I thought the 195 mm pulley would've given you a stronger jump in the beginning Great times for no tune though What was the temp and DA during your run?

The pully not going to do a whole lot till the torque managment is addressed.

With a really good tune and a really good launch I predict that you should be able to run 10.8x or better. I would love to have your current et with my current set up.

Jack, you're almost in the 11.60s.... just try Alan's setup this time around and watch it do wonders.

That would be nice, I think this will be my last time out being stock on drag radials as I will start some small mods later on this year. I just talked to my tech and we will hook up this coming week for the engine,trans and rear oil changes that I was suppose to do a couple of months ago. lol I've only driven the car once since my last track day.

You drove it just one time since the last track day? Jack, you need to drive your car a little more than that so you can at least enjoy it before the twin turbos arrive I can't wait to see what you'll do with a stock twin turbo E....

They are from a CLK, however there seems to be at least two diffrent sets, Mine are ET of 46 and are 16x7.5 and on a my bathroom scale showed to be 16.5 pounds(might be wrong) In order to clear the brakes I needed to use a H&R 25mm bolt on spacer. Its tight to the fender but no rubbing noticed.
The other set from what I hear is a ET of around 32 and is 16x7 and is 13.5 pounds. I have have no idea what it would take to make them fit but from what I hear there is issues with the fender clearance. If anyone want to give me a pair of the others I'll gladly figure it out for the rest of you.

I have the exact same wheel, its is off a S Class. I used a 20mm Eibach spacer (cost me more than both alloys), I just clears the brakes, and thanks to you I now know it wont rub when the tryres go on!

Damn those above look very similar to my CLK setup, different around the hub than sneakyneon's though?

Yours & Neon's also have a slightly different pattern in the arch cut outs on actual wheel (bit larger more rounded openings)


Vs mine

Exact same et, weight 7.49 kg/16.5 pounds.

Here in the UK, I have seen similar wheels on SLK (15"),CLK, W211, W220. I suppose they will all differ in size/et.
