There's no due date. It's unrealistic for me to ask Vadim for a due date when all my mods.. 5.7L motor, upgraded transmission, SLR type coolers.. have not been proven before. No one really knows. It's going to take some time to tune the 5.7L to begin with. Then we'll add the SLR coolers and retune it. Lastly we'll tune the TCU and upgraded transmission. Hopefully everything goes smoothly, but I do expect to have a few issues along the way. The timeline will all depend on the amount of time it takes us to find solutions for issues that pop up.
Yeah, it's been a long road, but it's a great feeling to see each part of this project completed and everything about to come together. The last year and a half was the easy part, now the hard part starts...

Not sure who can tune turbos in place of the Kompressor. My original plan was to add rear mounted turbos blowing into the S/C, but I decided to scrap that idea for now. My mods will be hard enough to tune and that's with the stock S/C.

No, these coolers were built to fit the E55 and SL55. I'm not sure about the CLS55.

Top Mount InterCoolers (TMIC), are designed to fit all 55Ks.
There will some slight differences from chassis to chassis.
I will make a separate post about them with more details shortly.
Thank you everyone for your interest.

Out Of Control!!
Go standalone and then you have a million options of top notch tuners. MB tuners ftl. Tuning a twincharge setup is more difficult than straight turbocharged and IMO only turbo is better.
