How much real HP?
homeboy is saying his 01' CLS makes over 310hp to the wheels with just headers, exhaust, cold air intake, vafc.
Can anyone confirm something like that? That seems like a ass load of power to be making for just bolt ons.

It will probably make that much at the crank. At the wheels, it's more likely to be around 250 horsepower.

supercharger is good for 50 hp.... headers and intake another 30
So.... that's what about 340 at the crank... over estimate driveline loss at 20% or 68 hp...so we got about 270 with all those mods

He is definitly not putting that down a6 speed with headers and the supercharger is putting down 297 hp i believe
wih the auto since they suck and without the supercarge it only puts down like 240-50 like 98CoupeV6

auto tranny cl's are putting down 200 stock, intake and headers puts down 30 to the wheel. So that's 230 whp for the auto, lets say...add 20 whp and be generous for a 6spd. That's still only 250 whp and a VAFC is not gonna add 60 whp, unless my car has a viper V10 in it and can fly as well.
