89mm FSP Group buy, need at least 10

If we get at least 10 to commit, Shardul / UPD will get some in the works for us at $229/each. Thanks Shardul! We'll see if we can get enough takers....

So who else is in?

89mm...yes. Some people want the closest to stock size since they have different crank pullies or just because.

Open search/advanced, put FSP and search on titles only, lots of reading.

No there is various sizes send Shardul a PM if your interested in other sizes, this 89mm is for people who have bigger crank pulleys or people who just want to get rid of the bucking clutch engagement.

Interested in the FSP to keep stock size upper with my 195 lower.

Would there be any concerns with overboosting the MAP sensor with this setup?

Highly doubt it since it's equivalent to stock size clutched pulley.

What do these cost normally? I'm not a big fan of the 'chirp' of bucking so going to get a BWK and don't want to run any more boost at his point. Are you happy to post to me in Oz? I know Shardul will if that's an issue.

Two parts: what are these worth normally.

I have been playing with a fixed pulley car, from here and there are no issues. We have the B.I.P tune in there. You can search the recent posts. Every car is different make sure your car is in perfect running order first, The minor limp mode issues were fixed with one tune adjustment and not all cars had that problem. The fixed pulley in stock size would be a great option for folks.

I'm running 84 mm clutched ,what's the downside to the fixed,more heat,worse mpg but who really cares about that,I don't like the bucking caused when s/c engages at times but if there is a host of problems and check engine lights from fixed I'll leave it alone.running bottom 168 .

If the most recent reviews don't give you enough confidence, I'd say go ahead and at least get the pulley and wait for more evaluations. When you're comfortable, you'll have it....slap it on and get the tune. That was my plan, but now that I'm confident based on the recent positive info, this pulley isn't available unless we get 10 to commit. I'll get the tune as soon as I can get a pulley and post updates....
