemann said that it has the same pull through all gears which scares me. We will be getting the suspension done this week due to the cars rear end getting squirly and wanting to break looses all the way up to 3rd gear. What a difference......this thing is now a rocket and the upgrade IS worth every penny!!
(He was a base model Porsche but they are still pretty quick)
<---The Porsche!
"Which one is better. slk 32 or the slk 55?"<---Pics are up in this thread if you want to see my car

Great kill! But, with all honesty the Carerras aren't the best 0-60 1/4 mile cars. Up top is where they really shine. Although, with your mods you would give him a real good run up top as well.
