I believe it only had an Injen CAI. That is a pretty good 1/4 time! There was another CLS that ran a 14.7 with just a Xephr (sp?) CAI.

You do not need to be a member to view that link... it's just that the CL forum is on a Temp host and has restrictions on the amount of simultanious users, so you may get error messages.

Those are some sweet numbers Beiruty..... looking good!

The thing that I hated most is I kept losing traction (Wheel hop in the last 2 runs, breaking loose on 1-2 shift on all runs. Damn.. I lowered to 28 lb in FR tires so I can do moderate Break torque. I think with slicks 14.2s is possible. Also, With Headers and RES we should be running in 13s and having chance beating/Staying with those V8 Camaros... I also beated couple Convertible Mustangs. In addition, I run a Ford Contour SVT ( no right headlights ) and I beated him. He run 15.3s and I was at 14.7.... He stayed with me for a while and I I just pulled over him baddly ( like 5-6 car lengths) in the 3rd.

The last 4 run I was beating a Chevy Extreeme truck We were the only 2 left on the strip... so we had to run against each other.. The guy was pissed when I start leaving him behind at the top of the first....

I also saw an Integra type-R he claimed running 14.4s. He said: Uhh your CL-S is a fast sedan...."... CLS is a coupe...

I hit the Rev Limiter many times...

I had only 3 Galons of Premiun 93 over the Red Light. Acutally I hit the Empty Light in the last 3-4 runs....

I love my Nitto Tires...

I also noticed the same thing one mentioned in 3rd the CLS loses its stream and hence the need of Headers would open it up nicely... Please give me some headers....

Finally, as one noted running the CLS back to back is best.....
