| I am curious to how many xD owners out there are interested in a company developing some nice pulleys. I plan on going serious performance with my xD and need these badly. Anyone else? |

| yes, but there is not much demand from the rolla crowd. We are going to have to create enough demand on our own. If the Yaris kids can make the buzz why cant we? |

A very small sample of what the Yaris kids have done for NST, and what NST has done for the Yaris kids....

Create a poll, see how many people express interest.
I personally have no plans to mess with the drivetrain. Even on my old tC I just played with the SC pulley since it actually made significant HP gains, plus I'm still scared to get rid of the harmonic balancer... |

Thnk about it... if NST made one pulley that would fit both the Scion XD , 1.8L Yaris and the New Corolla then there would be a good demand from each car for NST to produce this, don't you thnk so? |

Yes, you would think so. But consider this from the past few years...
We built pulleys for the Corollas of the late 90s, no one seemed interested. We built the most complete pulley kit for the xA and xB, no one seemed interested. We sat on a ton of product for a long time, while the corolla was being touted as the number one selling car in the world!
I would LOVE nothing more than to build pulleys for you guys and your xD. But if we dump tons of cash into R&D, and then tons more into building a full production run, will you guys support us?
I can not put this into more simple, blunt, and honest words.
