My best stock dyno was 198.8hp at the wheels.



Headers added another ~30hp.

There will always be losses in power. Cls usually run about %25-%30 loss.
Just get some headers and you can make up for some of that loss.

oonowindo,

The headers will give you the most HP for the CL-S. You don't need the exhaust. The CL-S already has a well tuned exhaust. Adding an aftermarket one will only net you 2-3HP.

Look at the CAI's that are available now also. Small 10hp gains are typical.

Sure thing guys!

I'm getting an AEM CAI from www.autocarparts.com and I'll have it dyno'd once it's installed. I like to quantify the gains made w/every mod.
I would like to go to the track before the CAI arrives but it's been raining too much out here so I don't know if I'll make it.

The CAI would probably work better with the headers than by itself. The exhaust on the CL-S is supposed to be a very clean flowing exhaust and is probably not worth the money to have it upgraded.

You do know that all these free-flow bolt-ons can actually improve gas mileage....provided you drive like miss daisy!!! Otherwise, once you get more power...you want to gas it more and more...that's where your mileage goes to hell.

oonowindoo,

Think of the engine as a "water pump". Changing to a less restrictive intake/header/exhaust will increase the efficiency of the "water pump", thus allowing more "water" to flow through, as well as decreasing the work load needed to overcome resistant.
