Lightweight aluminum pulleys like the NST -Lite Series of pulleys are usually about 70% lighter than the OEM pulleys they replace. Weight reduction in the rotating assembly leads to better throttle response and allows the engine to rev up to speed more quickly.

Lightweight underdrive aluminum pulleys like the NST Underdrive Crank Pulley take it one step further. You get the throttle response associated with weight reduction, and you also slow the accessories a bit to allow more hp to be sent to the wheels.

Testing has shown roughly 6-10 HP being freed on most four cylinder engines when an NST pulley kit has been installed. Other gains are better throttle response, better fuel economy via the weight reduction, and a better looking engine bay.

i dont know if its been discussed but do the accessories like a/c work LESS effectively because of the pulleys drawing power towards power delivery?

well the accessories do lose a little power but its not enough to notice, ac will work fine and they do make an overdrive alt pully to bring the alt back to where it should be, or you can opt for the CR-Lite pulley like me and then you wont have to worry about the acc. running low.

and coryjames, the 120 price tag is well worth it. there are things in that price range that you may want to buy but give it a shot, i did and im happy.

For $110, you get the excellent performance, the only pulley that is hard anodized for best long term use, color options, excellent service, and a pulley from the leader in pulley development for the Scion lineup. Finally, take a look around our website, www.NonStopTuning.com , and look at how many pulleys we have developed over the past few years. You would be very hard pressed to find another pulley retailer that can match our level of experience when it comes to pulley kits.

You can also try the following links to see what other pulleys usually sell for...

This thread is turning into a progressive commercial... we show you our pricing and our competitor's!!!

Any new user reviews/thoughts/comments from current NST pulley owners?

I'm just curious when I'm going to get an email back... I sent a question a couple weeks ago with no reply.

I just want to know what size the alternator pulley is. I have a high output alternator made for a tC and the pulley is too large for the xB2. And I'm not sure if you're aware, but the xB2's alternator has some sort of a clutch in it. Does your pulley retain said clutch or will it be solid like the tC's?

I noticed the tC and the xB2's alt part numbers are the same.

Our Overdrive Alternator Pulley is roughly 55mm and delivers roughly 15% more power/juice/output from the alternator in comparison to the OEM pulley.

Our pulley also eliminates the clutch mechanism and will run the alternator at idle. This is a very good thing for our customers who have upgrades stereo systems, extra lighting, etc.

We have been selling this pulley since early in 2005 and all of our customers have responded with great reviews and comments about their first hand experiences with this pulley.

Thanks again, good luck and have fun with your project!

I believe just the crank pulley is 5-7 hp though it may be up to 10. A combination of all three is your best bet because you get rid of A LOT of rotating mass. I have heard amazing things from people that have purchased just the crank pulley. NST makes great quality products. I have bought from them before and will buy from them in the very near future. Plus, Mike is a great guy and is very enthusiastic about answering questions and making sure all of his customers get the best product possible.

This is a very good installation guide.


We expect to have more pulleys back in stock in about two weeks.
