As you can see the airbox is in, they are just working out a few things and hopefully in a couple of days its done.

Kleemann Logo
Told them to put E55 logo like E55, hope they can do that
short update,
Oil cooler bracket is modified and the lines have now a good clearance to the belt.
Installed the condenser and radiator unit back and found finally a good solution to mount the heat exchanger, some modification for the supplied heat exchanger bracket was required but as said turned out well.
The I ordered an extension for the oil filler cap, since 55k front cover is fixed, the stock location of the oil filler cap is too deep and therefore difficult to reach. The part is not expensive, just lifts the filler cap a bit, picture no.17101
Next step is the inter cooler water hoses, we defined the routing of the hoses and location for the pump, next step is to make/ modify the supplied water pump bracket as well for the secondary air injection pump.

So far it looks good, I am going with the Kleemann tradition ( they add a K ) at the end of the model if the car is superchargerd.
and I fit new tyres.

I will skip the red K , its too flashy a more subtle approach is to have the Kleemann emblem in the middle instead of the mercedes one.
Updated : The red K will be removed.
