Arrow New VRP & Evosport Mods For Sale

Originally purchased these items for my 2006 E55 but have elected to hold off at this point.

New VRP red pulley – never installed. My original price was $1,299 before shipping. Picture of a black pulley from VRP website is attached below.

New Evosport Cooling Upgrade Package – never installed. Per Evosport website the price is $3,095 but I purchased during a sales promotion for approximately $2,400. Take this opportunity and benefit from the prior sales event. Picture of the system from Evosport website is attached below.

Please PM me if you are interested. I will be glad to accept PayPal and ship via FedEx.

Although I am still a Newbie - don't worry - many folks on this board have seen the whites of my eyes (and my car), most recently at the Midwest Drag Event.

Why do they charge that much for a pulley?

I can vouch for Dwayne - he's a good guy and would NEVER rip anyone off.

No worries with this transaction at all, folks.

when a pulley is just a pulley.. unless it's for a Mercedes or other luxury car.. then all of the sudden a 200-400 dollar unit becomes and over thousand dollar piece.

Disclaimer: i'm not complaining. prices are what they are because of what we drive. i'm sure, however, this pulley is well worth it.

Bought the VRP Pulley.

I wanted to post a good word about Dwayne.

I inquired about the pulley a week back. He sent me his old invoice and pictures asap. I paid by paypal and he shipped and forwarded a tracking number within 24hours. You gotta love it when a deal goes smooth...thanks again Dwayne.
