Power Pulley System

Anyone know if this is a good mod to do on our cars? I was thinking of doing this mod and the SI tune. (As far as performance mods go)

Power Gains:
- W204 C230 : Up to 10 HP
- 1.2S less for 0-100Km

To put it nicely it sounds optimistic

That's the HK guy who sold me my CF spoiler. He said he put that pulley in his wife's C230 and that's the HP and time he claimed...who knows. A bit pricy imo.

Let’s see 980 + 50 shipment = 1030/10= 103.00 per hp


https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...ghlight=pulley

Unless you planning to get a tune done in the future it will be well worth it, the pulley improves low-end torque and also makes the accelerator pedal easier to apply it makes the engine rev quicker to redline.

It will be a nice mod

Not sure I understand the whole pulley thing...it seems like they would help to improve responsiveness but would not improve actually output. Are they underdriving the accessories?

Edit- OK, just missed where it stated the underdrive part...

I have had under drive pulleys on several of my rides and they all made an improvement in hp and tq, so for me I am buying my next from experience!

how easy is these installs? how much 0-100kph[0-60mph] does the abedin reduce? the automotive designs one? Last thing i know about pulley systems, my friend in his 300zx got a new pulley band and it ended up reducing his horsepower, rather than increase. this being a pulley I wonder if it will be mess up as well....

Too many people believe in fairies .You are a marketers dream .

To think you are going to have a 10 HP increase in engine power by fitting the pully is fanciful.

No one has shown any registered before & after pully fitting dyno test results.I look forward to seeing them.
