It's ok, a lot of people are skeptical of pulleys but thanks for the update.


Oh I'm good about pulleys, its the "whole" kit that bothers me that might mess up the timing.

 No, timing is electronically adjusted and is not dependent upon mechanical adjuster driven off oil pressure. The ECM determines the final timing for the engine so it will adjust to what you have. Inlikeflint has been running this kit for close to a year if not more with no issues.

Just checked with their post on the site and this kit is for NA. No kits available for turbos yet.


Don't see any reason that you can't use this setup on a Turbo.


Not sure if it's something to do with boost spiking, like with the S/C, but the waste gates should control the allowance of pressure into the manifold. Maybe the vendor that will get this going on here can check with NST for us and confirm all questions.

BUMP for more names.

 My head shop tech for Audi has an F250 COMPLETELY built with internals and turbo components, and he said he's been running a full underdrive kit on his truck for over 4 years with no issues. The only issues you'll come into are audio output and drainage from amp loss. If you don't care about audio or are running just simple stock setups, you'll be 100% ok.

I know I'm getting a little off topic here and you didn't want to turn this into an ask questions thread, but you've got me 1/2 way me on the waiting list... but first read this-

i have underdrive pulleys on my bel-air, of course an e-cam doesn't help any, but yes you will have your timing adversely affected, hence the msd distributor..i had to advance to compensate the bad idling, but that shit kills my plugs and gas, and then of course i had to adjust the jets on the carb, not a problem we'd experience with a tc but that's what underdrive pulleys will do for and to you, all for 15 horses, or so they claim...and, i went through two belts already cuz the one i put when i changed the pulleys was too loose, the second too tight, or so my dad says..

He's also talking about his engine in his Belair....which I believe he has a 350 in it. Timing is driven by oil pressure in those engines as well as a belt. Our engines are CHAIN driven (no slipping what so ever) and also have the ECM as the final dictator of timing vs. just relying on oil psi. PM Inlikflint, or maybe he'll chime in, but he's had this kit on his car for a year or more and hasn't had one issue. He still recommends the kit as much as he did when he first bought it.

 One good thing about our crank pulley is that it's impossible to mess up the timing . There's a single notch with NO numbers or timing marks to align. It just slides on and you're on your way. B/c it's chain driven, it can't jump time unless the chain or gears actually break. Hope that helps clear some confusion up.

 ^^Absolutely. Like you said a few posts back, the only concern with running an underdrive setup will be for high output audio systems. The underdrive won't turn the alternator enough to keep up with the power drain. Shouldn't be a concern for a mild aftermarket system, but multiple amps should watch out or get a new alternator. Also, turbos don't experience the boost spike like a supercharger would, so no issue there either.

Just curious though, Web, why the sudden interest in the NST setup? I've been happy with my Agency pully for about 20k now, so why do I want to change it to this setup? If I did go with the NST's I might have to replace the alternator due to the system I'm installing, so I need a little convincing before I make that investment.

 I'm doing it b/c I don't care about audio output. I'm trying to squeeze every little bit out of my engine and still keep it a comfortable daily driver. I like to play at the track and on the streets sometimes, but in the end, I just want to see what this engine can do safely.

I've had my agency pulley for close to 60K with no issues so I can vouch that on this engine, a light weight stock size pulley does no harm. I have seen Inlikeflint's timeline and have been reassured that underdriving this engine does not have any negative effects as well. I've spoken to both the Audi head tech and another tech in the shop (pretty much 2nd in command) and they both have been running underdrive kits on their vehicles for a long time. The head tech does have some audio equipment but has a double capacity alternator (the F250) and the other is just all motor with no audio other than just plug and play speakers.

 Gotcha. I was hoping you'd figured out some secret way to rock 300whp with a i/h/e/p combo supersized w/ extra special sauce, lol. Bump for the groupbuy :mrgreen:

It helps your engine utilize the power that's already there stored in the rotational components. The easier something spins, the more power it has already produced is allowed to get to the ground. The heavier the components and rotational resistance, the more you'll feel when putting an underdrive kit.
