I hope it is worth the $56. not a bad investment if it improves my gas milage.

I am not sure why i need a new belt? the other pulleys i have read about say that you can use the same belts?

Well I won it. I emailed them to ask some basic questions, how much underdriven, etc. It was only 46 bux so i figured it was worth the investment even w/o all the info on it We'll see. It does look like a nice piece... I looked on the website too and there's no pulleys at all on there... must be outdated as there are a bunch in their Ebay store.

Some pulleys are underdriven while others are just lightened. The lightened ones will use the same belt, the underdrive pulleys will be smaller and create more slack in the stock belt than you want.

I'm guessing it's similar dimension-wise to the Unorthodox underdriven one, but looks more like the stock one with 4 spokes (but billet of course...)

Look what just arrived today...





I'm debating whether I want to install this or not... just did an exhaust and intake and don't know if I really need it. Looks very well made tho, very light. What do you guys think?

I don't think it would be smart to install it. Why would toyota make a pulley that's more then 4 pounds in the first place? Makes me think there's a reason why it's that weight.

Yah, its called lets build this thing as cheep as possible. Cast iron is much more cost effective than billet aluminum.

I got mine in the mail and I will be installing it soon, I will let you know what the results are.
