I don't know many people here on the boards that are heavily modded. Never heard a cammed Vibe. Most boost anyone to my best knowledge has run on the Vibe is 14 psi's. So, yeah. Pulley's have been done though.Inder

I have Unorthodox Racing, pulleys. I put them on when I went on leave back in June. To bad I only got to drive my car for a couple of days with the new mods on it before leave was over. I felt an initial pull when accelerating. They say it can take up to 7 days for the computer to readjust for them to give the full advantage of them.(Leave) Army term for vacation.Man is it January yet, I want to drive my car.http://www.unorthodoxracing.com/

Yeah i have a few things. List includes CAI,Monkey Wrench flywheel, ACT HD clutch, JP performance header/high flow cat/midpipe combo with Magnaflow axleback Enegry suspension motor mounts. A supercharger is on my wish list. As for the pulleys aparentely the guys with the 2-zz with have problems with the pulleys creating a vibration in the oil pump shaft. Us 1-zz owners are OK. Due to lower RPM's

Good looking out guys. But dam dam dam. Man what a waste of money, but I guess I am not wasting my time and money getting a new engine. Thanks a lot once again.
My 2ZZ is being rebuilt right now. Not as a result of the pulleys, though...Anyways, I'll have a complete rebuilt bottom end, including forged pistons and a higher C/R. In order for you to get con rods installed, it's gonna cost you a pretty penny, unless your tackling it yourself.
