EvoSport pullies finally installed!

And yes, like others have said it's noticeable. I notice it more off the line.
The PITA was the power steering pulley (removal) and I had AutoThority
in Fairfax pull that mamma off.

Congrats! I have had mine for 3 weeks, but I haven't had the time to install it myself or have it installed. I have called a couple of places here in the SF area, but they haven't wanted to touch it.

That's near my house, is it a good shop? How much did they charge?

After I install mine, it's time to go to the track!

It's a great shop. I paid $250. Ask for Jeff (I think Nate did the actual work). It took Nate two hours to pull that PS pulley off - it was on there cause my
neighbors and I couldn't budge it.
