When are they going to supercharge that engine? At 80K, I think it should have a V8 kompressor

I wonder as well. But I think that if they were to throw a v8 kompressor in there, the price would be way too high for that car.

Isn't that what a CL55 is.. kinda? A CL55 is a supercharged CLK55??? Both are coupes. Although I think that the CL is more based off the S line?? :roll:

Im thinking the CLK chassis cant handle the power, as cant the C55 with out some MAJOR modifications...

[neoprufrok]

Well, I think the only mods would be new diff, better springs and shocks... that's about it.

If you look at Kleemann's S8 k55, they don't do much with the chassis - most of the mods are into the engine. I would imagine that the springs are the most important thing.
