How different do you think it would be as opposed to just slapping on your own S/C, as well as other upgrades ala kleeman or some other vendor?

03 E55 k2; Ford GT
Why 30 K?
Internal engine parts that are hand fit with more presision tolerances, forged not cast and beefed up. A regular engine with a supercharger will not cost you as much but......

But if you notice, he has an ML55 already. He doesnt need a new block..he HAS the hand fit engine block. He just needs the S/C, etc.

As another member mentioned E55 engine without S/C is what you have said above...Kleemanns just ads his own Kompressor, which I believe as reliable a Lysholm (AMG's)...only produces more power...

I would go for Kleemanns S/C!!!
