Help please with supercharger kit

[crc13]

Hello, I have a supercharger on my car, 95 m3, and I am taking it off. I am trying to figure out what all goes with a kit. I think it is an ert kit. Does the main crankshaft pulley come off and go with the kit? If so, how do I get it off?

Yes, typically there're six (6) M8 bolts__13 mm head__that secures the pulley to the damper.

You'll need another "single" pulley to bolt back in its place to drive your a/c compressor.

So those are the only bolts that hold the pulley? Do I need to hammer it off then? I took those six bolts off but it does not budge.

No, no... When you take off the 6 bolts, it simply pops out (with slight pressure). Dont put pressure on the outer gear, you pry on the inner part that hold the AC belt. In your photo the darker black part that holds the two belts; pry between the back of the dark black lip and the faded black OE crank/main drive belt.

You can use a rubber mallet to gently tap it off... if you're absolutely sure all the bolts are removed. Do not hammer on it though. That is an aluminum pulley. The next owner will not appreciate unnecessary damages from prying or hammering.
