*** VRP Headers for SLK 32/320 ***
? I am really anxious to see what these will do for this engine, both supercharged and N/A.

Vadim told me they are done and he is picking them up tomorrow. Dyno on Thursday. Hopefully the A/F will be OK and we won't need to look at the injectors.

Sweet!
That still trips me out that by adding headers you would be taxing the injectors. Any idea on why this is happening?

It is not the headers by themselves. If you just add headers to a stock car and pick up say 20 hp, the injectors will be fine. But it seems when you get up to 350 or more rwhp, we might, and I stress might, be at the limits of the fuel system to make any more power. That is why LET is offering new injectors. Vadim however believes the stock injectors are OK. He had his C32 at 400 rwhp with the stock injectors and a good A/F ratio. Hopefully we'll know tomorrow.
They look great Vadim! Thansks

She is a runner and she runs great.
We also did an intake, so now one can hear the exhaust and kompressor together in symphony.
I will post sound clip later.

The intake looks awesome and I like that the tubes got coated....

The list is pretty long...
ECU, pulley, cams, upgraded intercooler with remote reservoir (two pumps), intake, headers, custom exhaust, LSD, brakes, wheels, springs, shocks, cosmetic stuff (grill, antenna, roll bars, wood trim), oil catch can. I think that is pretty much it.
