Cory,
Standard or Auto = no change.

Easy, there is an oil impregnated coupler? And they do get noisy, all of them. Throttle Body http://www.extrudabody.biz/servlet/StoreFront

here is a link to the coupler... http://www.zzperformance.com/grand_p...=155&catid=106 ...i think the usual milage where the couplers begin to wear is about 50-75k... still a long ways off... driving habits, im sure, will lengthen or shorten the life... anyways, easy fix if it ever does happen...

That would be a No.

The problem is figuring the %. The Mini pulley is smaller by quite a bit - higher rate. We need to know what the Greddy ratio is before the Mini pulley is used. Keep in mind the Mini has lower end built for a blower.
I supose that we could figure the % using just the 2, Greddy - Mini, pulleys. I'll let Easy do it........

If the OE "S" pulley fits the Greddy drive, the Cooper Works & the GP will also work = smaller yet.
Cory when you get the blower get the shaft diameter & I can give you the Mini specs.

The alt pulley needs no puller. It may be that ( without the blower installed ) the drive can be measured by removing the retainer nut. If so, we will know if the Mini pulleys will fit.
