Is this a good idea or is it a waste for turbo applications?

What do you need the light for?

 

so it matches his wheels with the firefly thingy's when he's rollin' duh

 

Lighted. HA HA. Jokes on me.

I don't have a Flame Suit or a dictionary. Should I get one for the future?

Yes you should. A mod was the first person to flame! Ouch!

 

So, back to the topic. Keeping my stock crank pulley is a good idea.

If you havent already baught the crank pully, then leave it stock and use the money towards something that will help you out a lil better. like tunning or something that'll have greater benifits. A pully is something an N/A guru would get because they need to squeeze as much as possible out of their motors. On boost you just tune and up the boost until you are at your goal or limit.

Yes it is

 

I have an unorthodox crank pulley.. its light as hell.. ive had it for about 15-20k miles... didnt really seem to make much of a difference.

 

good way to spin a bearing if u got lighten fly also...

I would think because its so damn easy to over rev the engine w/ one.

I went from a stock GSR flywheel to a 8lb flywheel on my b20 turbo. It didnt help performance much at all, shifting seems to be differnt. You have to flatfoot shift when raceing or your RPMs will drop you outta boost easy with a bigger turbo. Id rather spend the money else where unless i had money to waist haha... my .02 cents

 

I was thinking about gettting one Tom@camp1320.com said they work great for turbo cars. The OEM N1 CTR pulley. anyone have any input with the CTR N1 factory pulley its stock right.??

 

i've read about lightend pulleys ******* up oil pumps because they dont have harmonic dampeners. I would recommend the ctr pulley because its light and it comes with the dampener, so you dont gotta worry about oil pump failure and such.

 

I've had my UR crank pully for about two years now w/o any problems.

 

&lt;Sarcasm&gt;I really like this Fluidampr pulley thing Arturbo is selling. Might just be hype I dont think it works too good but it looks ok.&lt;/Sarcasm&gt;

That's pretty cool looking. Looks kind of like a land mine.

Might save me from a land mine

From Fluidampr ...

"The inertia ring inside Fluidampr shears through a thin film of highly viscous silicone fluid to effectively control harmonic vibration at all engine speeds. But what is silicone fluid really like? Well, fluid is somewhat of a misnomer because it is really more like a gel. The silicone fluid used in Fluidampr is clear in color and is more than 45,000 times thicker (more viscous) than 30 weight motor oil.

Silicone fluid is a very good damping medium because it is relatively unaffected by temperature changes. Thus, it provides consistent damping in both winter and summer. The fluid does not harden or change viscosity if Fluidampr is not used for a period of time. The fluid is so durable that big rig, 18 wheeler truck engines are mostly all equipped with viscous fluid-type dampers.

Silicone fluid's damping capability is unmatched. That's why the fluid inside Fluidampr is guaranteed for as long as you own it."

 

I have a fluidamper going onto my built motor. On my stock block I just left the stock pulley, and I'm not revving much higher than stock (8500rpm's)

 

honda motors are pretty damn well balanced internally .. i dont know why people are knocking the lightened pulleys especially when there are 100's of people on here with them who have never had a problem. find me a thread or 2 which says they had a serious motor problem DUE to having a lightened pulley..

 

i went with the CTR n1 pulley, cheep and affective
