M104 Performance Crankshaft Pulley (poll)

[omeyhomey]

Hey guys,


Great news, I found out that I will be able to make a M104 crankshaft pulley after all :) . Now the only thing is to make sure there is enough demand. For those of you interested (please serious people only), simple vote yes, for the others that state no, state why. Thanks guys Hopefully I can make this dream become a reality for all of us.

The pulley won't be on the market till after X-mas, right now i'm working on the V6 & V8 models.

Price shoudl be around the $349 range for about 15HP (crank or wheels depending on how much i can reduce the weight by. gains could be as high as 18-21 crank HP b/c of how heavy the stock M104 pulley is). This is for STOCK DIAMETER so no underdriven accessories (which I HATED on my BMW). This is literally a simple bolt on (all it takes is undo one bolt, the crankshaft bolt. However, this take a long 4-6 foot breaker bar so it is recommended to take this to a shop most probably to install. Im not sure on the labor but it shouldn't be more than 1-2 hour job.

I'm trying to finally get some M104 parts out on the market. I am also in the works on a M104 header but I would need an aftermarket set to work with and the chances of finding one are very slim to none.

Anyways I want to see if the demand is there just so its worth while. thanks guys

how about for the m113?

I assume you are talking about your C43, yes I am coming out with C43 pulley, stock diameter of course. gains for the V8's I am hoping for about 12-15HP. for the 6-cyl V's im aiming for 10-12HP. For M104 and 230K engines the gains may actually be higher than both anywhere from 15-21HP depending. anyways should be interesting to see what happens, im very excited, I should have a new website up soon hopefully. thx

[benzboy]

Yes please for M104

[omeyhomey]

Ok guys, just got the go ahead. I will be sending M104 pulley off to be prototyped!! :D Hopefully this dream will come true. i will keep yall updated. thanks

[jnolte]

what about the m113 :(

cant wait!

[trymonlam]

ahhh. let us know when the v6 is out. i am def. interested.

[omeyhomey]

V6 and M113 already in prototype, M104 was not net but it should be in about a weeks time (shipping will take about a week).

[c280nz]

how heavy is the standard pulley? and how heavy is the is the goal for the one you are making? out of what material.
M104 i am refering to.
Thank you for any insight

I will let u know once its officially released onto the market

[c280nz]

how heavy is the standard pulley then?

I cannot give exact numbers yet but I will let u know once it comes closer to that time. thanks

[mike mac]

i want one... how long do i have to wait?

[omeyhomey]

the prototype should be back in a few weeks, im hoping for production to start by X-mas time. I will let you know.

[omeyhomey]

hey guys,


i guess half this thread got wiped out b/c of server crash. Oh well basically keep watching in the next few days and you will see updates. thanks

Sure thing. more pics of stuff are coming soon. M104 stuff still in the pipeline but M111 stuff is already done. I will have pics soon. thx

[300EVO]

BUMP.....anything new on the M104 crank pulley availability?

[omeyhomey]

Yes, it is currently in the prototype phase and i should have the prototype done by spring break. The pulley should be ready for production by april/may at the latest. Thanks guys for your patience, I won't let you guys down :D .

Good to see that there is real progress with these cp's...

If you get any dyno numbers backing up your hp claims, we may purchase two.

I will of course have dyno's to back up the CPs. only reason i can't dyno the 230k headers is I do not have a 230k.

Pulleys should generate healthy gains and they are typically the best "torque mod" you can do. M104 should generate the highest % power of all the headers believe it or not so im really exicted to see what those headers can do. anyways ttyl

[benzboy]

Well I will be very very keen for both the pully and headers for my C36, can't wait :)

I will absolutely buy one. i have a couple of questions tho... surely the factory makes the pulley a certain weight for a reason? will it compromise reliability at all (as i drive my car very hard)? thirdly, how do i get one? i.e. where are you based?

Yes the factory does make it a certain weight for a reason, cast steel is dirt cheap, machined aluminum is $$$$. No this pulley will NOT compromised reliability or driveability, infact you won't even noticed a difference except the big increase in power. I designed the pulley specifically for Mercedes drivers b/c i know they would not like to make sacrifices in reliability and creature comforts (such as A/C, engine temp, cooling, power steering, and alternator power). most aftermarket crank pulleys are underdriven and non-harmonic balanced (NOT GOOD!). The pulleys will be availible soon, when they are I will make a public announcement. Thanks for your interest :)

[mike mac]

so umm...whens this thing coming out now... patience isnt even in my vocabulary lol

[omeyhomey]

prototype should be done by end of may hopefully so beginning of summre is projected date of production but no garentees on timing. I am trying my best. thx

[Sev]

any updates on this project? i'm excited since this is the first i'm reading about it (hopefully there's already another thread in which the group buy is being put together somewhere else on the site).

[omeyhomey]

yes there will be, few modifications had to be done to prototype I should be getting it VERY soon. Should hopefully be on sale before the holiday season. It will definitely be the best of all the pulleys as far as % performance gains so I am really excited to get it out there. Thanks and have a nice day

[predrag1]

m104 is the straight 6 right?

ill buy one for sure

yup, straight, not V6

dfudes i'm all pumped up about this. my m104 is just sitting outside waiting to go into my car, and I can't think of a better upgrade to it while it's still out of the engine (oh and let's not forget omeyhomey's headers he promised us)
