Pulley and Chip Question
I read a lot of posts talking about how one company is better than the other and this and that. Can someone who has renntech, evosport, asp pulleys say if they like it or not and if they have had problems? Also is software required with pulley upgrade? Obviously you are going to gain from a pulley but I am confused because some say you don't need software and some say you do. It kind of hard to decide what to do. I want to do it the right way. Who is the best pulley and chip maker? I would appreciate any help. ALSO IF ANYONE IS SELLING PULLEYS I AM WILLING TO BUY RIGHT NOW. I HAVE CASH ON HAND. THANKS IN ADVANCE---Afrim D.

all the pulleys are very similar. as far as ECUs go, renntech seems to be trusted alot by more people then others. its also cool because i dont think any of the others take off the rev limiter in neutral so u can redline while reving the engine. not like there is a real need to doing that tho....

I have the EvoSport underdrive pulley kit (ac, power steering, and alternator pulley) and just chipped the car with EuroRev's 91 Octane ECU software and let me tell you it's made a big difference. 
There used to be a lag in the engine when you hit the gas and now it's gone. Due to pullies he adjusted the fuel/air, raised the rev limits, and took the governor to 180mph. 
I don't have a C32 but he also chipped a guy on my crew, his C32 and it made quite a difference and he doesn't have any pullies yet.
IMO, it was worth every penny. Give EuroRev a call and talk to Robert or Jesse.

So due to HIGH shipping to HK, you don't like us. I can deal with that! If it was a product issue, then I would worry!
I sent you a private PM, if there is more to it, then I am happy to help you out.
However, I cannot change the rates UPS charges!
