You don't need a new supercharger bracket, unless you're planning to go to a smaller than spec 525 pulley.

well i suppose 550 spec really as the m3 used our same bracket until recently., still i get no dusting and never have done and more power isn't something i want, i managed to actually compete with the car in 2014 within my sprint scene and the car was punching well into the big boy times with nankang semi slicks holding it back, but even with those, we took 1st pretty much all season and was removed by a tuned Subaru.

Next year i plan to be back but with a much better tire... but the nankang semi slicks have been eye openingly good, but ultimately they struggle to cope, for me, the goal is to lighten as much as possible and get my suspension setup to the best it can be.

I'm enjoying using the car with all the mods and finding the limitations of the mods I've done..

ESS have released a new single piece pipe from the s/c to the intercooler, mine is a 2 pipe piece and could be better imo, this new setup is much much cleaner SADLY....ESS want 230 bucks for a pipe the length of your forearm, by the time shipping was added were talking 300 bucks for a single pipe. Total piss take imo.
