while not technically in NJ, try Helix in Philly. They are THE Pulley experts on the East Coast.

You best bet is to head on over to helix in philly. http://www.helix13.com I do buisness with them, and they are great people. He has done tons of them, so you know he knows what he is doing. Tell him that Dan from Pilo Racing sent you. I am a tuner up in Norther NJ. I design, and test parts, but do not do customer installs, I tend to send people to Eric.

Thanks
Dan

Yeah definitely Helix. Did you just find this site? I can't believe you haven't heard to Helix. Forget Dan, tell Eric that Darren from Jersey sent you. I must have called him 100 times this year - mostly about the progress on the GIAC chip.

I heard of it, but could not find the correct web-site address. Have you used their upper strut brace? Does this help with cornering as far as understeer? I definately want to go for the pulley mod, but that damn BMW voiding of the warrenty has me somewhat hesitant.

If you want to get rid of understeer, get a rear sway bar. I will not effect warrenty, and make the car a whole new monster.
