Kleeman K2 on 2003 SL55
Hey guys,
I jsut got my K2 SL55 back this afternoon. Overall, I'm really satisfied with the upgrade. The pull throughout all RPM is unbelievble, however, I'm experiencing 3 issues.
1. The shift from 1st to 2nd seemed to be sluggish occasionaly. Could it be the extra torque?
2. On my 40 miles long trip cruise(top down/AC off) on the freeway today, I could feel this heat coming from the engine bay(never felt these high temp b4) is this normal or a sign of a I/C upgrade?
3. The transmission program seemed to be too aggressive. The car sometime shift from 5th down to 3rd in an already high RPM and the car would only accelerate for a very brief moment b4 shifting up to 4th. B4 the mod the car would jsut downshift to 4th even in the kickdown position. Any advice is appreciated.
