bankerkys let me know if you get any info from them about the Mosselman one. I couldn't see a kit for the CLK430, only 320 for some reason. Man, both them and Mosselman have horrible websites.
Maybe time for a 150Shot of Nitrous, haha.
Mosselman got back to me. Here was their response on my CLK430 supercharger inquiry:
"The supercharger system for CLK430 which we had in our programm is not for sale anymore. We are busy with a re-designed system for CLK 320 and CLK430, I hope we can finish it within 8-10 weeks. We are re-developing the supercharegr bracket, piping and software…
If you are interested, you can pre-order the system… If not, please check out our website (news section or mercedes systems) from time to time, we’ll place all info about the new system there."
I e-mailed the rep back and asked him if he had any specs yet. I never found anything on the last system, so I have no idea what these systems are capable of.
I e-mailed a retailer in Florida about the Mosselman kit, and they no longer carry it. They told me that with the current exchange rate, Mosselman systems had gone from $6,500 to $8,000+ for a system (which I suspect they thought was too expensive).

Wonder what their new pricing will be for the 430 kit. And how much gains there are with it. I was told HoP doesn't do Benz anymore so outta luck there, im sure that was old news. Just new to me.
House of Power actually called me back. He has a used system for sale he said but he didn't sound too enthusiastic about it. It's really not a great way they are doing fuel for that kit. Just a rising rate fuel pressure regulator and nothing else. They don't touch the ECU at all.
I'm not too sure about adding an external fuel controller and trying that. I don't know if anyone has.

any one make a bottom end kit. with piston rods crankshaft etc? that with port and polish would be a safe alternate for me maybe with a lil spray like blackbenzz. btw im not talking about bore increase
BUMP!
