Update on Evosport Underdrive pulley kit

Well, its been a few months and about 5000 miles since I got my pulleys. I have taken it to Las Vegas, San Francisco, SLO, San Diego, and all over LA. And...I have to say I really think they help out a lot. It was really hot this summer and ever since the pulley kit, it makes driving easier with the A/C on. It doesnt seem to drain my power as much. Also, my car is faster in all the gears. I have tested my car against my friends cars and it has gotten faster. So, bascially Im happy with it and I feel that it was worth the money.

I guess since I have a C240 I dont have much hp to begin with and every little bit helps.

Why not get a C320?

If you're gonna spend all that money on your long list of modifications, why didn't you spend the extra money to get a C320? It's a pretty quick little car with that engine.

Car looks great. What king of brakes are you running? I saw something red. How did you get the whole grill black? Can you paint over chrome? Keep up the good work.

as far as the grill, you can sand down the grill, chrome part included, and then prime it and paint it, thats how i did mine, seems to be working quite well, sorry no pics yet, soon though.....

Im sure there is. My car isnt supercharged. Its a underdrive pulley kit which changes the pulleys for the water pump, alternator, and power steering I think. I forget.

The grill was done the way Petie said. Just sand it down, primer and paint. Also, I just painted my calipers for fun. Im not going to repaint them anymore. Just gonna save up for a big brake kit.

I had no idea they took a pic of my car. I was like whoa when I saw it. LOL.
