Default NonStopTuning

i have an R18 and dont know if i should but the injen cai or if i should but the NST pulleys?

i know that for the r18 its a 3 pulley swap

15% Crank
15% Alternator
WP-Lite Water Pump


but how hard is it to change these pulleys, i know the alternator is probably the easiest pulley on the r18 to change due to its right infront of you, but wut about the other ones?

I was contacted by NST to be a "tester/sponsor" vehicle for the 06si.

The owner of the company seems legit and researched deemed valid

HOWEVER... the net gains weren't really worth the possible damage to motor OR voiding of warranty risk...

thats my .02

if you got money to put down...hey why not? i'd figure that the r18 motors arent that expensive to replace...since its just like a sohc.....but if you got the right stuff....i think it would be real easy to install.

went fishing around on nonstoptuning.com

they seem legit to me.

88$ for water pump and alternator. 125$ for the crank.

7-10 hp gains, i personally wouldnt do it.

but hey like the ****ster said, if you got the money, go for it




then come back with a review
