p.s. - Also wondering how do these compare to the Kleemann camshafts? I want to get either the CKS camshafts or the Kleemann camshafts for my SL 55 within the next 6 months if possible..... thanks for all the help and info guys!

Right now my car is in the shop getting a few cosmetic and performance stuff added, like the EuroTeck carbon rear diffuser, carbon updated arrow type led side mirrors, door panel/rear trunklid spoiler/side and hood slat carbon wrap, brake calipers painted, Quaife LSD installed, eurocharged 180 mm pulley kit in place of the current eurocharged 172 mm pulley, 82 mm throttle body, 2nd cats and resonator delete/straight piped/x-pipe, another ECU/TCU re-flash from Jerry at Eurocharged, and phenolic spacers.....in the next 2 to 3 months I'd like to also get the Kleemann headers and eurocharged carbon intake, then the camshafts last......
