Talking Lightweight pulley wow

Omg, hurry up and get one! I cant believe the difference in throttle response especially when your foot is completely off the pedal. Ive never bothered with mods like that before because i was skeptical.

So Please get rid of this


Replace it with that

Mine should be here on Monday, I was worried at first as most of the cars I've had, pulleys have caused issues with the oil pump, but the OEM pulley doesn't seem to have any harmonic balancing.

It's like a cheaper lightweight flywheel!

They will use that as an excuse if something goes wrong later.
But if your chassis busts then your warranty will work because the pulley has No correlation to the actual chassis.
So all in all the dealer has to prove that the pulley is what broke whatever thing you're trying to get warranty on

Took me 10 minutes to install. Release belt tension with a 14mm wrench on the tensionner. Make sure you have a long and strong breaker bar put the car in 6th gear with the handbrake on and thats it. The crank bolt is on reallytight so dont be shy!

I was a bit skeptical about these but I keep reading rave reviews. I am going to put this on my list of early upgrades.

I'd want to reduce the weight at the back of the motor, too. Seems I won't have my warranty long...
