Thanks!
Thanks!

Everyone - per Eric's request I've set up the official RSVP for attending the pulley party. When filling out the form be sure to indicate if you would like other items installed like an intake, GIAC, etc.
Please click HERE to get your name in the party. You can also find the RSVP under the Event Planner in the MOTD area.
Thanks!
Mark

Hi All:
I just read through the thread and see that I need to clear up a couple of things. Our regular shop price for the pulley installed is $385. I told Mark that I wanted $400 for the job--I was considering the extra $15 the lying-on-my-back-using-hand-tools fee. But I had already quoted $385 earlier, so (although I hate to be a man of my word ) I'll stick to that price.
I also noticed that Mark's sign up is full. I will contact him today to ask him to expand the list, or if he can't just contact me: we'll figure out a way to make your car fun at the Dragon. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me at 215 739 8800. I'll keep my eye on this thread as well. Cheers.

I've taken what looks like the last slot for a 17% reduction pulley.. but I have one question- is this easily reversible if I should decide to sell the car (or whatever) -?
I was planning to do the Works conversion, but I just don't see it happening anytime in the next couple of years, and I really do want to get a little more power out of the car. It is an 05 built last July with about 4000miles on it, but its my 3rd MINI... any comments or advice??

1.) Easier to install. You do not need to heat up the pulley to install like OEM
2.) Easier to change. Since the hat controls the size and it is separate from the hub, it can removed and exchanged.
I would assume that the press on would be easier to remove then OEM as well, but I have not heard of anyone doing that. Hope that helps.

does the 19% pulley deliver more power than the 15% -? ie is that 19% smaller than original vs. 15% smaller making the 19 the smallest and therefore the fastest spinning -?

I have found a MINI already with a 15% installed and I purchased it this past Saturday. So I will cancel my reservation for the pulley party. Have fun guys - the 15% rocks! - I can't find a way to unregister for this event so please take my name off the list to allow someone else to get on the event.
