E55 Kleemann K1 Questions
Hi everybody, I'm just a guest in this forum (I do not own an MB yet) and its my first post. I don't know if these questions we already brought up before, but I sreiously need some help. So here they are:
1) Will a K1 upgrade make a huge difference in performance from stock?
2) Would K2 be a lot better than K1 and is it really worth the extra $$$?
3) (This one has probably been discussed already) From some research it appears that the BMW M5 is faster than the E55 as speeds build up (I personally still don't believe that, because E55 has an advatage in torque, something like a 140 lbs of torque), so here is a question, even if the M5 has a slight edge, will the K1 upgrade eliminate that edge? I'm not talking about cornering or handling, just straight line acceleration.
Thanks, I'm just torn between the E55 and an M5, I like both, but I was always an MB guy and still am...
Any input will be appreciated.
