I'm curious about your turbo setup. Do you have some pics you could post? Any other tid bits too about the build would be cool.

im curious too, since i have a 320 and strive for more power. How much did the turbo cost and how much of a torque increase is there?

im pretty sure the amg is still faster, the amg transmission shifts faster than any human so your car being a manual shouldn't be an adavantage.

SLK32

I have an SLK32.

My best time at the drag strip was 13.0@109.

If I could get a bit more traction the car could run 12.8 stock without a problem. Others have done it.

I am calling BS on the Turbo'd SLK320.

Me too. With only 2 posts by this guy/girl and the grammar, or lack there of, I'm not going to hold my breath for the details.

$2,800 for 80rwhp is cheap, IMHO.

Then give us the details. Is the turbo mounted in the traditional fashion (inside the engine bay) or is it a remote deal (mounted in the rear in place of the muffler)?

Dude, you are confusing me again. What is it..........S/C (stand for supercharger) or turbo? I know Kleeman make supercharger for V6 and V8 But never heard of Kleemann turbo.

A S/C Turbo? Those are two completely different forms of forced induction. The only possible bolt-on that offers a combination of the effects felt from a supercharger and a turbocharger is the centrifugal supercharger, made famous by Vortech. The Kleemann blower, however, is bolted directly onto the motor, where the intake manifold would reside. Perhaps I am merely misinterpreting your post, so please clarify.
