See this is critical. Everyone expects things to last forever when it comes to anything Totoya which includes aftermarket bolt-ons. It all hinges how you take care of it. Cae in point is boosting a stock 1nz. You can run 6psi for YEARS and YEARS. this will net you roughly 150-160whp. This level of performance in this chassis is very fun yet stable. Start going up to 8psi+ and that longevity begins to pull back. You could go 25k miles or even 75k miles or more depending on how you maintain and treat the system. A pulley is made with certain alloys for certain tolerances. If you use it hard then the lifespan is shortened. You make a calculated risk. These statements I make here are general and in no way supporting anything. Just plain facts.
