New Times in 1/4 mile
For those who are interest in performance times I got some good news! I install the pulley myself on Wednesday and on Friday I went finally to the track! before my pulley my best time was 15.86 and yesterday night I improved a lot almost a second less I did 14.96 in the first run and then in my second 15.1 , but in the second one I think my car was too cold because an accident happened and they closed for 2 hours! I am very happy with that I never think about I can be in the higher 14 seconds! I know maybe I can improved those times a little more if try again after the computer recognized all the boost, but that will be next year after I come back from my vacations
so I think my c230 k is one of the fastest with an auto trasmision!

i am sorry i didn't anwser any question !
This was my fisrt mechanic job in any car! and for me was kind of difficult to get the pullley off! but after sometime trying differents things i did it! The easiest way is to lock the old pulley with two screw drivers and then use a long handle rachet bar! after you do that everything is too easy! good luck and if you have other question ask me i will help you!
How difficult was the pulley install for the auto?
