That's for the standard boost pulley. This car, like my old supercharged CL, has the high boost pulley.

My old automatic CL-S made 295whp or 100whp more than stock

 

I had the tendancy of going into 4th instead of 6th from 5th, as you really have to make sure you give the knob a little pull towards the drivers seat when going from 5th->6th.

Steve congrats on the purchase, I like the color.

I'm gonna bet you run similar ET's to your auto, but at 5mph more trap. That thing is gonna be a BITCH to launch out of the hole.

Does it have any susp mods?

 

Suspension mods:

Comptech springs
Koni Yellows
Comptech Sways
Neuspeed Upper Strut Brace

 

damn, he already pimped your ride.

 

4 of these and i'm good to go:

 

Oh snap, yes you can. Just slightly different

I've been thinking of getting PES tags, since my family are members

 

Welcome to the club Steve. A very specific one at that... Maryland AGP 03 CL 6Spd's. Now I have to step up the game with a few mods.

 

Congrats Steve...

I still go into 5th when I meant to go into 3rd every once in awhile..

 

oooo can I be in the club?? Mines not blue (its silver), but I know you guys are above being prejudice about ones color.

 

I know that... I was saying the pic he posted was old.

 

nice purchase....

now just unload your old CL-S and all is well.

 

Congrats mang. Good find. I never even saw that one for sale in the forum.

 

Nice.. Let's not start getting competitive now

 

If it made sense money wise I would trade my car in for an 03 ABP CL-S w/navi and 6 speed of course. I think the Aegean Blue Pearl is the nicest color.....Of course I may be partial to it Congrats on the pruchase. Once the car is detailed its a sight to behold!

 

Forgot about the HBP... it adds that much huh?

 

Nice purchase Cant wait to see it when it's completed

 

Ooo k. You're in. Just don't forget to paint your car.

Steve, how's the short-shifter? Neuspeed I'm guessing.

 

That's because it wasn't posted. We kept it on the D/L

 

Oh it's all in good fun... I won't see the track till the fall.

 

It's shortens the up-and-down throws. I really don't have anything to compare it to but I'm getting the feel for it pretty quickly.

 

Niiiice. Anyway, congratulations on an absolutly awesome purchase! And make sure to have fun

 

you got enough power-use 2nd insted of 1st

 

Yeah I'm sure I could get started off in 2nd just fine once I get the clutch engagement just right. While learning last night I actually started off in 3rd! It was a little rough going but it didn't stall, LOL

 

Gettting use to stick just takes a little practice.... I definitely miss stick since the CL is the first car i own which is auto... With the POS tranny in our cars, its the last car I own auto... Definitely will be going back to stick.... Steve how many clicks on her and $$ with all the toys already attached....

 

31,832 miles when I picked her up last night. I got a really good deal on her too. I paid right around the middle of NADA trade in and retail.

 

CT Flywheel makes a whole different driving experience.

Here's a plate idea for you Steve:

TOXIC CL

 

Steve I almost bought those rims (I like them in the anthracite w/ polished lip), but they didn't come in 17" so I decided against it. I remember they were like 400+ a piece or something!

so when do I get to drive it?

 

Yeah yeah aren't cheap wheels, but I think I can get them a little cheaper than advertised through some "connections"

 

Congrats... After nearly 2 1/2 I still love my CLS 6MT which is fully modded.

 

=d

 

Looks good Steve, now you can head for the twelves.....

 

LOL, That pretty much summed up what I thought after my S/C install in Jan05. The pulls in each gear were so much improved. The car just does not seem as heavy anymore
Welcome back to the boost scene.
I love throwing gears, especially in this car. However, and I don't want to be a killjoy here, but the 6 speed tends to float valves/bend valves occasionally. I don't think I've ever seen a (5AT) member here post about bent valves. Just something to be cognazant (sic) of when ripping up through the RPM's.

Congrats!

 

If its feeling like its shifting itself into the next gear, you've got your car timed perfectly. IMHO I get the best performance out of my car on the street when I can pull that off. In my VW i can do it second as nature, in the Acura I'm getting it down but its still hit or miss.


It takes a high rpm shift to get it right and people will tell you all day how its bad for your linkage and your syncros and starving people in South America but we bought these cars to drive, not to sit idle in our driveways.

 

congrats, try to go for 12's

 

Congrats.

 

I think I'm gonna need a ride in this car now

Congrats on the upgrade
