After climbing off the Gixxer, everything seems slow. That is, until you run across BlackBenzz. The Kleemann website has what you're looking for.

there's really nothing that will put you back in your seat when you floor it except for adding a S/C.

here are the most popular mods though:

* green filters or K&N
* AMG airbox (best bang for the buck)
* headers
* exhaust
* ECU Tune ( i found this to be a very nice mod for the price)
* sprint booster

how much does the kleeman ECU upgrade cost? i assume this means they replace the "brain" of the car with a completely new one, and does this also remove the electronically limited top speed? they claim a 10% increase in hp for the standard V6.

* Stack aluminum spoiler
* Aerodynamic bodykits
* Big Loud Exhaust
* Altezza lights
* Lots of neon lights and some APC stickers from Schucks

Now this is no easy project so go easy on the stickers

$1000.00 It will not add 10%, more like 10-15 HP at best. Yes, it does remove the speed limiter and we also change throttle mapping for much improved throttle response.

from what I have learned, you would be better off getting rid of the 430 and buying a 55. The cost of a supercharger is a lot of $$..the 55 is a better option, then you can really do some crazy things with it. Adding a S/C to a 55 will make a really fast car.

the Speed Innovation ECU Tune runs $695. +22HP +24 TQ on 91 octane. +26 HP, +28 on 93 Octane.

PM me for more details on where to get this tune for the best price.

Where is the best place to pick up the AMG airbox? Then do you put a K&N in the new box?

[slickclk430]
