amgant said:that does sound goodis there much more noise in the cabin and does it feel any quicker ?
Grovsie31 said:That sounds fab Joe. So its got the headers and downpipes on and looks like an x pipe, is the rest stock? Looks like the secondary cats are still on is the silencer and back boxes still there? Does it feel much quicker than the C55? The colour and those wheels....best looking SLK55 ive seen for me.
Update**
So the ECU was sent away to Kleemann yesterday to remap it again to turn off the EML light.
Nothing wrong with the EC tune, Jerry just can't seem turn off the EML light.
My good man Acid has agreed to refund me the remap money.
Here's a quick clip of how the car sounds with the Kleemann headers & down pipes.

I've recently picked up a low mile SLK 55 AMG and am considering some mods, I wondered if you could help with a few questions? I ideally want lots more noise under acceleration (but not a motorway drone) and a little more power would be nice, so I was thinking of doing x pipe + Headers + remap. I know you have done the x pipe first, then the headers + map - what is the difference in living with them in terms of noise and performance? Also, what should I expect to pay for headers + a remap and where should I go? I'm based in Scotland but would obviously travel for the right tuner. Cheers, A
Hi mate,
Best mod I have carried out on the car was the Kleemann headers/down pipes, you'll need to remap the car to turn off the EML light.
£1600 fitted plus £450-500 for live remap.
Noise is incredible now, cruising on the motorway I'd say there's only a slight increase over standard till you hammer it, then it's LOUD and not just loud it's nice loud but there's no droning when cruising.
I took my car to Olly@PCS who are a Kleemann dealer, they carried out the work and even sent my ECU to Kleemann HQ in Denmark to get mapped.
He can give you a courtesy car while they sort your car out.
Your other option is Acid at MSL who can also supply & fit these Kleemann headers.
Dyno'd my car at SRR the other week and it pushed 406.3HP & 416ibft TQ.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Joe
