Power Pulleys Safe?

Tianzo · 12-05-2011, 08:16 PM

Hi All, anyone having any issues short or long term with their Power Pulleys? Planning on installing Pulleys, but trying to stay away from anything that may give a headache.

Looking at either Dinan or MS for the Pulley Upgrade.

should be safe unless you start getting into the race pulleys and then you might have an issue with charge and a/c

OP: I believe there has been a fair amount posted on this topic but to give you my experience: I previously had a 2008 E90 M3 w/DCT and a MS Power Pulley. No issues up to 19,800 miles when I sold the vehicle. Since the power is made higher up on the RPM's, I honestly couldn't feel the difference of the pulley alone but when combined with a filter and exhaust there was a small noticable difference. Hope this helped.

Hey CBS, thanks bro. That answered my second question, but about what RPM does the Power Pulley really make a difference? and does it affect your torque in anyway on the lower gears?
