Looks good, when is it arriving? My pulley kit definitely made a difference. Hopefully you are happy with the results.

im getting my car dynoed this week before pulley and then after it.
then i need to find someone with a Vbox so i can record my 60-130 times M3 boys saying i will be lucky if i do it in 14 secs ROFL.

The kid i raced in that 370Z Nismo just ordered his TT kit i guess losing to a milf mobile gave him the last push to get it.

Yeah, that's the harmonic dampner.

I was going to, let me rephrase, I did order one but because of a shipping delay I didn't get it. AMS was excellent about refunding my money very quickly, I was very please in my dealings with them from start to finish (bought their headers too).

I'm certainly not going to stir any ***** pots here but I have read a few threads about this pulley that very good and a few are less than positive. Mainly, it has worked itself loose on a few engines - it may or may not have been as a result of a poor installation. So, if I were you I would be checking the torque every few days for the first few weeks after install, it is aluminium and like wheels, it can somewhat compress and could get loose if not re-torqued.

I just want to make sure that it was rubber then it an "harmonic dampner". If it not an harmonic dampner" then I was going to rip about it. Evosport used to sell the alloy crank pulley without the harmonic dampner. In my opinions, it a NO !! NO!!

From what I have read/seen about your kit - no. The AMS pulley isn't an underdrive system like yours, its a crank pulley/dampner repalcement using a same sized put much lighter (reduced mass) one.

I've heard a lot of great things about your Evo system and would like to run one myself but with the ridiculous heat here, I don't want anything underdriven.

*Edit* sorry, meant to reply to Wes.

Good Lord no! I'd never run something like that. Now, what would be really trick is to have an underdrive system with a reduced mass crank pulley with an integral fluid dampner Ran a fluid dampner on a 327 years ago, very very nice piece of kit.
