Still available? I'm in Toronto, Ontario and I'd like to pick it up.

thanks.

 

taking it off the car on thursday, dibs goes to Jon , if the deal doesnt go thru i will let you know. pm me your email.

 

u still have the pulley, im in Cali.

 

sorry guys i decided its not worth removing the pulley (2 hours of labour~200$). so i am no longer selling! sorry for the wait and the confusion

 

just so you know the pulley comes off and oem goes on in about 30 minutes. that includes belt and fan removal just to make things easier. whoever you have doing it is ripping you off!

 

My shop (Oakridge auto:kleeman authorized) in toronto, Canada wants 2 hours of labour @85$/hour. So I don't know of any other shops to trust or should I go to a general shop? Are there any instructions to removing it?

 

Traded my 2002 c32. I took off my code three performance supercharger pulley before trading. I bought the pulley from HP Autowerks out of Santa Barbara, CA. The pulley was installed early 2010 and had no problems. $450. I'm located in NC.

 

 

remove serpentine belt. install strap filter wrench over pulley and remove center bolt and washer. remove pulley and spacers. thats it

 

lol how exactly do you remove the serpentine belt? and whhats the torque on the center bolt and do i remove all the current shims and just but none on? no measurements ? (feeler guage)?

 

the tensioner pulley has a torx shaft on the end of the mount bolt. pull to the left allows the belt to slip off.
torque of the center bolt is 20 nm or 14 ft/lbs.
shims will need to installed with oem pulley to ensure proper engagement. the easiest way to adjust is install shims to get the pulley as close as possible to the clutch without touching anywere. usually 1 thick shim 1 thin shim. you may have to do it a couple times to get it right.

 

Takes my mechanic 30 minutes to swap them too...

 

wow..

 

The actual installation time on the pulley and removal of the pulley is .5h. The Reason the reason behind the 2h labour charge is the vehicle came in with an over boost condition. We had to first diagnose why the car was creating an over boost condition, then remove the Code 3 pulley that was previously installed and was not correctly shimmed (actually jammed against the clutch plate) We then had to correctly shim and gap the supercharger pulley to the clutch plate for correct function.

This has since solved the over boost condition.

Yup mikes right; I did have a misfire when I floored car and he fixed it! No one else knew what was wrong and i give him props for that! If Anyones in Toronto go to this guy cuz he knows what hes doing! However If you go to my other post in the c32,c55 section there is a video with my c32 bearings sound, don't know what it is but I will update the theard once I get it fixed!

 

how does a c3 overboost a 3.2 s/c engine when the most boost you will ever get from a c3 is 19 psi?
i torqued and reshimmed mine 3 times to get it perfect. still took less than an hour

 

Mike knows his stuff and does excellent work. He did the Quafe install for me. I highly recommend him too.

 

no idea man, the weather here is appx -18c ...it was shooting a misfire when i floored it and it said too much air in the secondary air injector and Mike was saying how the supercharger was always active since the spacing was incorrect and the electromagnetic clutch constantly kept it on...anyways idont wanna speak on behalf of mike so i will let him answer this

 

I got overboost code P0238 with a 181mm pulley with no more that 19.5 PSI (I monitor) at the track in November. Only once out of 30 runs. It happens.

 

i have seen a 181 ovewrboost but never a c3.. anyway i guess the bottom line is...

have you decided to keep the pulley or sell it? theres a bunch of xfire guys looking for a c3

 

im having a problem with one of the bearings or something thats making a sound..take a look at the thread if you want...if its not a cheap fix im just going to swap back to the oem and sell the code 3...liek i said before i will keep the thread updated...waiting on monday to come around so i can take my car to mike
