I suppose you guys can send the money anytime now. I'll want payment from everyone before we can order the pulleys. At most I'll wait 1.5 weeks, or until November 5th. If you haven't paid up by then you aren't going to be getting a pulley (if you have extenuating circumstances, PM me and we can work something out). But, I'm hoping everyone chips in right away.

Will pulleys from lets say a Toyota or Honda 1.6 fit?
The ALTA Performance™ lightened crank pulley for the MINI Cooper achieves power and performance by reducing the rotating mass of the crank assembly. Made from 6061T6 aluminum and weighing in at .9 lbs, the ALTA pulleys™ are more then 6.2 lbs lighter then the stock crank pulley. That reduction is effectively the same as removing 100 pounds of weight from your vehicle. Choose one of the ALTA Performance™ overdrive crank pulleys and increase your boost levels at the same time. The 2%, 3% and 4% pulleys will artificially increase your supercharger size by 2%, 3% and 4% too! If you have a 15% pulley on your supercharger now, you can add the ALTA Performance™ 2% overdrive crank pulley and make your 15% pulley perform like a 17% pulley. An underdrive pulley for your alternator is highly recommended if you run an overdrive crank pulley so your electrical system doesn’t over charge. Exceeding 19% is not recommended. 19% will exceed the factory ECU's tuning capacity and require special tuning or engine damage will occur.
Craven Pulleys for the BMW Mini Cooper are lightened to cut rotating mass, improving engine efficiency and response. Pulleys are precision CNC machined to +/- 0.001" in order to maintain better-than-factory balancing and minimize excess noise. Stock size pulleys are the perfect compromise that allow you to use the existing serpentine belt from your car without under-powering your car's electronics.
Compare the 7lbs. weight of the stock Cooper S pulley or 3lbs. on the Cooper to the mere .875 lbs. of this lightened pulley! mini cooper has a 1.6 16 valve engine as the aveo.
I can pretty much guarantee they won't.
ok I'm getting a head of my self but. Mini Cooper S John Cooper Works Engine Package 03-08: eBay Motors (item 200534491754 end time Oct-29-10 09:05:54 PDT)
does it matter that the aveo has DOHC and that mini is a SOHC? and ill send my payment soon. Ill pm you when i send it
Everything matters, the fastener diameter, the bore diameter, key size, the outer diameter, how many rib belt it uses... So many things could be different.
No hurry on the payment. I'll update the first post to track who has and hasn't paid.
Wow. Pulleys are not interchangeable like wheels. Even this pulley only fits first gen aveos.
