I don't think it's right.
I remember there was one for the Solara.
But where did it go????

I've got it installed and Alan did feel the difference when he was street tuning. I really don't know because I didn't get a chance to push it. Right now I've got an oil leak that may have been caused on the install. I see the leak coming from under the pulley area. So, UPFD is fixing the leak and as soon as there finished I'm getting it tuned and dynoed. I'm hoping by the end of the week, but we'll see...

Oh wow I can't believe it. . . They said it was going to be a limited production. . . I guess they really did stop making them. . . and the Solara one isn't underdrive. . . It's just a lighter crank pulley

I've been driving with this pulley for a few weeks now, and I can definitely tell a difference. I think what you will feel most is that your car is more efficient in the sense that it accelerates easier, especially when you get to 3,000 rpm because that is where the S/C's really seem to kick in. You zip right through those rpm's.

For comparison sake, it is sort of like when you got your cold air intake, your car would rev better, easier, as if there was less restriction. Well the pulley has that same effect and feel as well: your car revs easier, feels less restrictive. The overall effect is that your car is quicker, especially when the S/C really takes over. Probably not a good description, but that's the best way I can explain it.

Finally got my cold air intake on, and I am loving it. I'm getting my flywheel and clutch installed in a few weeks after my vacation, so I can't wait for that. Then it will be time for the $2,000 exhaust system.
