I don't think he was looking down on techs. I think he was merely stating that if a tech wasn't specifically looking for it, he wouldn't notice the diff pulley. They are both black, and the size diff is like 2/8".

definitely...Im already half way there...I have the paint already for the pillar from the xB when I did the gauges for the turbo, fuel pressure, oil pressure, and oil temp. All I gotta do is get the pod to fit and paint it

So nice to hear about companies with good customer service when it comes to the tuner world. You always hear about the bad ones, it's so great when you find a stand-up company like this NST rocks

I want to see that boost gauge

Any good kills yet Simplyscion? I;m not a fan of street racing or anything like that, but just wondering how the SC with the pulley does compared to other cars out there right now.

Had some fun with a N/A 300z last night....consistent 4 cars ahead the whole time from 0-90 then he gave up and gave me the thumbs up .
I messed around with my friend and his EVO last night...basically stock except for the HKS catback and he beat up on me pretty badly on the highway...keep in mind both runs were late at night on the highway with no cars in site( had a few friends that sped up ahead of us to make sure). I dont really like to street race either but its kind of hard being that the closest track is about 2.5 hours away

Hey Simplyscion what made you go with the NST pulley instead of the ZPI one? I went ZPI cause their customer service was awesome. I love the ZPI pulley but I'm wondering if the NST one is better (for more boost obviously)
