Sickest CLS in the country right now

[@thiccls3948]

Really appreciate that man, it's not my goal with the car but I also want cls55s to get noticed In the car world, nobody knows about this engines potential

Nice had a e63 amg and fell in love just in time for the head bolts to take a shit sold the car for dirt cheap. Found one of these cls55 for 8 k salvage title 80k miles black on black and red interior what’s it cost in the end for some of these parts installed.?

[@thiccls3948]

If you want to make 500-520whp you're looking at about $4-5k in parts and cooling mods

[@RefinedMayweather]

What it idle at after warm up?

[@kollinlehr]

Thinking about cams in mine with weistec supercharger. How are they for you after this long of owning. Reliable big difference?

[@thiccls3948]

Reliable yes, big difference definitely not, if you're gonna do them then do them for sound only cause you won't get any noticeable power gains and they're a headache to tune because of all the data logging required, the weistec supercharger is definitely a must, huge gains and less heatsoak

@@thiccls3948 nah nowhere near better it’s a reason there swapped on to most 55 cars.

[@thiccls3948]

@@gblikesnikes the reason they're swapped on to most 55 cars is because there's more 63 mufflers available, look up how many c63 mufflers are for sale then look up how many cls55, c63 cars are more common therefore their parts easier to come by, so far 2 people have switched to cls55 mufflers from c63 mufflers after hearing my car, just talking from experience.
