05 E55
New to me 05 E55 tune question
Just picked up a low mileage 05 E55. It has a fixed S/C pulley. It runs strong and has almost all its records.
Is there a way to identify the pulley (black in color) and the tune on the car?

Thanks.

Unless it's in the records you can't tell the tune. The pulley is upd and you need to measure what mm it is across. 80 mm was the first really popular size Eurocharged sold in the masses

You would have to call the owner and see where he bought the mods from then you can contact the company with your vin and they can tell you

It could be any size. Just seems like when the 80mm came out and the dyno showed 70hp there were a lot of people interested

Any options on a fixed pulley? It's not a everyday car just fun and stuff. It does have an upgraded ic pump

OE sounds solid. Their customers seem happy
BIP was good with fixed pulley
Anthony Lawshee (Tony formally BIP) also very good

Thinking out loud, check to see if their is a resister in the supercharger clutch pulley that might help you narrow down the tuner. BIP does not use them Eurocharged does FYI.
