AA Pulleys Installed
Hello,
I just had an Active Autowerk pulleys installed in my car and I'd have to say that I felt a better throttle response across the powerband. -radz

lol. The throttle response is increased because I think of the added HP across the board. What I really like is the increased torque. 10WTQ in the low range is much needed!

I plan on getting the pulleys installed soon and hopefully the ecu mod as well.
Any more details you could provide on the ride after the install would be welcomed. |

There can be negative effects but it seems that nobody has pushed the electrical system hard enough to experience them yet. The way the pulley upgrade works is to spin slower to reduce parasitic drag however it also results in slowing down the rotation at the alternator. Slowing down the alternator means you reduce its power output capability at any given engine RPM. If you load up on electrical accessories, you may run into a problem where the electrical charging system cannot keep up with your load.

I got the pulley and tune installed at the same time. The power is very noticeable, now the car drives like it is always on M mode. The changing in gears is very aggressive and also when it is down shifting. The wheel sometimes spins in 1st gear and everytime I floor it the wheel always spin in 2nd.

I don't think I'll have to worry too much since I got a 'stripped' M3 with barely any electrical options on it. I only have a simple rada dector on top of that. Quote:
