Supercharger Reduction Pulley Anyone?

I'm interested in hearing from any Mini S owners who've had one installed here in Santa Fe (and/or surrounding area). I'd like to know:
If you're happy with the mod, and
Who installed it for you...

I'd like to put a 17% in my 2006 S... Haven't yet found anyone in SF/ABQ who's had the pulley changed.

Much obliged,
Murali/MyFunkyMINI

You'd have better luck posting in one of the R53 modding sections vs your local area.

R53 in Abq. Had mine installed for a few years now. One of the "you will feel it" mods.

I just found this post.... Just curious if you put your pulley on? I installed a 15% pulley and have input if you still need it

Hi MikeG!
yes, I had the 15% surgery performed last November. Of course, at my altitude I shoulda had a 25% installed. There's just no O2 up here!

I did get more performance and the Stratmosphere Cat-back helps a lot.

I'd still be interested to hear about your experience w/the pulley upgrade.
Best,
Murali
