Everyone should at least file with the BBB if nothing else. With 30+ people complaining, maybe it will make a difference.

Has the BBB ever shut a business down? Exactly what actions can the BBB take to stop bad business practice?

The BBB may have trouble tracking him down since they moved to las vegas and have not listed it yet.

you guys should make a seperate page for this and put the pictures of the dyno on page 1 so it'll be easier for everyone to understand what a waste this pulley is..i dun think people would click through 90 pages to look for it. just a thought

NO! Don't ever buy it. This thing will ruin your car and was only meant for race applications. Aftermarket crank pulleys aren't safe.

Nobody better use it after all the research I did for you guys. Just take the loss on the pulley--it will be much less than fixing the damage it will cause. Anyone else e-mail Josh about a refund?

I have had the AEM pulley kit plus the UR Underdrive pulley on for over 15,000 miles now and my car has had no problems. Luck of the draw I guess.

Gearbox, I don't understand how this thing can work on some people's cars and not work on others. Other members have had no problems and others can't get it to fit. I have been checking up on the this thread ever since it got started and it seems like it works but it just needs the spacer. When and if I get my pulley/spacer from Josh which "he claims he has sent it", I am going to install it and I will let you know if it fits and if I have any problems. Its just so wierd how some work and some don't, it really confuses me.

Okay to clear this up. The pulley most likely fits, but this is not the issue now. Any type of crank pulley will cause damage to your car. Go read the thread I made entitled, the truth about performance crank pulleys.

Some problems caused by lightened crank pulleys...

-underdriving accessories, alternator not able to charge the battery
-spun bearings, blown turbo
-messed up cam gear
-voids warranty
-and many more
