Kleemann Stage 1.5 - with video

[Scorcher]

Decided on the Kleemann headers in the end, so off to Mayfield in Sussex to leave the car in the capable hands of Steen's mechanics.

Front cats were removed and replaced with straight downpipes, and the remap replaced with the Kleemann one, adapted for airbox, headers and pulley.

The result? Ridiculous amounts of torque, smoother delivery and faster acceleration - oh, and a fantastic noise

Here's a little vid for your delectation

...in the next few hours


So it would be rude not to get the pulley fitted in the next couple of weeks, wouldn't it ?

And then it'll be Stage 2 - just in time for Santa Pod on Sept 20th

Wow, that is one great video, I just love your car! Don't suppose they do a kit for the C36

What's the music, sounds very familiar but I can't place it...

That video was great, it was like an advert for it!

I have expected you to be reversing back down the road on the drive by as the sound got louder!

Much better clip than you're average Youtube posting. Cool soundtrack as well.
Car looks and sounds fantastic.

Music is from 28 Weeks Later

Groovy low level shots are thanks to my http://www.stickypod.com/ camera mount - must admit to using the wife's little Panasonic SD digital camera, so not the best quality, but not bad

Waiting for the new design badges

what are the badges like..design wise..kleemann gave the normal K for the bonnet and then comfort power for the wings..did hope they had the Kleemann writing with the K in red and the leemann in silver for the wings..

I'm not entirely sure - according to Steen, Kleemann are having a tart up of their corporate ID, hence the groovy new ads in Merc Enthusiast mag - the emblems are more in keeping with the Mercedes badging, of higher quality and a more appropriate size, IIRC.

That is good to know..the bonnet badges look and feel awful.kept my 3 pointed star intact..used the comfort power badge for the rear quadrant window..got 4..so in and out..looks ok..
