I think I know. Someone from the site. Oh well, I doubt anyone will buy it. Mine is still doing good on the desk at home. I was thinking about putting it away somewhere, but it was so much money.

Since you know this part is faulty you need to say so in your auction. Otherwise you could get sued for the same reason DH is getting sued (is that still going on?).

Seriously tho, by selling it as legit you're being a d.ick and someone might fvck up their car because of it.

So pretty much, you suck.

Someone mentioned that DH-Racing was filled a law suit. Who is the plaintiff? Is it an organized lawsuit with more than one party in it?

I am curious to know I might know someone that could help. Thank you

I know its funny sorry guys, I know I suck and i wouldn't mean to hurt anyones engine but we have no proof that this pulley actually breaks engines just the general fact that ones without the dampner will - I was just not bold enough to put it on but others may be bold to, I have had friends that have had other pulleys with 30,000 mile and no damage and none were like DHrs sooo

Not bad. Is the pulley a non-working pulley? If so that can be another civil case brought up against them for false advertising. There is no need of damage to be prooved since it can simply be proven by it not properly working.

Goes into contracts really. The plaintiff would have to find a good lawyer that is familier with contracts.

False advertising is the main thing.

-they claim that it's safe for daily driving when it's only good for race motors.
-they claim at least 10whp when it hardly even makes 1hp.
-They said it's perfectly balanced even though there is no harmonic dampener.
-They say it's safe, even though pullies with same design have ruined turbos, blown bearings, and even caused oil pump failure as early as 15k miles.

I can go on all day.

Some form of a petition going to take place here? All of the people that were harmed and had losses going to sign? This is interesting. I hate to see people out there taking advantage of other people.

I wouldn't rip someone off just because I needed the cash. Fvck you. Have some class. Not everyone is an *** hole.

If I were going to sell it I would at least say it doesn't work or something.
