The ecu has a base file in it right now, so 580-600rwhp is my guess. It has not been dyno tuned yet but when it does, I will drop the graph in this thread.

Thanks <chawkins

Thank your for honesty, You are 1 of the pioneers of M113k performance development like Blackbenz & Centerline & others , I've been going back & forth about going to the next level with a Weistec 3.0 supercharger up grade.. With these CLS's becoming a novelty supercar & now a legitimate keeper & potentially a modern day classic .. I've talked to weistec several times & they've said with my engine set up hp @ crank 700 to 735 . It just makes logical since just build this engine ,instead buying something else & a "new car payment " ... just spend 6,000 to ,9,000 and I'm @ the 700+ power range on 93 octane gas . Its literally a no brainer.. " I can't wait to the dyno #'s mustang or dyno-jet

Here is a dyno sheet of the CLS at 17-18lbs on the Weistec. The wavy graph is due to me having the hoosier slicks on the carat the time of the dyno tune, and there was wheel spin on the rollers.

Tony at RACEIQ tuned her!
