Hey yeh no word from Kleemann yet.......
I think i will stick with the SC for a while till i need more HP's...

Progress is good,iv just finished fitting the IC + lugs and piping, and mounting the bypass....
have been soo busy,havent had time to post more pics...
Iv still got to get longer bolts for the intake and a small K&N filter for the bypass along with a new oil separator system...
I had to clean all the silicon out of the SC....because i used it as a barrier when i enlargened the intake....but still bits of alloy found there way in......so i carefully washed it all out....
if it does damage there will be lose of boost and MB charge $2000 for a new SC......hope i dont go there....
I really want this done before xmas so i can cruise the beaches!!....its a long shot though..

goodluck with the intake man...
I will post some pics up close of my intake....
I recommend you make a plastic flange and insert wire into it....its a very easy way to see if it will all fit, and easy to adjust to fit perfect.....if i havent thrown it out ill post a pic of it too

also when you pull out the SC you must pull it out with the intake attached.....if you get it on the right angle you should be able to lift up the radiator hose and it should slide out with alittle pressure....but its VERY tricky
put a thin clothe down under where the filter box was and over the side of the chassis to avoid scraping all your paint...
hope that helps alittle.

Regards,
Paul
