There are soo many pullies out there, different styles, shapes, sizes brands, colours etc. etc.

So what do you guys have?

DaFlake · Jun 12th, 2007, 06:30 AM

15% Mini-Madness

The Alta V2 wasn't available at the time. It is a smart new design and I have installed a few of them and find them much better.

Richard Crofts · Jun 12th, 2007, 09:43 AM

Alta v1 15% with reduced belt and colder NGK irridium plugs ... Mine is therefore silver but the yummy black and red V2 would look sooooo good under my bonnet with all the other black and red of intakes etc.

Paul_T · Jun 13th, 2007, 01:22 AM

I installed one a few weeks ago. It is not a bad pulley at all. The belt that comes with it is a smaller belt and will require that you really release all the tension off of it, but it is a nice pulley.

MiniPetrolHead · Jun 13th, 2007, 03:03 PM

What colour is the standard pulley?

Alex

Black i think...

I have an Alta V2 15% Pulley.

MiniPetrolHead · Jun 13th, 2007, 03:31 PM

Cheers mate was just wondering, because i want to make my cooperS look as standard as posible when i get it!

Alex

Richard Crofts · Jun 13th, 2007, 04:03 PM

Its defo black...well + some sort of corrody rusty colour when mine came off

Most replacements appear to be silver. The alta v2 is black but has red lettering/logo on the end

just out of interest why do you want yours looking standard Alex?

ignote · Jun 13th, 2007, 04:51 PM

I have the Maddness pulley and it's black.

Paul_T · Jun 13th, 2007, 09:34 PM

Yeah, the stock one is black... I'd say Minipetrolhead is going for the stealth look.

The red lettering is a sticker and when i got mine fitted the mechanic diddnt put it on so it just looks plain black At the moment.

aid · Jun 18th, 2007, 01:02 PM

ok call me thick if you want but at what stage do mini change the supercharger belt on the mini if at all

i.e which service because i was wanting the alta v2 as if you dont put the wee end cap on it looks stock so i could still have my mini serviced under TLC without any problems?????

p.s dont want to go too overboard so was thinking the 17% one

ScottyBoy · Jun 18th, 2007, 01:49 PM

A note on the TLC,

As far as im aware the TLC is paid for by the first owner of the car when they buy it, so to that end the dealer should service the car no matter what modifications are done to it.

Its when you take the car in with warrenty problems that they may not fix them.
