Does anyone know??

If there is one made have you seen a dyno?

Afaik, it will work.

Before the site went down, there was a post about it being available (or compatible) with a 986.

Most h.p. figures were in the 12 to 15 at the wheels. Its underdriven by 16%

The main reason for 987's to change it is to slow down the power steering pump, to avoid overheating the p.s. fluid during extensive track time.

BBI has a nice looking site but I did not see anything about the underdrive pulleys.

I must have in my back up brain.

Gary....Be Careful! The underdrive pully IIRC will give you more boost and if you are already at 6SI that may put you over the top. I will check with IA on my kit tomorrow

No never mind just theSC unless the turbos are running on a belt system..... I honestly do not know much about the systm you are running. i would check with your guy first though on that.

Also have you done the plenum yet?
