Hello Everyone,

I'm putting up my old Evosport headers and Hennessey pulley for sale. Selling as a package for $3500. Thought I'd formally post here before putting on eBay. PM me if you're interested.

Cheers,

Darren

Good luck selling the items. I notice that you now have K3. Can you tell any difference from K2? Also, did you ever resolve the oil problem?

darren_dallas

Hey Billy,

Good to hear from you. Yes, it was a broken ring. Had that fixed and then put in the cams. No more oil problems

Haven't had a chance to really run the car hard since the cams went it. It pulls like you wouldn't believe though. I'll try to take her to the 1/4 mile track that opens this saturday morning at 9 am just south of Dallas. The temp should be decent as well that early in the morning.

Regards,

Darren

Darren,

Tried to PM you but your box is full.

What does the Kleeman pulley and their cams run? I can't wait to see your new ETs. Btw, I heard the Kleeman cams only add 15rwhp...seems low. My only other experience was with a Supra and it added 45rwhp.

I cleaned out my inbox. Thanks for the heads up...can't expect any offers on the goods with a full inbox

The Kleemann K3 setup costs around $10k (not including LSD). I'm looking forward to getting a true 1/4 mile ET as well. Yeah, the Kleemann cams only add about 15-20 rwhp, but I'm going for all I can get.

Take care,

Darren

darren_dallas - The Kleeman Cams will move the Torque up the RPM range a bit, which should reduce some of the wheel spin at launch. This could be a good thing, since the 55K Motor has more torque, at launch, than the rear tires can handle anyway. The Cams will also allow the 55K motor to RPM a little more, extending the pull further in each gear, which is where the E55 can use the power. Sounds like a great Mod. to me! Let us know how it goes. - Bob

Glad to hear that the problem is now fixed. Good luck in Ennis.

BTW, who did the cam install and did you re-flash the ECU?

darren_dallas

My local MB dealer did the install and we did not flash the ecu (per Kleemann's instructions). Kleemann says it isn't necessary (nor do they have an ecu file for them) as the stock ecu adapts to the additional valve lift, etc.

I would have never thought that an MB dealer would get involved with mods. Glad to hear it, though. Seems to me that by doing the work, they would be more likely to not have negative issues when the warranty is concerned. I consider it to be good news. Maybe I will think about a trip to Colorado next year. I am begining to think that I need a bit more power. Let me know if you think the cams are worth the additional expense and good luck at the track. Looking forward to the results.

I can definitely believe that especially in the midrange rpm's! How much crank/rwhp are your putting down now Darren?

Here is a photo of the headers and pulley. Someone make me an offer and you could have these items for a fraction of what I paid for them. I know you folks aren't shy on here so PM me for more info

Thank you,

darren_dallas - What is the Hennessey "Air-Induction" up-grade that is mentioned, on their Web Site, as part of their "568HP Up Grade"? Also, did they explain why they call it a "568HP Up-Grade" and then say it has a 540 BHP output? - Bob

darren_dallas

EM,

I'm not sure what their air-induction upgrade actually is. I purchased mine through a small company who resold their pulley and the evo headers.

I got 483rwhp with this pulley and these headers (coupled with a Kleemann ecu upgrade) to unleash the power of both.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Darren
