Just got my Used Grey NST CR Lite Crank Pulley from tk-421. Thanks Bernie. It's in as new condition. I've done a bit of a search but I can't find a DIY for install. Is there one? I'm not even going to try to install this myself as i'm not mechanically minded, but i'd like to see how it's done and I have friends who are mechanically minded who could do it with instructions.

If there is no DIY how long would it take a mechanic to intall one?

I've been quoted $90 an hour labour and been told it may take an hour-an hour and a half!

Honestly , if it takes them an hour , find a new Mechanic.
put up on hoist (5 min)
take drives side front wheel of (5 min)
use air impact gun to remove pullie nut (5 min)
remove old pullie ,and put new one on . (5 min)
put nut back on and tighten (5 min )
(replace if need) and tighten alt belt (10min)
put wheel back on (5 min )
test belt tightnes (5min)
total 45min's
and thats taking it real easy.

oh and there was a DIY , but it was removed last month by it's creator.
Hmmmm

Because he decided that he no longer wishes to be part of YW.

But you can find the same DIY installation guide at the following link...

Excellent DIY guide!

2008 Yaris LB 5-speed

I am running the NST 10% Underdrive CR-lite pulley. My only other HP-related mods are a Thunder axle-back and a TRD CAI w/WeaponR Secret Weapon dry filter. I just made 107 WHP and 106 TQ on a Mustang Dyno this saturday, in mid-70's (degrees F) weather.

I also am very pleased with the SSK.

hi. i'm about to install an underdrive pulley tomorrow morning and was reading over the diy from the other site. there mentions a tic tac sized dowel that makes me slightly nervous. was wondering if i could get one ahead of time just in case i lose this from napa or the dealer and what it might be called there. thanks in advance!

Brian.

I just got the CR-Lite Pulley Set installed. Great product. Butt dyno says there's some gains in HP. Also, seems to me that it revs quicker. Oh btw, they were the BLUE pulley's I bought from a board member.

Wow! Blue ones were made for a very short time, they're pretty rare.
Thanks again for the review and the kind words, good luck with all your projects!

I have the 10% underdrive crankpulley on my 1.8 TS and it's a very,very great mod. Feels like a lot more horsepower.

It's not hard to keep track of, but you REALLY don't want to lose it.
