1st Gen R53 Cooper S Most liked posts in thread: Another pulley question

I have dunlop star specs and a V1. When I did Drive to work I drove the same way.

I miss driving everyday sometimes.

 

Yeah the bolts are not worth the extra cash.

 

What is that statement based on? a blower with a 17 or 19% will fail early, but
a blower with a 15% will have the same life span as a blower with a stock pulley? That is BS. The worst that can be claimed is that the blower may fail 2% sooner, if all other things were equal (which they will never be).

Make the pulley decision based on the condition of the motor, intended use of the car, and level of maintenance/care one plans on putting into the car in the future.

 

Yeeeaaaah......i didnt think you had any data to support your comment.

Yes, any over-driven SC will make more heat than the stock setup, INCLUDING one with a 15% pulley.

 

Hey 2 post its looks like you are on the wrong forum you should be on the NAM.

You want data go look it up for yourself I am not going to spoon feed you knowledge I and EVERYONE else already knows.

Also it looks like you have an ax to grind with me Mr. Hide behind a keyboard and post nothing about yourself. All my info is out for all to see so who are you?

Are you not comfortable exposing yourself as a fraud? Send me a PM or an e-mail and I will be more than happy to call and educate you. If you do I fact leave your mothers basement and if you are at the Dragon this year ask around I am easy to find.

 

Dave.....why when someone has a different opinion than you always gets lambasted? There are thousands of 1st gens out there with over 17%....either with just the SC pulley, or both the SC and the crank pulley combined, with no issues? Common sense is a must when running this %, but they still run fine.

 

I would agree with that......but that's more money than some can afford?

 

Why do we have to do this? So I lambasted Dave in my post? Really? Was my post flamitory? I thought Dave's was? But......forget it.....

 

Jimmini, go craw back under your rock because you bring nothing to this conversation at all. You just like to come into threads and stoke the flames and it's getting old.

Go be a good little boy and go see Lynn in Jail.

Fyi you always cry poor and can't afford the good parts. Here is a idea go sell your MINI and ride your pedal bike or get a better job.

Stop crying poor.

 

Alcohol and a keyboard = this ^^^

 

No I am 100% sober and you are well ....still YOU.

Just go away no one cares about anything you have to say.....EVER.

Haven't you learned that over the past few years? Nobody cares what you say.

 

GP is the best unless you happen to come across one of the DOS copper core I/C's... They are extremely rare, but do offer a little more than the GP.

But with meth (bottle not baggie) the OE S I/C is good for a hundred or so HP over stock.
