I just swapped out my SC-side pulleys for the Vortech high-traction and the larger idler. Wasn't terribly difficult. I fashioned my own spacer out of a 3/4" x 1" x 1" steel spacer from Lowe's. The shaft is 0.785" and the required spacing is 3/8", just FYI. I cut the spacer to 3/8" and dremelled out the inner surface until it fit on snugly with a little effort. Remember, the idler pulley also needs a 3/8" spacer (or washers, since they don't spin)!!!

I bought a 3/8-24 x 2" bolt for the jackshaft and I used the old jackshaft bolt for the new SC pulley.

Also FYI, I had an old 8-rib belt lying around that I used to wrap the SC pulley while loosening the pulley bolt.

I can get pictures of the specifics, if desired.

I already have the spacer from 928, thanks for the info on it needing to be 3/8" and the bolt length, good info. I was going to use washers on the idler pulley.

Yes i do, its been sitting for 2 years now LOL!

Im having it tuned this week. hopefully my fuel system holds, stock jack and stock serp side, 2.80" on blower with low/mid range impeller.

I like that little tensioner/pulley for the serp side belt, can you sell me that little piece? lol
i bet that baby helps with belt slippage

Do you have anyone running this kit with a TI trim? Or a V2 head unit?

It could work but not as simply as swapping the manifolds. The entire cold side piping would have to be redone.

Yep can be done but definitely not cheap. Will add a few thousand to your build cost with just the manifold and adapters alone (they do sell it). And then the piping fab—all for just cosmetic. I’d put that money to wheels or bodywork instead. I’ll post up if Brian gets back to me about it I know he was trying to sell his a while back. I think he was selling his entire kit for $7k though so if that includes piping not as bad

I know it's not going to bolt on cause it's going to be installed on a 2009 M35 but his kit will be the base and I will make necessary adjustments and mods to make it work. I know the sc bracket will bolt on. New pipings n brackets at least is needed to make it work.
