R53 supercharger pulley install.

I was looking to install the super charger pulley and was looking for a mechanic in Brooklyn New York that was recommended, I had a mechanic do the rear seal on the Mini and i was not happy with the attention they put into the detail to put the car back together.. I have the Alta 17% pulley, belt and tool already.

I have gone to Tyrolsport in Queens a few years back and these guys were awesome.

I would indeed recommend Eric and his crew at Helix if you don't mind driving there. Worth it in my opinion!

Thanks, Helix does sound great but I would have to take a day off from work. Maybe I'll take a sick day and plan a road trip one day.

Don't forget this formula:
The number of days ahead and frequency of your coughs is relative to the amount of time needed to complete your task.....

Another happy NYC customer of Tyrol Sport here. They've done my pulley, crank damper, DT bpv and maintenance items and I couldn't be happier with the service.
