Kleemann CLK55 vs. C32
Some friendly runs between me and a buddies C32. First clip is heads up from a roll. The rest I gave him a car or the jump, or both, lol. We both had 4 people in our cars. The funniest part was when a WRX backed up at the light to line up with us. He got SMOKED!

Thanks guys. No dyno yet. Getting dyno'd at the AMG event in ATL on Nov.4th and 5th. I also have an appointment at a local dyno for Nov. 11th if I dont get the numbers I expect in ATL I want to get it tuned. If I can find enough time to buy a helmet today I'm going to test and tune tomorrow night. Kleemann stuff: Supercharger, ECU tune, headers, LSD, and springs.

Well the cams barely add any power for alot of $$$ (17hp, 5tq at the crank!)and I didnt know they made a TB for the N/A 5.4L motor (well not N/A anymore but you know what I mean). Got any performance number son the TB and pricing?

The cams are awsome once you hit mid to high rpm. Pulls like a freight. I agree it is expensive but for me it was worth it. Yeah they don't do TB for our application. Mine had to be custom done. If i recall i believe the TB made about 30hp increase. For pricing check with K since again it was all custom and not something offered.

540 crank equals about 450 wheel. Watching the vid again, it certainly seems possible. It would be interesting to watch you line up with a stage one E55. Any way you look at it, that is one damned fast CLK.

Any idea of your IAT temps? Not 100% familiar with your S/C setup but I would say the possibility of a methanol injection into the blower could pick up a few ponies with lowered IAT's increased octane and advanced timing from the methanol. If there is space maybe you could plumb the nozzel right after the TB and right before the S/C. I'm going this route pretty soon. Relatively inexpensive. The 50/50 methanol/H20 mix would mist onto the blowers blades and cool them down a bit. This method has been pretty succesful for many domestic S/C setups and Mario's E55 picked up 40whp..but he had not IC from the begining. I may be completely wrong with this also.
Ported TB is something I will have done as well. I'd look into that also.
