All U Kleemann K2 & K3 Guys w/LSD....
Just picked up my car this afternoon after getting the Kleemann LSD installed. All I can say is WOWWWWWWWWWWW 
Everyone on this board with the K2/K3 mod has always said you better get the LSD to handle all that power.....u all were RIGHT!
The car is amazing when taking off from a stop. I can press the hammer so much more without getting wheel spin and when it happens it goes away so fast. I guess having a 60% lockup makes a huge difference when pushing this much HP & TQ. Haven driven my car with the K2 for several months without LSD I see a huge difference.
I have to agree with everyone, this is a must if you mod your car beyond ECU.

Not a prob....welcome to the club. It's hard to describe sometimes to the guys, but this car totally changes with LSD. Fun factor increases X10.
Here is something that you will love. Someone gives you some crap on the road...when you come to a stoplight.....reach over....click off ESP and punch it..on green....she rolls forward..smokes...and jaws drop. Really fun. Much different than without LSD. Try it.
Enjoy.

....Any noise???No noise based on just driving yesterday but will report back after the weekend. I had my dealer send the diff to Kleemann to install the LSD and then send it back, thus minimizing the chances of something going wrong.
Had a buddy of mine about a month ago have the local dealer install his LSD into hid CL55 and they did not install it right and it made all kinds of noises.

Do you guys know of anyone that makes LSD for CL class? I would love to know. I have a hard time launching my CL65 from 1st gear. Instead of pure rush, its just lame skid city. damn..

Kleemann has an LSD for CL65...may be you'd want to get an ECU as well

Cory is this new? I thought the only AMG that comes with LSD is the SL65.

Ya i am still waiting for their quotation, my initial indicative price that i thought USD2000 is wrong. it could be a lot higher then that over here. moreover its not a new easy, it just reflashing of your current ecu with more performance oriented fuel sipping parameters. i am doing 350km on a full tank now, imagine with ecu flash, i'll be doing 300 or less on full tank! sad..

Yes, I thought only the SL65 AMG has the LSD? The S and CL only has the torque converter. Not real LSD installed. Thats why the SL being almost the same weight as CL could launch 0.2s to 0.3 faster then the CL

I got the LSD installed as well but have a bunch of mods and unfortuantely have the crap contentntials on the car. By BFGs wore out.
I can still smoke the car for 20-40 feet, down from 100+ feet but i think it is all tires.
At 60 mph I went WOT and the car started to slide into an uncoming lane then nicely recovered after 2 feet. Without the LSD I would have crashed my car.
Get it for SAFETY ALONE!!!!!!!!!
