Brad and I have decided that we will take you up on that bet! I know your house is worth much more than this project

I have never replaced an entire SC for anyone in the USA until now.
Good thing I didn't bet big.

Hank,
I have not yet completely 100% decided to get the S/C. If I do, it should be in June (and depends on the wife).

Ahahhaah... good luck! It's gonna be tough to shell out $20k when a woman's nagging.

Retail for the Kleemann supercharger on the 55 engines is $18,795 installed. It's definitely a lot of money, but over $1,200 less than 20k. (I'm not trying to correct you, I just get about 3 calls a week from people who are confused on the pricing).

Jcjmw and many of our Kleemann customers are not California residents. For those who must use a CA address, OC tax is 7.75% (only on parts), which comes to $1,317.11.
Installation takes about 1 week.

SC Swap-
I know I am not talking about swapping out the SC on an E55 but the Kleemann SC project for my vehicle has me on the edge of my seat. (not even sure if it is still active)
So reading through this thread it seems as though one could expect a certain "issue curve" or a grace period where things may or may not be completely satisfactory but everyone involved is working through the issues to find a resolution.
Hank, you seem to be taking it over the edge. Are you saying that there is genuinely a problem with the craftsmanship of the Kleemann product or the workmanship of the people at Evosport?
