I love my NST pulley. My idle seems smoother now than it did before and I have better response in every gear at every RPM. I hope they release other pulleys for us soon

It revs up quicker, which I notice the most when I give it more than half throttle to full throttle at speeds above 30mph or so. At a standstill in "P" when I rev it up it sounds smoother. As far as idle goes, it seems like the car is quieter now. From about 20ft away I can barely here it running, and thats with the TRD exhaust. All in all the car feels lighter when I give it some gas (or a lot, lol), seems smoother and revs up quicker. I haven't got the numbers yet on MPG (the last time I checked before the install I got 28.9mpg, but I was pushing the car pretty hard in town and on the freeway, almost all of my driving was in town for that tank). I do know I filled up a couple days ago and even with all in town driving my gas gauge hasn't dropped a bar. I should have some good numbers next week.

I don't doubt it! It was just EXTREMELY funny. In the year or so I've been here looking at that sombrero, nobody has asked that.

I have the auto, and I can say, the NST pulley made a difference. I am getting better gas mileage, more mid-range torque, a quiet engine, and better acceleration. Not so much "off the line" but very noticeable if you already have some forward momentum and give the accelerator a push. It also weighs about 2lbs less than the stock pulley. I love mine and did notice the difference.

Very interesting...
I have a seriously noob question though. Having never tackled anything remotely close to this myself, what keeps the whole pulley/shaft from rotating as you tighten that bolt down to 120+lbs? ~YR
