| Does Kleemann make any engine mods for the SLK55? I'll confess, I don't know enough about my car. I had it for 3 days before leaving for business for the past 3 months with 1 more to go I plan to do the Green filters and the Smart Top module, but I'm always interested in more power!!! Thanks |

| Oh WOW, three days and then gone for months. That's got to be tough. How many times have you read the manual? We hope you get home soon and can enjoy that beautiful SLK 55.

| chiwiilia not only that Kleemann transforms your already monsterous SLK55 into a Brutal Contender with a Supercharger there are also Camshafts, Headers, LSD , Springs, bigger brakes and lighter wheels.

| So the Kleemann S1 comes with new electronic fuel injection setup but the Renntech includes the intercooler? Which, in your opinions, is more important/reliable. Thanks guys for the help! |

| As stated both have intercoolers kinda necessary really it helps stop things from going bang so not something they can charge extra for. Its sounds like the Kleemann unit interfaces with the computer to allow it control the pressures so it uses the stock hookups probably and is simply a re-map with a fancy name given to it whereas the Renntech is a self contained unit. Either one should do the trick i think
