Mr. Pertplus... Your CLS63 is ready to devour whatever you desire.

Just finished up this beast. Kleemann down pipes and a tune gets you pure insanity.

On our Mustang Dyno:



The sound alone is intoxicating. We hope you enjoy it in great health sir

Wow! Great job as usual ACG!

Congrats Pert! We should do some runs soon to compare Renntech and Kleemann setups.

The numbers in the second column are the "after" column. It put down 519 with the kleeman tune and downpipes.

This mustang ran low when I ran my C63 (supercharged) but as always, what matters to me is the Delta (since raw numbers can always be misleading depending on the dyno).

How much louder than stock with the downpipes? I assume you went catless.

This. For dyno number junkies, our Mustang will certainly break your heart. To be truthful this one reads very low...

When I replied to your pm, I didn't realize you were that close to make a decision. Congrats. I only did the kleemann ecu and I was quite impressed and even scared at first. Can't imagine with the down pipes. Write up something about your impression!

Went catless...and I have to say when I heard the car with just the resonators deleted, it was beastly; so I can only imagine what it sounds like now.
Will definitely take some video/audio to share.

Congrats on the pulling the trigger. I will probably do the same soon.
horsepower wise that is a gain of 83 at the crank (using the % of base line).
Did you get a stage 1 or stage 2? That would appear to be Stage 1 and I would have expected a little more with downpipes.

K2 package (ECU plus downpipes)

Not sure how much the numbers change when used with different octane (my car was ran using 91 octane).
