Hi guys does anyone knows what the bigger pulley gives to a car? Thanks
 
Don't understand the question. Which pulley, where, bigger in thickness or diameter, are you driving a DAF, or perhaps a Bedelia or some other belt driven car?
 
I'm guessing supercharger pulley on an E55K AMG?
 
If Supercharger pulley, then this is one way of increasing the Supercharger boost i.e. by making it spin faster.

More air intake allows more fuel intake which equals more fuel burnt and more power.

There are other factors at work (and cars fitted with higher boost from the factory will also have lower compression ratio) but that's what the larger pulley does in a nutshell.

Or any Kompressor car for that matter...

I'm going by the profile pic... i.e. he had a W211 before so might be going for a faster one. :D

W210 doesn't have a supercharger though - you need a W211 for that...
