You could have used a heat gun to loosen the glue on the stock tb..at this point you have to go to the stealership, I think it's like 100$

The "Plenum" - is it the "snout" where the TB attaches to?
If so i'd want to bore that out and use a self-made plate like in the guide linked.
So now some people say the wiring is plug and play, others say it isn't. What is true?
I bought the original MB TB.
BTW: What size TB does my CL55AMG normally have? Some say 76mm, some say 80mm ?

SO no clear guide for that?
I guess i will check the WIS. Any other good ideas on maintenance while that thing is out?
I plan on doing a SC oil-change with JET-A oil. Should i do any bearings while its out?

^ Not exactly true.
This was the first "adapter-less" 82mm install.

TTM sells a complete kit based on this, or they could fab the plenum/inlet for you.
