Thanks for all the info about Eurocharged. I wasn't sure what the connection was between both shops and thanks for clarifying all that up for us. Good luck with the new shop and I just wish we had something like you guys down here in the Sunshine state so we can just hop into our cars and visit every now and then!

 

Road Trip! We can make it worth your while!

 

Jake, How's the progress on the new 185 kit?

 

It is going well. We got the new pulley in already, and those are ready to go out now.

We are still playing with a belt wrap kit as well as changed accessory pullies!

 

Jake,
I think I asked before but I will ask again. Will the auxillary pullies work with the 181mm I have? It would be nice to reduce the wear on those parts. I am VERY happy with the 181.

Mike,

We are focused on the 185 at the moment, and will be testing options on the 181 soon. We are still trying to find the actual load and see what effects it does have on the accessory pullies if any. We have been in constant contact with service techs at mercedes on the project and want to make sure all is well. For the record, we have not had a product failure due to accessory pullies, nor have we had an accessory fail that was related to a 181 or 185.

The other issue was already corrected with a new idler pulley bearing that was released by Jerry a couple of months ago.

Jake

 

Thanks Jake. I have the latest WP pulley and Ideler bearing from Jerry. I was just looking for any improvements to reduce the RPMs on the accessories that might be available. I just got a new belt tensioner so I can go to the 115.3" belt. The old tensioner bearing rattles when I use the slightly longer belt(not a bearing problem).

MikeR

 

Good good... you got the tensioner

 

Yes, thanks Bryan.

Np, I will let you know when that time comes. Good idea with the larger belt, it does help!

 

This has been Crossfire week at ECP... (at least 6 of them so far, and more to come) stay tuned for pics and info!

 

So dyno numbers yet?? I only get on here about every 2 weeks or so. Just checkin.

 

ya, actually we did just dyno one of our cars. Approx 340 rwhp on a mustang dyno...

 

To bad the "Shop" SRT-6 put down less then me. lol..... Im just Eurocharged supported

 

Ya, wouldn't exactly put it that way....a discussion to come.

 

340 is pretty darn good for a mustang dyno. What mods were on the car?

 

EuroCharged 185mm pulley,Needswings Intake Manifolds, Needswings CAI, Needswings SuperCooler, 2.5" EuroCharged Stainless Head-back exhaust, Johnson Pump, LET Dyno tune, EuroCharged Plenum Spacers

 

HAHA Import...I knew you would pipe up...

So since you stated it how much more did you make then me?

I know, so how about letting the rest of the world know??

Nuttin like being a consumer and knowing how much HP things REALLY make and how much said HP costs...

 

LOL, it wasnt a bash on you at all Kirk, just friendly competition. According to Jake and Andy I made 40whp more then your car.

 

Hey buddy I didn't take it as a bash..All is good!
.I just think the world should know how much it costs to make how much hp.

Somebody needs to post the graphs and what hp with what products...

At least thats my opinion.
I know I would want to know reality.
