Finally got mine installed for a few weeks and 400 miles. Instant engagement and no more grinding sound when stomping the gas pedal like before. Had bearings that were on their way out.

 

always order from the guys who make the product if you want it to get the proper support, shims come with it from Brooke and Shardul

 

I got shims from Eurocharged

 

Were the shims taped to it or something? I got the pulley wrapped in like sheet foam and tape wound around it a few times. That was tossed in the box with the heat exchanger. It all got here safely and was packaged well enough, just didn't find any shims/washers anywhere? Are they something that I can source locally or are they somewhat special in some way?

 

Contact EC, they will send you some im sure.. Ya they were taped to the bottom of the pulley.

 

I've had mine for about 3500 miles already and let me tell you.....it's BEAST!!!!

 

glad you like it!

 

Can someone tell me the size of the torx bit that will be needed?

 

Hi

Can't wait to fit my pulley!

Regards.

Mine came with shims, but used no shims at all to come into factory spec. clearance. Several thousand miles, working great.

 

Have you measured it again after you drove it for a while? Some people have reported that the clearance has decreased after being driven and needed to be re-shimmed.
