Upgrades for Supercharged AMG V8 Motors

If anyone is interested I have sourced upgrade kits for the supercharged motor that consist of;

Heat shielding for intake and airbox
Larger crank pulley
Replacement water pump pulley and replacement belt.
Longer supercharger drive belt.

All at realistic prices available Internationally.

You need the ECU to match the pulley kit, also you will need a custom water pump pulley and new belts as well. The point of putting a kit together is to stop others from going through the headache of buying a pulley from someone like ASP and making it work, but if you're keen, go for it!
