Thanks for the review! I just wondering if there are any other modifications I would need to do to get the utmost reliability form the pulley? Is there anything that needs to be done to the fueling to go with the pulley?

IS IT VERY HARD TO CHANGE THE PULLEY? CAN I DO IT MY SELF? DO I HAVE TO LOWER THE ENGINE TO REMOVE IT.

[...] Following the advice of those who have gone before, I’ve ordered a Webb 15% Reduction Supercharger pulley. This particular pulley has a 2 year/24,000 mile warranty – a big part of why I chose it. How does it affect horsepower? It’s said to add 16 horsepower to a stock MCS. I’ll let you know how it does with my Dinan Stage I software upgrade. [...]

If istalling a 15% pulley (considering MiniMania or Webb) do you need to change to cooler spark plugs and 8 mm wires?

Nice review. I'll be fitting a 15% ALTA pulley within the month and am really looking forward to it.

I was interested to note there was no mention of an ECU upgrade to deal with the new pulley, and other mods the car has. Are you planning an ECU upgrade at all? If so I can't wait for your review. :)

I have made RANDY 10 removal tools and it is my understanding that he loans them out if you buy the pulley from him. For all who are interested, I rent and sell these tools ($30/$60) drop me a PM on NAM or MINI2 if interested . Jock

Mark – yes it will work on an ’06 as well.

I just ordered the 15% pulley from the WebbMS site but now realize that the pulley is for 02 - 05 Cooper S. I have a 06 Cooper S. Will this Pulley work with my 06? (I didnt see any pulleys listed on the WMS for an 06 Cooper S)

Thanks in advance.

Gabe did you install it yourself? If so how difficult was it really. Me and a couple of buddies were going to do it within the next couple weeks to my car, and IÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢m kind of scared that I might mess it up. Should I be? I think IÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢m better off with going with the Webb Pulley because it seems like it would be a no brainer to seat it right.

Your write about the no brainier part for seating the Web Pulley, I did the install with Randy looking over my shoulder or well sometimes I was looking over his. I have some mechanical experience so it helps to know what is too far when working on things. You'll need a few special sockets to fit in tight places but it was worth the effort and satisfaction of a clean self install. It pays to use a puller that will gently remove the original pulley and it has to be dead center so that youÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢re not bending the shaft. And no pry bar should be needed; you'll mess with the SC bearings.

I am thinking of installing a 15% pulley on my MCS, but still don’t whether I can do that without installing a new ECU (or a remapped one). Is it necessary to have both? because if it is you need a considerably larger amount of money spent.

With the 15% Webb pulley do you need to do a software download?

Hey guys!

I just purchased the M7 pulley after way too much research. I too was taken with the design (and that cool 16% engraved on the side) The M7 guys recommend using the JCW belt with the pulley which makes sense. My dealer is going to do the install for a reasonable amount of $$$$, and I'm looking forward to experienceing the flip of the "secret switch"!!

Iaorana guys !

What about a 19% on a jcw210? a real piece of art ! anyone tried that ? is the jcw pulley easy to remove ? is it worth it ? i guess the engine could stand it better than the standard mcs ? what should be also upgraded ? And the jcw upgrade to 225? any experience ? Two friends of mine are mcs with 15% and it 's really great . still behind , but much closer ... Great sound (with bmc intake) a real motorcycle this car !! I have to improve my english to write it up ! Well thanks again gabe . your black mini is "magnifique" . See u.

Err, 29% or 19% reduction? Or are you just running the belt on the supercharger shaft? ;-)

I live in Mexico and I got a 29% smaller pulley and ecu tunnig, the car runs brutally.

I used to have a 2004 manual transmission Mini and it was able to spin (a bit) the tires from 2 to 3rd gear. I smashed that car and now I got an automatic one, cause the ultra hyper intense traffic in the City, and the car (also with the pulley and ecu mods) runs amazingly. At this altitude 2250 meters over sea level, a Golf R32 canÃƒâ€šÃ‚Â´t beat me 1st 2nd 3rd gear, even though the auto transmission

The dealer is del Rio Power, he rocks!!!
