I wonder why the stab at me? I am interested in the C63 so want to be updated on certain developements thus I post should I just write "subscribed" to please you?

The meaning of is various which mine with nothing added means I'm have interest in knowing thus I subscribe in that way. I don't contribute here but if I get a C63 I would...next time don't be such a child and presume. I always read how this section has alot of young ignorant owners or wannabees are you one of them?

I find this amusing actually. And reason being is when I first saw your popcorn post, I wasn't sure what you were insinuating. You're right it's all about how it's perceived. For me, it almost came across as if you were waiting for some instigating to occur. After a quick search I realized your last several posts have been merely popcorn as well. So while I think perhaps the way gravedgr presented himself was a bit too the point, I can honestly see his point as I came to the same, yet nicer conclusion So I don't think he was singling you out but rather frustrated that your post was nothing more than popcorn, which to his point really doesn't contribute anything (IMO) to the thread.

To your point (lots of points here!), you know you don't need to post to subscribe right? You can easily select the "Subscribe to this Thread" option from the 'Thread Tools' drop menu without having to post anything. This eliminates unnecessary waste of bandwith and posts.

Thanks I'll use that instead so others aren't confused by me.

Will keep you posted.

Is this thing a bolt on mod where I will get the HP gain instantly or do you have to tune for it. I have a RENNTECH programmed ECU and am wondering if I will have to redo my ECU for this mod to be utilized.

Bolt-on. No tuning required.

Last we were told (months ago), a new alternator was supposed to have been installed on the customer's car and we would be notified if there was still an issue. We have not heard anything back. Again, to date this is the ONLY car that's claimed to have had any issue of the now hundreds of these pulleys we've sold.

In addition to looking pretty, the Evosport pulley enhancement is the perfect addition to an ECU tune and filters. Course, if you don't like a torquey engine/tranny combination and right now immediate throttle response, then this mod isn't for you.

Got mine installed yesterday at Evosport. What can I say? WOW, fudge, glad I did it.

My 17 year old son exclaimed, "I only gave it a quarter throttle and car stood up and flew."

I like driving in traffic again!
