I too had belt slipping issues when I swapped pulleys. I realized at once what the noise was because I had a boost gauge that wasnt going past 3psi but it did freak me out at first.
But for anyone who is considering swapping the NST on there, it does give you more power that you can feel.

I saw on the description of the NST Pully that your not supposed to use it if you have a supercharger that has the factory ECU reflash. What's up with that? it doesnt make sense to me.
Does everyone who has this pully installed on their TC have the factory Reflash?

*NOTE: NST02065 SC Pulley NOT intended for use without TRD ECU Reflash.
This means that you should be running the factory ECU reflash. Toyota will reflash your ECU for you when they install the TRD SC. Some people used to install the SC without the reflash and that was quickly regarded as a bad idea by the experts.
I know a lot of people with the NST 9.5 pulley who have had no problems.

ZPI 9PSI Pulley, DC Sport Header, Meagan S-Pipe (crap), TRD Exhaust, ZPI Crank Pulley, Nology Wires, NST Water pump pulley, NST Alt. overdrive Pulley. copper plugs (step colder), PLX Wideband controller, Greddy Ultimate with MAP (no settings), TRD ECM reflash, homemade Short ram intake, Royal Purple 5W-30 synthetic, Lucas Oils Synthetic Stabilizer, Royal Purple 75W-90 synthetic gear oil, custom oil cooler, Redline Water Wetter.
Car ran great before I installed the Greddy Ultimate before it began to run lean, but still made power. Kenny Tran (Jotech Racing) dyno-tune cleaned it up to a safe A/F ratio 228.4WHP and 190.8Lbs TQ. I just got this tune last week. My tC has 39.8K miles of which I have had the TRD since 11K miles and boosted to 9PSI since 15K miles. Absolutely NO problems whatsoever, except for a lack of traction.

I just read this post - i have been on the forum for years now - nobody has a problem with the NST 9.5pulley. I "think" i put the gates on mine if I remember correctly. I found in some notes: 890k7 size which I think came off of a 1996 jeep grand cherokee (the larger engine one). Dont take the belt for fact but if you read other people are using that one ...thats the one. As for the pulley, it has been proven that 9.5 is safe to use with the TRD map. Simple as that. Search back for posts years ago and you will see the same outcome. You guys arent the first s/c people. hehe. A lot of people did their homework on this product.
I had a real hard time finding the belt needed. The central NJ area just didnt have them. North jersey people didnt have a problem - so go figure. I ordered mine online and got it $2 less with rush shipping. East coast prices are around $40-50. There are places out west that were selling it for $28-35. Go figure.
