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).

Agreed They will get painted gloss black when the TB goes on.

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.

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.
