Lapping = Fapping

I had a stock pulley that would lightly rub an aftermarket impeller housing/casting. A stock housing wouldn't do this. The solution at the time was to switch to another stock pulley that was manufactured slightly different which didn't rub. Next time I mess with it I'll simply grind 1mm off the casting. It's gotta get painted anyway to match the engine it's going on.
You know the noise those gilmer setups make? Creating noise = power robbing. It may be just a small amount, but if ultimatejay lost power, that could be the reason.
The only noisy belt setup I will use is a Camden SC because they at least add power while boosting.
