even though it may seem alot of money, but think about it - its just a pulley and such a simple part but has a very good effect. sure an engine swap is nice but its much easier to install a pulley then an engine. imagine doing both.
yep, all things are true. Bottom end was stock, and I will show you all soon, many people have run 9psi on the same boar stroke compression. Its a non issue. Th problem was I couldnt pull time. The trans was not ment for what I was doing, this is very true, So I looked at all my options, the C36 used the 722.3 (or 4) which was the same as the 500sl, and renntech was running 500+ hp through them no issues.
But I chose to swap to the 717.430, which I did about 2 years ago, and its ready for boost now, 500hp driveshafts, and 3.27LSD out back. I wont boost it again till I go full standalone though.
I love the m103/104's I have sucked up water a few times, run them 4 qts low, etc etc. They are bullet proof, the 103 and cis was much nicer imo, but for making power their no beating the m104 if it had a standalone.
Only things failing on the cis cars were ezl's and 1 coil... stock 104 will drive you nuttz chasing electrical problems with their enviromentially friendly wiring from the mid 90's it was a german thing, very bad.
I dont wana take the air outa this, but Ive had my crank pulley off more then once, I do not see 17hp gains in this pulley.
I also say the swap is not done without a standlone. I will be offering standalones and turbo mani's by end of year for all m104's

Hey, I like handing my money out, 650$ I spent double that on my front door speakers (diamond audio hex 3 ways) I would really consider buying one. Not to be a prick to everyone else, Im one of the only cars that can truly dyno test this pulley and should get a break to show you all a full pull in 3rd gear.
I mean, the only reason my swap was so cheap I got the motor right (round 1000$ delivered to a buisness) and got a slave to help swap it (Blind) and sold him my old motor for 400$ for his 190 (my old car, he got it for 500$) You should see what hes doing to it. We will have a m104 standalone turbo setup for under 2K if I can convince him to use the MegaSquirts, otherwise about 3500$ managed.

You can put me in slot 1 when their ready.

Pully sounds great Omey,
Will be very interesting to see the dyno results!...I may have missed somthing but do you plan to do before and after runs?...
Also Unorthodox were going to charge me 600US+ to replicate mine and that was without the rubber insert!!(plus shipping+tax)
So your prices dont seem unreasonable from a manufacturing cost point.

Paul

you could do something that would make me pay you extra....
if you could offer a 36-1 option this would be worth its weight in gold.
Don
x2... This would definantly be a viable option to those that want to go standalone later on and prevent them from having to rig up an additional 36-1 wheel...Originally posted by RacerXofFL

RacerX, you're really confusing me...firstly you say that you've run your motor with no pulley, and don't see how it can produce the power gains claimed by omey. You then basically imply that there are better ways to spend $650. Then in the next breath you want to be the first person to get omey's pulley???Originally posted by RacerXofFL

motor with no pulley
I dont like his pulley. I have better products coming to market.
I want to put his on a dyno to show it will not gain 17000hp .
I have a 5 speed manual 3.2L I will make videos of the pulley change and dyno pulls.
650$ is nuthing compared to what I spend each year on cars, and on the reverse side, if it does work I'll have the first bitches
This is gonna be interesting!!!
Well mabby calling it his pulley and stuff is too negative. I think it has its place.
17000hp might be a little over shot, but im thinking 10 would be impressive enough for 650$

There are 2 amg's talked bout in this thread, the 55, or 36 is getting dyno'ed?
Just reading the earlier threads,There are 2 amg's talked bout in this thread, the 55, or 36 is getting dyno'ed?
-He does not have a C280 or C36 (yet)
-He has an E55 AMG in which he installed the pulley and did a dyno test so....
the after dyno would be for the E55
...
Omey, I didn't see any pulley pics on this thread. Are there some posted somewhere else?
see page one, why keep talking about the e55, i mean this is club 202 RIGHT?Originally posted by omeyhomey
Hello Don,
thanks for the support but I think I am just gonna sell the E55 soon and get a C36 AMG and do the tests myself b/c I have a whole M104 product line up coming out. thanks again though
~Omey~
c36 is a 202... and hes been showing pics and making claims for months:
http://www.club202.com/forums/showth...threadid=11871
I mean that was 2/9/07, that was 2.5 months ago...
VERY NICE! Thanks AirPost.
Maybe he is posting the products with his E55 for the C43 crowd as we share the same M113 and many parts.

RacerXofFL what is your problem? Seriously man don't be a jerk, he is just trying to get some parts made for us, if you can do that better, by all means go for it, and i'll buy everything you make, until then give the guy a break.
