Hi all, this is my first post here, and I have to commend and thank everyone that post for their help and information; my hat goes off.

I don't have an SLK 350 yet, I'm still comparing/saving etc...But does anyone know if there are superchargers or turbo kits available? I've done some cursory searches and came up empty handed.

Thanks!

You haven't found any b/c there isn't any, Renntech and Kleemann is working on it as we speak. Stay tuned.

Thanks for the info!

What do you guys think would be the most realistic HP we could achieve out of our SLK350 (via forced induction) without having to modify major components (ie--transmition)?

Thanks!

I think Kleemann is working on a SC for the 350, up to 360hp, pretty much in 55 performance category. I assume you don't have to do anything with the 7G auto trans (same as the one on the 55), but the current MT might need to be modified. This is my guess, I could be off by a 1/4 mile.

Playing around with the numbers for other cars, i would say somewhere around a 30-40% increase in HP and about the same for torque. But this is all WAG-math.
