C32 Aftermarket Pulleys

Hello,

How many different companies offer the pulleys for our C32? I think that I have heard of two.

Difference in quality? Performance?

If I get the pulley and air filters what else should I do for an afternoon of modifications. I need to know where to spend my Christmas money. Or at least stimulate the economy a little.

Thanks!

Miguel

code3, LET, evo sport, ASP, I think renntech use to as well. Just do a search man. Code3 is probably the most bang for your buck, but people have been complaining about getting product in Time.

Another good alternative would be a 185mm LET crank pulley.

Miguel,
I never had a shipping problem with Code3. Get the Pulley, the intake and if you're doing a lot of tracking, get the HE.

Be safe, go for K&Ns.

For ECU tuning, I don't recommend PowerChip. You're better off with LET.
Of whom, Code3 is also providing as of late.

Speaking of pullies and evosport, does anyone have any under drive pullies they're happy with? I had evosport on my c280 but don't know anyone using them on a c32 or what's actually available.

+1 but with a clarification - IIRC LET isn't offering C32/SLK32/SRT6 hardware anymore (ever since the original LET went out of business and Jerry and Wayne started a new LET in Chicago). If I'm wrong, so is their website (they're now just a distributor for Code 3 hardware for M112K's - one item which they appear to sell cheaper than Code 3 directly )

So, for someone to pick up an LET crank pulley kit for a C32, presumably they'd have to buy it used, unless uninstalled NIB ones pop up

If you go LET 185, I wouldn't buy used. There is a recall and an updated part for them. As mentioned, C3P pulley is the best bang for the buck. Stay away from ASP and Evosport underdrive pulleys on a 32...just my opinion.

i think jerry still had a couple of around. I remember a few posts back you can get them if you PM'ed him. He was trying to work something out with his fabricator to continue to offer them. Not sure how far it went though.

We still have a few kits left...

I removed the products from the website until the new bearings arrive.

We redesigned the 185 kits from the ground up.
