Turner Pulley Kit

Matei · 04-12-2011, 12:12 PM

Hello guys.

I have just ordered the Turner Pulley Kit for a 05.2008 M3.
I went with them since I trust this company from their racing experience. I also took some of their other products.
Could anyone tell me if you have some experience with their pulley kit?
I could not find any info on how aggressive this pulley is. I mean in comparasion with the other brands.
I will also have a catless exhaust and an ESS tune going in conjunction with this pulley.

Thank you

Honestly, I don't feel any different from my Dinan Pulley for 05.2008.
But I do feel different battery not charging well (M3 wasn't my daily drive as well).
So I had to go to dealer to battery test and recharge full again.
Mine was running about 30% of charge.

Thank you for your reply, this is very useful, as my M3 is not my daily driver either. Sometimes it sits in the garage for up to 3-4 weeks.

You'll have issue with battery staying charged then.

For some of power gain (I'm sure there is but it's just not noticeable), you'll be annoyed with some battery charging issue (clocking losing, memory setting wipeout etc and "increased battery discharge warning" on your iDrive screen).

To me it wasn't worth for pulley $$ + installation $$.
I think it's different story if it's daily drive.

i like mine, i installed myself and got it for cost(i own a shop) if I didnt have the hook up, I would rather spend the $$ towards a tune and exhaust...I can notice a minimal effect way up top

I have the Turner pulley ans like it a lot. I installed the AFE stage 2 intake at the same time and feel a noticeable gain. Some of that might be due to the louder engine due to the intake. It was expensive to install...
