NST,
I sent a email to you 9 days ago concerning the CR light crank pulley that you sent to me and i have yet to receive a response.

Hello Mike,

I ordered the CR light crank pulley (2004 scion XB) awhile back and was the first person on Scion LIfe thread that reported there was something wrong with the pulley. We all found out that the machine shop did not bevel the edge.
I returned the pulley to you thinking i was getting a replacement but i got the same one back with the edge beveled.
there was damage to the pulley when i had it installed the first time but this was not because i or my mechanic did anything wrong. i would think that you would send me a new one instead of just beveling the edge and returning it to me.
i have heard nothing but good things about NST and hope that you will replace my pulley with a new one because my mechanic refuses to install this one.

Damages due to non beveling
1. inner circle is now oval instead of round
2. key pin was sheard off leaving deep gashes

Thank You,
Peter

I wouldn't say the XB2 is exempt from potential problems. I would say that in my personal experience my XB2 has not exhibited any problems stemming from the use of a NST 20% UD pulley for the last year and 20k miles. Pretty much the same thing you could read over and over in the NST pulley thread.

I've talked to a guy in the tC forum (very famous around racing), and he assures no issues other than "no big stereo". This will be my next mod.

Like i said in a post before... I own a scanguage and i have the underdrive pulley from NST. I live in Florida (read extremely hot) and my airconditioning has not suffered, my coolant temperture stays around 190 and voltage is always between 13.3-14.1. No trouble here at all.

Sounds reasonable to me ! Depending on conditions, something may have to yield, it's just a question of whether that matters to the owner.

Yeah, my reply was "no audio, too heavy".
