Funny how you come in to promote your product and not answer the real questions. Why do you start a new company for each product? Is it because none are tested and if they fail you don't want them linked? That's probably why none of your companies have an address or a phone number. Making your own forum to promote your products and control what is said. Cats out the bag.
Your new sig is hilarious. You're the fastest at what nobody does loll. Wait until we come to Texas and take that title. Speed driven holds the Benz mile record by nearly 20mph over you haha

Lol this is funny to me! My 55 is my daily.. I drive it to work every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I work 18.3 miles away, so on those days I drive 36.6 miles a day, I go to school every Tuesday and Thursday, which is 28.9 miles away, which is 57.8 miles going and coming on those days add it all up that is 225.4, 5 days out of the week. Plus maybe 80-120 miles on the weekend unless I go to ATX or San Antonio that weekend. Since January my car has been driven to Los Angeles, California twice which is a little over 1,500 miles so there is 6,000miles.
I installed this pulley at 88,088 miles and I took a picture of the mileage when it was installed, I wish iPhones could date stamp. I am not sure of the exact milage on my car now (In Body Shop) but it is around 102,000 miles. Sorry I just calculated that and it was 14k miles lol sorry I was off by 1,000 miles! Once I get my car back I will take a photo of the current mileage.
Here is the pic..

Your such a tool. You mean the quarter mile times he made a thread on ready? I like you you don't answer question but sure can keep pushing your product. Spend my donation on PSC wisely ok. I know you need it for your next rebuild.

I'm thinking it would overspin the S/C - correct? maybe backstep to a 190 with the pulley to hit the efficiency of the stock S/C?

I read a while back, that anything over a 180mm (maybe 185) is out of the efficiency of the sc.. So hes way over.

I think its all depend how you love your car. If you paid it brand new at $80k to $90K you won't mind spend $10K to mod because your pocket should be deep enough. For people like me who paid my car around $32K 3 years ago i wont go extreme maybe $5K top to spend in mod but with reputable product because i still value my car as $90K car. That's why i stay with Kleemann. And one day if i decide to sell my car, my mods are Kleemann at least still have its reputation since they are developping new products for W212 63TT. Not many tuners capable to do 63TT as far as i know, Kleemann and Renntech. The rest of tuners just wait from other then study their file and sell for much cheaper which i don't think its innovation.

I was referring to his comment about laughing to the bank... I'm sure Airscape is laughing too since I bought a whole house fan from them last week
and nevermind the gas companies - what kind of warranty do we get from them?

Reading this whole thread and the others like this at the Planet Superhero forum, all these guys that are associated with these RTR pulleys come off as cowards with no genitals. They keep ignoring questions asked by people that purchased their products. Disguisting way to do business. I will never think about ever getting anything from that company as the customer support is, well, non-existent. They got the money and basically turned their back on their customers. I don't even care if e55amgrocket or Chawkins2001 or whoever installed the pulley with a spork, seeing how the RTR people handle their reputation of the products is a joke. No integrity. I don't see this company ever get a good following with MB AMG enthusiasts, and they don't deserve to.

I'll be the first to say it, We've laid an egg from time to time. With a fitment problem, but who hasn't in the header biz. Rule number 1 with me is "always take care of the customer, Give them a great product that's worth the money they spend." Then back it up with a protection plan that shows the customer we will always be there for them if something comes up. That just the person I am.

Maybe he sees that running two warrantyless products is too much for the new motor, and only wants to run one warrantyless product

Why do you keep asking if ive done business with them or not? I already told you no.. What makes you think my experience with this "company" would be any better if their product blew up my car?

I ran 200mm RTR and stock SC pulley for about 2000 hard miles, then motor went (oil blow by) a few days before the big Texas mile. My motor that I got from Hadi-Law will be going in a few weeks and I will use the new SC pulley and 185mm combo to start with, as that will net me about 198mm at the crank, just for comparison. I am then making plans to add turbos and will have to change my pulley ring out again, as I will need a lot lower boost from my supercharger and may even need a ring smaller than stock at the crank.

and I'm in full support of running a quality product with solid supportTheoretically - if someone bought headers off you, and their motor failed - let's say some of the exhaust valves cracked or bent - and they said it was due to the headers making their car run lean - would you replace their motor?
note - i'm not saying a bad thing about MBH, but wondering how other companies would deal with this situation; if a customer has X number of mods - what is really at fault? Sure it's easy to go with the single part that broke, i.e. pulley, or cracked headers, etc... but when an auxiliary part breaks - what's when the ****storm happens...
This whole thread turned into a hornets nest... should have titled it

and yes, I got a 3 year limited warranty from them - but if my air-conditioner fails, I won't blame the whole house fan for it; or maybe i could - depending on how much negative pressure is placed on the A/C fan it could cause premature wear. or maybe my blinds will get dirty from sucking in cooler air so I could bill my cleaning to them
