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.

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

Yikes, those crank pulleys sure seem like they're completely worth the small boost in power!

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.
