nice write up

just a heads up, the pulleys help with the car stalling at idle when you have cold air, or exhaust...

I might take mine off, they dont work well with boost

[ninja_bankai]

just to clarify things, if i bought all 3 of the pulleys, i will need the P070760 / K070760 belt for it to work perfectly right?

I got the 2 piece kit awhile back and when I went to purchase the belt every place I went to said they dont make the 7rib in the length we need for the R18 so I purchased the 6 rib with the correct length. I recently started getting prices at local shops to get the kit installed since I can break the crank bolt loose myself. When I talked a mechanic about the belt he said the 6 rib is fine even though its 1 rib short because it will have tension on it and wont jump off track. You just have to make sure you on all inner or outer tracks on the pulleys.

For those that paid a shop to install their kit, how much did you guys pay?

^Correction...I got all 3 pulleys.

[akronmusician413]

so it is ok as long as it is installed right?
