Latest Kleemann episode... 600+ tq!

The latest Kleemann episode included trick manifolds and ASP accessory/tensioner pulleys installed by Cory and a dyno session that produced some healthy numbers! Just wanted to share with my 55k brotherhood:





Big thanks to Cory for the hookup on the manifolds and quick as all hell install.

And big thanks to Peter and James @ ACG for the hookup on some very quality ASP pulleys (as you all probably know these are a great replacement to the factory failures).

There is nothing different other than Kleemann machines off the raised AMG logo and engraves the Kleemann logo and paints them. I just got a great deal on them so I pulled the trigger.

Tal that is some amazing torque you got there. I need to get my my power mods going. I am just cheap and having hard time pulling the trigger. But I would like to go all Kleeman. I think once this car is not my dd they I will mod. Non the less great numbers and love the surge tanks.

That's very impressive considering the pulley is 168mm. My pulley is 180mm and I don't even get 600.

It's ASP 180 pulley. Tune is by Jeremy of OE tuning. I'm just shy of 600 ft/lbs of torque. Which is still plenty for me. I'm kinda like the "low" torque tune, less ***** to break. I'm very happy with my tune, just a little PO because I forgot to request the second O2 turn off.
