Kustom Imports Lil Bit@h

[BlownOne]

So I received my KI lil bitxh crank pulley and wanted to post a few pics and show off the nice billet piece. This is the smaller of the two offered, but is still larger that the only other available crank pulley on the market. Shipping was fast, even considering it came from Canada. The kit contains a new 7 rib belt, 70mm idler, billet aluminum black anodized crank pulley and grade 12 bolts. It will require a little grinding of a mounting boss that is near the belt to prevent contact/shredding.

Without knowing the exact size of the 034 blower pulley I'm going to be running as of next week (they can either chime in or if they give me permission to release info I will add it) I should be near the 24k rpm limit based on my calcs using cts 57.02" as my reference. With my ported blower, my intake, KI crank pulley, 034 blower pulley/tune I should hit 10's come fall

Where are the pictures you speak of?

You were too quick lol

[Loe]

Can't wait to get mine! =) looks like 034motorsports has something interesting in a tune. Great to see a hi-po tuner that came barreling out of the gates write a file!

[cspcrx]

Very nice, sorry was too quick on the draw!

wow this is getting confusing so JHM has one pulley, then fluidamper offer larger than JHM and oem size.. then those kustom import which have 2 size and both larger than JHM..

Size is cool, but if no tuner offer a tune for them ( beside epl based on the JHM size) i don't see the point of all these different size no ??

Someone is supposed to put a table together for us. I posted a lot of size specs in another thread.

As for tunes, I know fluidampr sent their od pulleys to a few tuners so hopefully we will see some tunes taking advantage of crank/sc ratios higher than 3.

That's awesome, I have one of the "Big Bitxhes" and I'm in Sac too. I'll post a pic of it next to the stock crank pulley tomorrow so people can see the contrast. Get that thing installed before the next Audi event at Sac Raceway next month. I'll try to do the same.

[whiped]

If you guys have a chance can you let me know the size of those in mm?

If I have time tomorrow I will put together a thread outlining pulley options.

I've been waiting for their software release somewhat patiently, can't wait to see what they bring to the table!

You do this, I'll throw it in excel and graph it! I didn't even know this company existed, so I'm obviously not the right one to gather the info. Lol

You were too quick lol

that's what she said

[blackfunk]

that's what she said

LOL. Never. Just right on time. LMAO

[colby7]

The big one is 194mm.

[jimrobbington]

The big one is 194mm.

I'm going to start measuring my dick in mm. Sounds huge.

[BlownOne]

Hahahaha then when you tell a female about it she will expect an arm to fall out of your pants!

The lil Bitch is 184mm

Yea from what they have proven already, they are going to be a hard to beat! Best thing is that they actually have a B8 to test, tune, daily drive, etc, which helps work out all the kinks.

It's near the crank pulley and idler.

Wanna trade?? 😏

Yea it went from one option, to several.

It will only require a few tweaks to the ecu tune to prevent the addiontional psi or two of boost from being bled and adding a bit more fuel.

[colby7]

Yours came with an idler? Hmm, mine didn't.

[colby7]

Here are a couple pictures of the stock crank pulley and the 194mm pulley. I weighed them this morning: The OEM pulley weighed 8.6 lbs, and the 194mm weighed 5.8 lbs. That's 33% lighter, even though it's a lot bigger.

Yea but it was due to belt length for my setup.

Wow that's a lot lighter! Pics didn't come up tho

Ordered the 184mm kit the other day and wasn't aware of this. Thanks for posting this information.

So the 034 Motorsports dual pulley tune - this will be done through Revo? From looking at their site?

Only some sizes come with a idler due to limited belt sized.Blown one ordered a different size pulley then you.

No. They are an authorized REVO dealer, but they are writing their own software for our platform.

Sounds good! I'm glad I have all of the parts. It will be going on in the next few weeks. I'll let you know how it goes.

No problem!

No this will be 034's tune, but they aren't officially released yet as they are still doing r&d.

[Loe]

That is very cool they are supporting this pulley! I just ordered mine, very excited for an extra 2psi over my current setup.

[Jflow23]

Those are my pics from my install. I assume Matt sent those to you? I have the big bitch. Make sure you grind before you install the pulley. You need to remove about a 1/16th" to ensure the belt remains clear.

B8.5 problem only from what I understand...which is why it wasn't previously discovered. I found it when I did my install about three weeks ago. I was waiting for Matt to confirm the issue before I broadcasted...but looks to be confirmed.

[s4matty]

This is not really a problem.
Any pulley that is over 180mm my pulleys or another companies will need this modification done..It's very minor for the gains you will see..

It was a quick fix...and well worth the effort. Focus on the upper portion of the mount and you'll be done in about 10-15 mins with a dremel...that's taking your time and being careful.

[BlownOne]

Yes those were the pics Matt sent me to give me a heads up and I was just spreading the info for those interested. Knocking off a 1/4" from that mounting boss isn't a big deal at all...should take just a minute with a die grinder and carbide bit.

Please comment on your install when you complete it. I couldn't get the accessory belt on without removing the supercharger guide roller first. If I was aware of the grinding and the roller removal before hand, could have finished the whole thing in about 3hrs...took about 5 instead, but that included belt rub discovery, grinding and 30 minutes of fighting that accessory belt.

Some useful pics for others attacking this install.

may i ask which one to grind off?

is it show at your picture?

[Jflow23]

Look at BlownOne's pics above, that's my install. The area is between pulley 1 and 4 in the diagram.

[OnEaNgRyBuNnY]

Any link to this? I can't find it for the life of me.

[mrb5_supra_wrx]

Where can you buy the ki pulleys not finding anything about them anywhere trying to find a 189mm

[colby7]

PM s4matty

They're his pullies. He makes them on his cnc machine.
