      Group Buy: Alutec Lightweight Crank Pulley (E-TEC II engine)

      Hey guys...so we've been searching around trying to come back to your community with something that isn't to readily available. Well...we were able to find a company overseas, Alutec, that makes a lightweight crank pulley for the Aveo. Here's some info on it:


      • Constructed out of grade 7075-T6 aerospace aluminum for its higher tensile strength & light weight properties compared to conventional pulleys made from 6061 grade.
      • Features ultra hard anodizing (evident in the gunmetal color) for superior resistance to friction, ensuring ultra durability.
      • Factory balanced and counter-weighted for direct bolt-on with factory belt positioning.
      • Easily gain 5-10% power & torque on NA cars & 10% or above for forced induction cars, depending on car's set-up!
      • Linear power gains across rpm range and torque curve - increased torque & power from low to high end ! Increased throttle response instantly felt !
      • O.E sized (no underdrive) - suitable for street cars / daily driver running extensive I.C.E, and suitable for both manual or auto trans.
      • Most cost-effective and affordable tuning mod (instant response felt)!

      If there's enough interest I may be able to set something up with a damn good price shipped.

      ***Update***

      We are pretty well done talking with Alutec getting their products here to the US. NGT will be getting 15 pulleys in stock. The only way we will go through with this Group Buy is if most of the pulleys are sold within this GB.

      Pricing will go as follow:

      2003-2008 Chevrolet Aveo 1.6L Alutec Lightweight Crank Pulley:
      Retail Price Shipped: $175.00 *within 48 States
      NGT Price Shipped: $125.00 *within 48 States

      ***Keep in mind, after this Group Buy the price will go up. So, get your's now!***

      The lightweight crank pulley is at OEM size but just made much lighter. The lightweight underdrive pulley is made smaller than OEM and is also made lighter.

      I'm working on pricing yet. It depends on how many are sold in the group buy as well as NGT buys to stock.

      That's a good question. I should have known to ask about that before hand. My bad...I'll find out ASAP

      depending on pricing, I may have to put my name on the list for one of these. Sorry to veer off subject a little bit but, along similar lines, has anyone found a workable solution for a lightweight flywheel? I have an 04 manual! I know at somepoint I will be replacing the clutch, I would like to find a lightweight flywheel before that time gets here.
