He didn't ask about a w203 pulley, he asked about a 03+ 1.8 pulley, also in the 230k model. And yes, you can. Kleemann doesnt seem to have one, but you can get a powerchip from evosport thats good for +18hp and +19 lb ft of torque (according to them). Renntech does make an 1.8 pulley system but their stuff seems to be overpriced. Don't sweat the 'general', he was ...trying...to be helpful.

The 1.8 supercharger can very easily be changed for a smaller pulley, just in 18 months no one seems to have done it. Just shaving a mm off the OD would help.

I think it is Carlsson and Renntech that currently have pullies for the '03+, I might be wrong, but I also believe it is the SC pulley, not the crank pulley, that is changed for the '03+

Hi, this is my first post on this forum. I recently purchased a 04' c230 coupe.
I was under the impression that the 1.8L engine could not be pullyed, because out of the factory it was already running about 11 psi of boost. It seems to me that anything more than this would probably cause the supercharger to turn into one big heat pump, which wouldnt be good at all.

You can look at their website for the kit.

He has the C230 not C180, same engine but diferent levels of boost. There is a RennTech kit available for 2200 for the crank pulley and one or two others, plus ECU upgrade and Exhaust and Intake. Look at the other W203 Forum in the Engine Performance section for the information on it. Supposed gains of 20Hp and 20 Ft-lbs. roughly, can't remember exact figures.

Sorry if the topic has been discussed over and over again. From where I am (Sydney), I have been told that there are no engine mods available for the 1.8L C200K.
My local tuner told me that theres a kit for both C180K and C230K Coupebut not the c200K sedan.
I looked at the Carlsson site and found a kit for the 1.8L engine that would give 144kw at the engine.
It's hard to get my hands on any tuning parts here
My apologies for asking dumb questions
