Hey at least he didn't call you a dumb idiot! Although I am sure that would only happen once.


OH, I AM NOT SAYING YOU ARE A DUMB IDIOT! That read badly.

Our car is a low-budget platform and there are a lot of low quality stuff. Many people cannot justify to buy a 1k-2k aftermarket part, when the whole car has a cost in the range of 22k-25k.

This is so true... I won't even joke around. If he get perma banned, you know what happened.

Anyways, back ON-topic.
Mods to avoid is up to the owner. Not all mods gonna fit everyone's need. Some parts works for one person's setup, but might not & fuck it up for other person's setup.

Like I have always said if it is a viable topic it will rerail (new word) on it's own and if not then who cares?

I 100% disagree. I saw the topic and clicked on it, expecting a conversation about mods, the people who kill all the fun in this forum.

I once lost an account on a private torrent tracker because of inactivity. The guy in the IRC forum demanded I take a photo of myself with some weird household object and a sign that said how much I loved the tracker. Instead, I drew a picture in MS Paint of me butt-sexing the op.

For some reason, they didn't give me my account back.

So basically the debate is whether the oem pulley is balanced or not? I'd say that my Perrin crank pulley is one of my favorite mods. I can rev match much easier, and I can put the car in 6th at 40mph without lugging the engine. It would lug at those speeds with the stock pulley.

Still something tells me it's bad...but I'd like to see some evidence obviously.

Here's a pretty accessible article. It pushes a specific product but the effects are real.

If one doesn't wish to bother with the science, consider the cost. A simple pulley is much cheaper to manufacture than a harmonic damper. Why do OEMs use them?

Here's another article. Pretty well written - no math.
