Scratch and Dent?
Occasionally, we get new parts or returns that have cosmetic blemishes that do not affect the functionality of the part. Rather than toss them in the scrap bin, we offer the parts for sale at a deeply discounted price. In many cases, the location of the blemish prevents it from even being seen once the part is installed. Like all of our products, we still guarantee it to be the correct fit and to work properly and will offer to exchange components should anything need adjustment. Please note that we do not issue refunds for scratch and dent parts.

More GO
Our S/C Pulley is 15% smaller than the stock R53 pulley, which allows it to spin faster, increasing the boost. This increased boost results in increased acceleration, and this increased acceleration results in increased awesomeness.
We’ve included a slightly smaller belt in this kit that accounts for the 15% reduction in pulley size for a perfect fit. We’ve also included spark plugs that are a range colder than the OEM plugs, reducing the chances of pre-ignition.
Safe for Extended Use
CravenSpeed's supercharger pulleys are machined to a specific reduction of the original equipment on your MINI's supercharger. It is widely accepted that these sizes are safe amount of reduction on this particular supercharger. Smooth, form fitting teeth on your pulley take longer to machine but are worth the extra time. Our pulleys will neither eat nor throw your belt. You can be confident your belt will last long, and run quietly.
15% or 17% ??
If both sizes are safe for the supercharger which one should you choose? The supercharger is only creating boost under acceleration, on a normal or even a spirited drive this is only occasional. However, at the track or an autocross event acceleration is sustained and frequent. If you use your MINI for these types of events it is better to use the 15% reduction. This is because the 17% pulley causes the supercharger to heat more rapidly and the warm air begins to negate the positive effects of the extra PSI earlier in the band.Click here for the 17% reduction kit.
Fitment
This pulley will work on all supercharged MINI models except the JCW which already has a similarly reduced size pulley on the supercharger. Although this two part pulley is self-centering to help ease installation you may still want to check our dealer finder for a CravenSpeed Authorized Installer near you. If you plan do on wrenching on your own, make sure you have a puller designed to remove the MINI's press-fit OEM pulley. Our quick puller allows you to remove the OEM pulley without removing the tensioner.
