just fyi the spacer on the small bolt goes behind the bracket, not in front like a washer like you have it in the video, if you look at the supercharger pulley downward at you bwk pulley i guarntee it is probably sitting crooked asf.
Thanks for sharing your install. I"ve got a 80 mm fixed pulley on my S55 and been debating whether or not to add the BWK. What were your impressions with the power delivery with the BWK? Any improvements...low end, mid range. top end?
I definitely felt an improvement with low end power and mainly top end i had alot of belt slip before and this helps alot. Theres a road i can usually test some speed on and i could usually get 130mph on after the BWK got it to 150mph. Definitely worth the money for the gain.
Hi. Sorry to hear that i have not had any issues like that, seems like one of your accessorie pulley bearings might be seizing up I would pop the belt off and check each one and make sure they spin freely and dont have any play and dont sound crunchy check the double idler pulley that plastic pulley could have a crack or somthing causing it to shred the belt to.
Just picked up a BWK from "Vano V-Tech Javarashlili" for $179. Heard great things on the FB groups about there products, and they have great customer support.
Hey Zerolimit, I'm about to pull the trigger on the Creative Steel BWK this weekend - how's the kit been upholding up for you since the time you installed it. Have you encountered any issues? There are few other kits in the market (UPD, VRP...), but this one is nicely priced.
Its great for the most part only little issue i had was that theres a bolt for the bracket thats near the tensioner pulley and the pulley would just kiss it so i had to grind the head of the bolt half off works perfect now.
@@gametrix1297 I ended up purchasing the UPD kit and it's been rock soild. For my 80mm fixed pulley the kit included a 525 belt, however I went with a smaller 495 Green Belt HD with no belt slip. The 525 wasn't tight enough and would move on the grooves.
@@dev894 oh nice yeah u will go through motor mounts more often now with all that TQ off the line. I have a very hard time getting a launch out of my car even with 275 rear pilot super sports if it spins 1st gear it spins 2-3 as well need super sticky tires some r888r should do the trick. How do u like the pulley? I have a 74mm fixed pulley that im trying to sell its a VRP pulley if u know anyone interested.
@@luisetorres5760 it's a upgrade that will benefit the the car alot, stock pump will be plenty if your not dropping pulley sizes, stock cooling system is a horrible design its a great upgrade that will help to keep them IATs down.

Bought a BWK Monday, can't wait to install it
The spacer goes behind the plate onto the thermostat bolt

Nice job, what are the torque settings for the double idler and belt Tensioner pulley please?
Pretty snug not to tight u can strip the torx end out MB puts blue loctite on to so u dont have to go crazy on it.
Thank you
Hi zerolimit 412 i have a problem with my current BWK were it keeps destroying the alernator belt have you had any issues since installing this one ?

@@turbocraz1 Okay, good to know. Just ordered my kit and hopefully have it installed next week. Thanks again!

How much was it
I see you have a clutchless pulley, how many miles have you put on the car since installing it?
Around 6k miles
@@turbocraz1 don't drive it much huh? any issues with the pulley?
@@dev894 i used to drive it alot it was my daily but got a different car for that now. Its been great no issues with the set up.
@@turbocraz1 thanks, got ny 75mm pulley on and on the first hard launch toasted a motor mount haha

What is that reservoir for? Looks like for power steering but mine doesn’t have it
It was for the split cooling system but it sucks don't ever do it better to use a ice tank
@@turbocraz1 thanks 🙏🏻
@@turbocraz1 is this a necessary upgrade or I can leave it stock? I’ve read the pump is not the best but haven’t found much information about it
