Lower crank pulley VAP or EuroToys
#1

So I know that most of us here have gone with the VAP lower crank pulley, but I wondering if anyone has installed the lower pulley from EuroToys. The EuroToys lower pulley is 11.3% larger vs. the VAP lower pulley, which is 11.8% larger. What real difference would the .5% in circumference make to boost? Would there be any other significant differences between the two? They are both constructed of the same aluminum, but the EuroToys is anodized black for some reason? Why?

We offer in both aluminum & steel. Aluminum has the advantage of being lighter, but the OEM pulley is rubber mass damped, and some feel the steel, with a little added mass is going to provide more damping of vibration between charger & crank.

Also, wondering if Stuart from VAP has anyone in Dallas that they have a working relationship with for dyno tuning. Stohlen did an awesome write up on the R&R for the crank pulley which took the DIY jitters away.

Alright! I will need to have the guys at VAP look at my datalog files after the install because I want to know what a 50shot will do with the tune and lower pulley combo. Pretty sure that they will need to adjust something in the tune. Stuart, can I pm you regarding this? I spoke with Chris about sending you datalogs a few months ago and I have the OBDMx and the ScanXL software.
I have heard about LG Motorsports. They are opening up a race track up there, but I didn't know they were tuning as well. Trip to Anna wouldn't be so bad.

That being said, you're not the first to spray on this engine. Those who have may chime in for you. Perhaps a separate thread?

Hi Guys,
As a fairly new guy here, I am still learning the ins and outs of my F-Type. Have been watching the pulley threads and trying to decide if adding a pulley to my '17 V6 will work or add anything to it. I understand any additions at this point can/could void warranty.

Of course as you may have seen on a couple of threads on this board around that topic, there seems to be a Dirty Harry theme of "do you feel lucky punk, well do ya?" in regards to JLR warranty should the inconceivable happen....

Just for anyone who is following this thread - we have announced a $150 price reduction as well as the introduction of the 'correct' double sided v-belt for an OEM look, and a faster and easier installation.
