Can any body recomend a quality 15% charger pulley that can be shipped the same day it's ordered?

My head is about to explode. We decided to get a 15% . Thought it would be a safe small change that would provide better "seat of the pants" performance & braggin' rights. Did a little (very little) poking around & ordered one from Alta. Can't get one shipped in a reasonable time frame. Car was torn down for a coolant leak & is waiting for a pulley to go back together. We didn't mind waiting a little over a week for the back order but we keep getting reports that the back order is getting longer & longer. We have spent a week ordering & cancelling orders that can't be filled. Come to mention it we haven't seen that matching belt yet either. I can't say I'm mad at Alta but I need a freakin' pulley.

ok, so im going to get a 17% kit from way, but I also plan on getting either the 2% or 3% crank pulley from alta/ cravenspeed. From what I have been hearing these two pullies add together and would give me the equivelant of a 20- 21 % reduction correct? If so thats, no bueno without an intercooler and meth. Anyone have a similar setup or am I wrong on my thinking? any help?...Way?

 

I'd be weary of installing one of the above mentioned crank pulleys as they do not have harmonic balncers on them and have the potential of messing up your engine. Since you are going to order the 17% kit from WMW, why not go for the ATI Super Crank Pulley http://www.waymotorworks.com/super-d...ulley-r53.html ? You can get it 2% oversized as well!

 

+1 for what davisflyer said. If you are going to do a crank pulley either ATI or stock.

 

I thought you did need to have a dampened crank pulley unless you are always near/at redline. I would recommend te alta lightened (not oversize) crank pulley.

If you r going the oversize route do get a dampened pulley since with 21% reduction those dangerous frequency normally not reached will b in sight

 

We have pullies in stock and can ship today, or even overnight if you need.
BAD IDEA, 20-21% reduction would be waaaay to much. You would over spin the supercharger and water pump, and also throw over boost codes.
If you want a crank pulley you should go with the ATI damper. I do not recommend the aluminum lightweight crank pullies. Without the damper it is hard on the bearings, and oil pumps. Oh and yes there is proof of this. The last two motors I did had lightweight crank pullies and you should see the bearings out of them, they are in horrible shape.

 

Do you offer a pulley puller rental with order?

 

Yes when you buy one of our WMW pullies we rent it to you for FREE

 

do you need a small size belt if you are going 16% ???

 

I have been on the fence over a 15% or 17%. I read that 17% could shorten the life of the engine. I really don't want that.

 

I don't really think 17% will cause any more problems than you will have with a 15% or even stock(other than belt wear, 17% belts should be changed every year or so). Really if an engine/SC is going to go, it will go with or without pulley mods. I just saw a thread the other day where Steve at SRTech said he has been running 18% reduction for something like 152,000 miles with no problems other than a leaky thermostat, and a bad bpv.

 

to you rent only if we buy the WMW pullies or any pulley u sell ?

 

ONLY if you buy a pulley from US, I don't care which of our pullies you buy, but I try to make recommendations.

 

sounds fair.

 

Way ... ill definetly give you a call when i buy the pulley (in around 1month) and a couple of other things to make the mini a bit faster

Thanks for all the help
