I think Eurocharged will have greater HP/TQ gains because you can get a 180mm pulley and kleemen doesnt offer a pulley that big.

Check out this Kleemann video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mE_VpRKW838

It really demonstrates the great pride they take in building a product made with precision. Nothing against Eurocharged. I imagine ASP has a high level of QA too.

I'd go with Kleeman if you were basing it off quality and if you are not going to upgrade the cooling system with a better heat exchanger. Their smaller pulley will be just fine without upgrading that, also there are members on here running great times without the 180 pulley. I personally recommend doing the 180 pulley from ASP if you want the most power but are you planning on upgrading other areas down the road?

+1... FWIW I did K1 about a month ago and I'm very pleased with the results and the power my car puts down. Here's my review on it. I'll be down to get headers sometime this month and I'll have a follow up on those as well.

Well then the best mod you can do for the most power is the EV12 conversion and put a v12 TT from a 65 in it! How's that sound for power?
