I have tried to have the Kleenman HFC fitted to the BS, but the diameter of the HFC is smaller than standard, so I decided not to fit them.

No problem, it shows the SLK55BS has more difference than we all know about.

I've got the Kleemann secondary catalytics which are 3" and 200 cell, when I first started this year a year ago I thought the cats that I installed were for the front but it appears that I never knew until I got my headers that the cats I installed are in fact secondary catalytics.

You can get them at:

Ai Design

C2 Design.

My car is a SLK55 AMG it has all of the Kleemann bolton modifications, nothing to do with the internals or supercharger. The modifications with installation,tax,insurance and freight costs me 9,500-10,000usd.
