You guys better be careful. Some people have had problems with various types of pulleys. Some tuners have installed ones and actually lose HP. Can we see some dyno's?....other info?

i would say that spinning the alt. slower would have an impact on charging.
however- i have roughtly a 1k watt stereo in my Focus. i also have a crank, water pump, and alt pulley- with no issues, outside of headlights that dim just a tad on a low bass note when sitting at a stop light. no problems when the engine is above idle.
not saying the MB won't have any issues, as i don't know a ton about their charging system

these pulleys are designed to maximize the benefits of having less rotational mass on the crank while not going to the point of causing the other accessories to underperform...

dyno dyno dyno How do the weights of the stock vs LET pullies vs evosport's compare?
I noticed evosport's non-amg pullies work for v6s and v8s... Out of sheer curiosity, would these also work for the c55 guys?

Wait, so you'd like us to pay for the Dyno's and return shipping if needed? I think it's your company's job to prove that it works rather than the consumer's responsiblity to disprove the product's performance.

ok, guys, there was a mis-communication on what the pulleys actually were, i assumed something, that is my mistake...
the pulley setup is actually not a crank pulley, it IS a water pump, power steering and alternator pulley...they are bigger and lighter than the factory offering...sorry about the mix up, these are VRP's pulleys and i am one of their distributors...i mis-read an email about them and assumed it was the crank pulley setup...my mistake...
gains are still 10hp, i will post up a dyno graph that they sent me here in a minute! thanks!
