Yes an ECU flash will be part of the pulley kit and downtime will be minimal im sure because all he needs is to make a positive id of the belt size.... If we can get this project rolling it is going to kick ***....pulley + ecu upgrade not alot of $$$...

Just to make this clear (because my cover's clearly blown...)

1) I didn't initiate this thread - an enthusiast did (xXM271Xx), so for the record, I'm only replying to help the people of interest. I didn't intend for any projects to travel where I'm not a full sponsor (for obvious reasons).
2) Discussions via PM will probably be helpful.
3) Primary contact information is above, if you choose to use it.

With all that said...actually I don't have to say much more.

Cheers,
flip

i honestly think its a small thing to ask for a donor car and then be banned. im surprised no one has come forward yet to help out other m271 owners

Sounds like you are having a bit of trouble, can you be a bit more specific about the information needed, that is are you looking for the belt width and length ? If so why no buy one from the local MB dealer and get the size that way. Just a suggestion?

As has been said, it's for an aftermarket pulley setup - going to an MB dealer would be just as much help as going to a BMW dealer.

Someone really should step up to the plate. You M271 owners need all the help you can get.

Honestly, it would be better if it was in-house under complete supervision. I'll keep that in mind though.
