Going to Gen 2 HPS on the E55, ? for Adam

Adam,
Can you verify from the attached if all my parts are there? I'm offering my 7 mo. old system for 4K 100% complete (even an unused spare belt)? The pulley has to be changed for 5.0 or 5.5 engines, I know, but is there anything else a buyer needs? Should be EVERYTHING. Mech Tech was very clean on install and removal (nothing butched). I have a feeling that the 55 is going to make 540+ HP. Brand "K" claims 550 so I think that's reasonable?

RE: Going to Gen 2 HPS on the E55, ? for Adam

Adam,
Thanks for getting back to me. It does appear that everything is there. It will fit E430, E55, CLK430, CLK55, and ML55. Anyone locally who purchases this kit and has the install done at HPS's prefered shop (Mech Tech) Adam has volunteered that extra parts kits are available just in case, but it all looks like it's there. Also, there are no more of the Gen 1 kits available, just spares for warranty. Contact Adam directly at HPS with questions. First 4K takes it.

100% bolt on for your CLK, VDOC. No other parts or pieces should be needed. I don't think it's going to be around long since there are no more of the lower cost 1st gen kits available. The Gen 2 is nice, but $7,500.00 plus tax and install is going to put you in the 9K plus range.

At $4K, someone should grab this quickly. And from my understanding, there are no more Gen 1 HPS kits available...sold out.

Correct. Adam tells me there are a couple left for warranty purposes, but no more for sale. They will be holding on to extra parts and pieces as well, but no more of the casting pieces will be made. The blower itself isn't a problem as far as parts if it ever needed to be re-built. It should last for years anyway.

$4,000 is not too bad for that kit but the new HPS kit is so much better that I'd pay the difference. Any word yet on your new E55 application? Dyno?

Well, I thought it was sold, money on the way. It didn't show, so I sent the guy a message. Never heard back. I don't understand some people!!??? Anyway, still for sale. I will let it go for $3,750.00, no less.
