Weistec Supercharger has reached

After a very long wait
The worlds first Weistec Supercharger has reached, a very special thank you to Ejaz (0-60 Motorsports) and the boys from Weistec for making me the first customer to receive the 3.0 Supercharger

Now let the pics do the talking

Final goodbye to the AMG supercharger and "most" of the Kleemann parts. They've done me well in the past 6 years

Since the internals have never been cleaned, Allen and his crew will be cleaning the entire engine, from top to bottom

The car without the Supercharger, as you can see the AMG S/C on the floor

The engine is extremely dirty, so will keep you all posted on what happens today. Allen, Ejaz and I will be cleaning the engine bay today and all the internals before we finally install and screw in the Weistec parts.

Yup i sure will! Videos will all be added to the thread and all performance figures

Since Weistecs numbers were 574rwhp based on a stock E55 using 91 octane, mine is already a modified SL55 and the parts and SC were built based on my current parts, thats why it took so long to build the custom parts for me. inshallah I'm hoping something in the 650rwhp world
