303 stainless steel was used in the fabrication of these.
Thank you for your inquiry, yes, it will fit any R53 MINI Cooper S made 2002-2006 I appreciate it!
It is true, but you can only reduce the diameter of the crank pulley to a point where it increases by 2 to 4%. Switching pulleys reduces parasitic weight as the main reason for doing so. If you combine both of them, you will gain more weight and benefit from them. Here is an example, for example With the 15% reduction in supercharger pulley and 2% in crank pulley, the overall size reduction is 17% plus parasitic weight savings. In comparison, the combination of that and the 17% pulley results in more power with less response loss.
An engine pulley similar to this one would be of no use to a MINI Cooper S Countryman All4 (R60). However, by installing a lightweight crank pulley, you will remove some extra weight An added sprung weight will allow for some power to be freed up. When you're looking for more power from the N18 in your R60, you'll want to consider something like the NM Engineering power module along with modifications such as an intake, intercooler, and exhaust. As far as tuning goes, there are costs and risks to take into consideration.
Selected User Reviews For Cravenspeed Supercharger Pulley 15% Reduction
This is an extremely well-made product. The supercharger reduction pulley in this photo is one of the best pulleys I have ever felt. In case you don't know what you're looking at, this is a reduction pulley for the Mini Cooper S. The company claims it will add 15 pounds to your frame After the installation, the power consumption may have been 20 watts. It is incredibly easy to put on (if you've ever tried to take the old one off it's a little tricky). I believe this is an excellent pulley at a very good price. One thing I want to mention, if you are doing this mod, it is highly recommended to have a colder spark plug installed In my opinion, the designated puller should be used even if it is expensive This is *br/*.
The instruction video for Mod MINI can be found on YouTube. There is also a pulley puller that they sell that you will need! The installation looks intimidating but if you watch the video and follow step by step you will be fine. I almost returned it because the install looked beyond my skill set, however I need to replace the belt tensioner so I thought I might as well do this since it is only a few That was really the best decision I could have made! It really wakes up your ride! I was able to trip the traction control, and the sound of the supercharger is amazing! Combining it with their lightweight crank pulley, this is a mod that is well worth installing.
There is something beautiful about this pulley. With no sharp edges and the Cravenspeed logo etched in, this is very high end craftsmanship. Packaging is very nice with padding to protect the item from scratches. I have a Mini R53 and it performs well. There is only one problem the pulley has 4 hex bolts and the instructions in the online guide refer to 3 hex bolts that need to be tightened to 85lbs. It seemed a bit high to me, so I only used about 40lbs of Nothing is slipping. It is working as it should. It is essential that you get the proper belt size for your upgraded pulley otherwise your stock belt may slip.
The installation process and technical tools required for installing this pulley made me wonder if I should buy it or not. In the end, though, I had to use a few YouTube videos in order to put that beast in there, and the car definitely woke up as a result. Before installing the SC, you were not able to hear the whine. It sounded natural to me at first, but after getting on the road it has revealed itself and I truly can't get enough of that mini whine. I definitely recommend this pulley as well as the serpentine belt remover tool and the craven speed pulley tool. I have one negative comment about this pulley, and that is that it did trip an EML light. Anyway, I guess we'll see what that's all about, but regardless, it's still a 5-star score for me.
If you want to remove it yourself, make sure you have the appropriate removal tool. It is possible to do it on a.
This is my favorite application by far. It has transformed my Mini into a totally different machine. It just makes driving my Mini more fun. I even use it as a daily driver now that I have this pulley. In addition, I installed a Detroit Tuned bypass valve and it has improved my car's performance significantly. Regardless if this mod is the only upgrade you install, I strongly recommend it. You're getting a lot of bang for your.
For my 06 R53, I love this. It is probably my favorite modification I have made Also, Crevenspeed has great products, their stuff always arrives well packaged and is of great quality at a reasonable.
Pulley with a smooth surface. You can save yourself a lot of headaches and get the removal tool as well. The belt on the new, shorter supercharger is not too long, so it does not cause a problem.
