Dropped the Beast off at C2Design this morning and handed over the key.
Will be brought in and placed on the lift and operation begins 1st thing Monday morning. More pics and updates as the job progresses.
good stuff starts post 37, 45, etc
There are a ton of pics and pages and videos...don't miss any
pics start post 32 and 35 and 39. Yes, it was time. Must go faster. Stinger almost had as much horsepower as me (NOT). So ecu being overnighted to Kleemann today. An optimized ECU software upgrade tune + a set of stainless steel tubular exhaust headers, downpipes and straight pipe being...
Good point: may need the Nurburgring rated suspension found in the P030 package, should be straight swap; in addition to the LSD. Otherwise it will be hard going around corners at reasonable velocity without the rear wanting to spin out.
On my 50 mile +/- trek to work I have several options 2 lane country roads to start, then 4 lane State Route and more straight country roads or 20 mile stretch of nothing but turns and hills, when I drive the SLK I always opt for the turns and hills, I know there are cars that handle better than the 55 but these cars are no slouch in the turns especially when compared to my Lincoln MKS (which handles nicely) and Crew cab F150. To put it another way I love curves and corners in my SLK. :grin:
to JBanks. Love your mods. Living in California with their very strict vehicle pollution and inspection rules, I can only dream of doing the improvements you have done on your car. I believe your SLK55 AMG will turn out great. Keep us posted on your adventures. Wishing I could do the same, but I can dream, can't I.
Thanks Andy.
I have already told them to test the **** out of it and they said they always do!
