This is the RSS dampened underdrive pulley for a 3.8L on my 3.4L swap in my 02 Boxster S. I am just waiting on an air filter (making a custom airbox for it), and then it is off to the dealer for a re-flash and alignment).

Please tell where to get the dampener or dampener/pulley combo. I checked RSS website and could only find the pulley itself.

I'm doing a LWF and will need it badly.

It is an item not yet advertised on their website. Call 714-545-1046 tomorrow, and ask for Bryan, tell him Carlos sent you. They have been an absolute delight to deal with thus far, and are more than accomodating, near to the likes of the folks over at FVD Brombacher.

Thanks, I'm still trying to source a quality clutch that has a sprung disc made from decent material for the 3.2.

so what is the concensus on size and what not. im most concerned about the torque low end i do not care so much about dampened or not just performance. and slowing down accessories and retaining drivability. personally Jake i would like to buy your product. but is it exclusive for your retrofit customers?
