These restrictive, log-style manifolds create massive exhaust back pressure, especially under heavy supercharged boost. This dynamic leads to severe heat soak within the engine bay, dangerously elevated exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs), and parasitic pumping losses that rob the supercharged 5.4L powertrain of its true output potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThese mid-length, high-flow exhaust headers utilize wide-diameter primary tubes to smooth exhaust pulsation dynamics and accelerate flow velocity. By increasing the cross-sectional area, these headers drastically reduce back pressure, allowing the supercharger to operate at peak efficiency. Installers can expect gains of up to 15 percent in horsepower and torque on supercharged applications. \u003cem\u003eNotice:\u003c\/em\u003e This is a competition-only upgrade. The header kits include downpipes that must be welded to your existing exhaust system. Due to the universal AMG multi-chassis design, expect tight clearances requiring professional adaptation, particularly around the steering shaft (W211), subframe (W220 \/ C215), transmission tunnel (R230), and tight engine bays (W203).\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n\n  \u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e2006-2006 Mercedes Benz CLS-Class\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eM113K 5.4L V8 Supercharged \/ W219 (C219)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStock Output\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e469 hp \/ 516 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n \n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz SL55 AMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz CLS55 AMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz E55 AMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz C55 AMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz SL500 AMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz CLS500 AMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz E500 AMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eThe Mercedes Benz AMG Caliber\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eDelivering the aggressive V8 exhaust note you demand, this off-road and competition header upgrade unlocks serious supercharged power delivery.
