Wonder what "the little box that plugs into the ecu" does?

Looks like it plugs into the throttle pot to me

hmmmmmmmmmm,

what would the likely power increase be on a standard 350i ?

...Spares....Looks like its running a good amount of boost with that small pulley..And some larger ones for lower boost..That black box probably deals with boost and adjusts the timing/Fuel to suit although i cant see a map sensor on it?...Does the V8 need a crank pulley suited for the blower or does it use the existing one?...Its definitelty a bargain at the moment especially with all the bits and bobs....Ziga

Zig - you'll probably find the other pulleys are for the toothed style belt.

However there are no brackets with this kit (that I can see), nor an idler pulley, so a significant amount of engineering needed to get it up and running.

Oh ok...I think there is a belt tensioner and brackets if you scroll along the pics though..If not ill have it for spares..Cheers..Ziga

Ahh yes the bracket piccies didn't come up when I looked earlier.

Yes that looks reasonably complete then. The pulleys look poly-vee so just like yours, Zig.

You'd want to inspect the blower vanes before shelling out though...
