CKS Performance offers this Kleeman kit.
I wonder how much experience they have of fitting it?

That's the same kit that Alx had, without wanting to sound rude to them I would be surprised if they have sold any.

Sp!ke,
I agree with SavMan, I don't think they sold (m)any. You may want to try and contact Kleemann in Denmark, as I did, and purchase it direct. It will be a tad cheaper too. The good thing about Kleemann is that everything is high quality and bolts on, so unlike say an AMG s/c off the 55k engine which you can pick up for much cheaper, Kleemann s/c will work out of the box. It has the correct size pulley and pressure not to blow up a N/A engine which has higher compression ratio than the 55k. Shame, as I recently sold my Kleemann s/c kit for a lot less than the screen price. I advertised it here and on ebay but in the end it sold to a guy in Norway.
Anyway, back to the Kleemann s/c kit. I'm not sure they still have all the bits for R129 to make the kit, so your best bet would be to call them and ask. The £15k I mentioned was for the whole thing (manifolds, cams, labour, trip and accomodation). If you want to just have the s/c you can do but temptation of having all the bits fitted while you there is very high. However, it is totally possible to keep the costs down if you're only after the s/c for now. I would recommend getting the manifolds from them as well - supercharged engines don't like the back pressure.
I took some pictures of the s/c when it was removed so if you want to see what makes the kit, PM me your email addy and I will happily email them to you.
