I have a 2008 SL 55 AMG I would like to change the supercharger pulley to a 77. Can I use the same belt with the 77th or do I need a new belt. Thanks

You'll need a new belt.

You'll need a new belt, best to get a belt wrap kit, install that, install the pulley... then get it tuned. Do you have any additional mods to the car? You may want to invest in a secondary heat exchanger.

Or purchase a killer chiller system, much more effective than any secondary HE unit you can buy.
