Anybody knows about this?

Looks awesome, but I'm afraid it may be not...

Thanks guys. I did a search and find some info on the C63 section.

Nice, but pricey!
Also makes me wonder about compression and transm.

Väth is not too far from me. His products are good, but very, very expensive.

Gentlemen we private label our supercharger systems to Vath. If you have any information we can easily help you, and put you in contact with Vath if needed. Thanks!
