Power Pulley upgrade

[speeddemon]

Hi guys
I'm thinking of doing this to my E46 330i and wondering if anyone here has done this before and whether it was worth it or not??
Also it's gonna be my first time ordering something from overseas and would like to know how safe and trustworthy it is to do so...I'm gonna order it from Turner Motorsports....anyone here dealt with them yet?

Thanx:thumb:

im not sure you wan to under drive the cooling system its hot here... i have thought of getting these a few times but im not sure they worth it because you dont get much gain from them...

Good point moranor. I know Skwinty did the pulley upgrade on his Cooper S, not sure if he has cooling problems now.

I have installed a power pulley on my E60 M5, and as to date I have not experienced any problems, but then again it was done by Xcede they did an excellent job.

wouldn’t pulleys on the cooper also include a larger S/C pulley? if it does its not really comparable to the e46... i just dont think they worth the risk for less than 10kw

I see what you mean Moranor...but i thought you're not under driving any of it...:dunno:
I think i have to do more research about it as i def would not want to get overheating problems:thinking:

maybe speak to TM and see if they can do a kit without underdriving the cooling... the alternator should not be a problem unless you have massive sound and im sure you can deal with the power steering being a bit heavier

Anyone knows who stock the power pulleys in Cape town??
