Underdrive Power Pulleys work to 'free up' horsepower. Any accessory that spins from the main drive belt is using up power. That's power that could otherwise be used to move the car. By giving some of that power back to the engine, you can make the car faster! It's like FREE HORSEPOWER! We measured 10.7 whp at 6960 rpm and 8.1 lb-ft of torque at 5550 on a 1995 M3.

Underdrive pulleys for your BMW will slow down engine-mounted accessories - the water pump, power steering pump, and alternator*. These systems contribute to 'parasitic losses' - power lost from what the engine could produce if it did not have these systems. Since less energy is used to move them, that power is transferred back to the engine and used to propel the car. Our pulleys give a 10-20% reduction in rotation, releasing up to 11hp on most BMW six-cylinder engines. There's also a small but noticeable improvement in throttle response too! We have done extensive testing and development work, both on and off the track, to ensure that the accessory systems function as they should. On our Racing pulley kits we actually underdrive certain components more so we feel our Street pulleys are an ideal compromise between power/torque gains, reliability, and system performance. Our pulley kits have been on the market for over fifteen years, and used in all of our own cars, with zero component failures related to their use.

Features:

• Made from T-6061 aluminum
• Durable black hard anodize that is very resistant to wear
• 10-20% reduction in rotation
• Up to 11hp

Includes:

• Turner Motorsport Power Steering Power Pulley
• Turner Motorsport Water Pump Power Pulley
• Turner Motorsport Alternator Power Pulley* (for Valeo alternator - see ES3147650 for vehicles with Bosch alternator)
• New Accessory Belt

*You will need to inspect your alternator - BMW utilized both Valeo and Bosch-manufactured alternators, and they unfortunately use different pulleys. Your alternator will be stamped or printed with either Bosch or Valeo.
