I'm thinking of getting this for my 2004 E55. Aside from the obvious power gains, does gas mileage improve? Also, what will this cost me? I'm new to the E55 family, and so far I can say that this is one hell of a car.

Kleemann's Stage 1 is $2,286 according to a price list I received from Cory, albeit a year old. I believe this includes their crank pulley and matched tune. Gas mileage will likely fall a bit, as fueling is increased to compensate for the increased boost pressure of the larger Kleemann crank pulley.

All the Kleemann packages are listed here.

Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for.

I've noticed a lot of good tuners in the northeast and west. I was curious if there are some good tuners in the south (i.e. ATL, Memphis, Nashville, New Orleans, etc.).

If I'm going with a K1 or K2, would I get better results from a local dyno tune or from sending the ECU to Cory @ Kleemann?

Thanks guys.

Dyno tune will give u the most gains...

+1 Dyno tune is always the best way to go, as you get a custom file that works best for your specific car. However, it's usually cheaper to hold off on getting your custom tune until you install all your other mods.

That's what I was thinking. Although, I'm hoping the "mod bug" won't bite me anymore after I get the K2. Famous last words, I know.

Good question about gas mileage. What are people seeing? I was thinking those especially with headers and/or a custom tune.

I've been emailing Kevin at MB of Buckhead about getting a Stage 1 kit and he mentioned they had a proprietary Stage 1 product and the tuning was done there vs. sending the ECU off.

Based on what he said, it seems like their product results in similar HP / TQ gains compared to Kleeman and Evo. I was curious if anyone had given their product a try?
