My pulleys will be installed this Friday. More info after that.
Look like the stock ones (reason because like it) and give you a little less power than the EvoSprot ones.

More info i.e.:

im interested in buying one too but i have 2 questions.

1. Has anyone experienced any engine malfunctions are problems related to the pulley or since you got the pulley done?


2. Have you had any problems with the dealership when taking your car in for service?


Thanks.

also, the EVOSport ones in addition to give you more power are cheaper and lighter.

I know my401, he has those upgrades on his car, he drives it often and with no problems, he even broke into the 12s on street tires, so I'd say, go for it!
Renntech products are what you paid for, excellent products.

Ben, I was referring cheaper = less costly or expensive.
For me both (RENNtech and EVOsport) look awesome and excellent qualities. Therefore it is just customer preference.


left stock, right RENNtech.

The Evo ones up and stock down.

Bye.

So then how do the Renntech ones look like stock when ours don't? If anything there are 3 pins which are visible on the front of their crank pulley where the ring is attached.

The last pulley kit that I have installed for Renntech only had 2 pins on the pulley. I have 3 pins on my pulley.

What is the corrected horsepower? That is the only way we all have a clean reference.

Ben,

Can you explain the difference between your Kit and Renntech? I noticed they modify the ECU and you do not.. why is that? Also, can you compare HP/TQ between your kit vs. theirs? If there is another post outlining this, please direct me towards it..

Do you have any Dyno Graphs you can post? A before and after would be great!

Thanks

Michael

Cars and boats!
Thumbs up

my cousin has an 03' C32 with RENNTech ECU and Pulley kit with Nitto NT555R drag radials.... I would say he runs the car pretty hard and puts quite the amount of abuse on it...yet it still runs clean and reliable day in and day out!!! The RENNTech mods really helped his C32 a whole lot....its a whole different animal!!
