Oh, that sounds and looks good!


Is there any way to make that blower scream?

Marcin-

Do you have IAT data at the apex of the dyno pull, and also what the temps were cruising on the dyno before the run started?

Speedriven1

Sure ill put up more graphs soon.

Speedriven1

It's actually pretty loud in person. At higher rpm it screams!

I like the appearance with the stock air boxes or still allowing a twin intake better than Weistec's. How much for the kit?

RaFFi ///AMG

So which one made more power? The stock intake or the dual cone filter set up? Love the look of the set ups.

I forgot to ask, what size TB are you guys running?

Speedriven1

We are still working on definitive results on the stock air boxes. I noticed on the dyno that with the stock air box the black coupling between the tb Y pipe and the air box would start to collapse at wot. So what I'd like to do is put a vac gauge at couple places to see where the data goes. Pricing will range depending on what options one will order the kit with. But base price will be $6000-$6000 up to roughly $8k with every option.

At lower boost (10-11psi 500whp) there really was no definitive difference between the intakes. But with a smaller pulley we noticed the soft piping started to collapse and hold us back. We are looking into making a new tb Y-pipe and replace the soft piping with hard pipe and see where we end up with some fresh K&Ns.

The car had MBH headers, Eurocharged 82mm tb kit, FTP rail/injectors, trunk tank and H/E (unsure of brand) when it came in for the kit. We machine the tb snout without a flange. That allows us to weld on whatever flange one would want to order the kit with. If you have a MB tb or Audi or any other brand there would be no need for any adapter plate. I'd also like to try a BBK 90mm setup but I'm a bit concerned with the idle code issue that some people are experiencing even with some 82mm setup.

We also have a car scheduled to be delivered that will be getting a kit along with a set of pistons. That car will be setup to run between 22-25psi.

Was that done with stock injectors you know.

PACougar

Idle code is easily fixed with STAR, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

TECHNICIAN

Details?

PACougar

Raise the idle and it'll fall within the desired TB opening.

Tech-Tune

^Confirmed... This fixed my issue

Guessing the stock intercooler is used also?

PACougar

They said it isn't, however the new one is similar sized.

TECHNICIAN

Thanks

MACH-E55

We want more updates!!!!! we want more, we want more!!!!

AMGSC

Do you guys plan on developing a kit for the M113 NA motors like the W210, W209 and even W203 AMGs or are you letting Weistec explore that market?

I would think an affordable kit for these older M113 engines would be an attractrive market if the kit is priced like you mentioned.

Speedriven1

Yes sir we are

AMGSC

COMPETITION! That's the American way. The market will be grateful that finally these older cars will be able to keep up with the newer models!

Who wants another car payment each month when these fully paid off cars will have an extended excitement factor for another few years!

Thanks you Speedriven for introducing serious competition to Weistec and to some degree Kleemann although I think their new Eaton blowers are not as efficient or powerful. Renntech lysholm/IHI SC kits are way overpriced and too small to generate any meaningful power. Brabus is not known for SC kits so not much of a challenge to this market.

Excellent Input...,,

fully agreed with you,,

Thankss for sharing....

ZAYED,,

Let me ask if my wife wants to let me use her cls500 as a test car

but i feel a coming on when i do

Speedriven1

Lol its your call
