Anyone regret Kleeman mods??
Just got the K2 finished and holy mother of Jesus does this car have power.
Is there such a thing as too much power?
I mean, come on now.. For example, I'm in second gear doing around 45-50mph and step on the gas. Look in the rear view mirror and what do I see? How about two big 60' black strips on the pavement!! I pull back around and examine the marks.. Sure as ****. I mean geez.. First gear is almost a joke. Just try taking off from a stop at 1/3 throttle.. Betcha a glass of water this car can't do it without lighting up the tires.

My '05 SL 55 with K2 mods does the same thing, and you can hear it a block away. Quiet as a churchmouse at light throttle. Do I regret the mods? No, but they can get one in trouble.

I wasn't suggesting that I regret these mods at all. In fact, I'm dying to get my hands on the cams and TB as well. 
I was trying to see if anyone second guessed themselves due to poor hook up on the street.
This car is just so amazing with all the power, sometimes it hooks pretty decent other times it's spin city. Either way I'm heading to the dyno tomorrow AM and seeing what it's putting out with Cory's latest revised K2 computer tune.
I'll be sure to post the graphs tomorrow.
Also, which wheels and tires to get for the track?
