I would go with the pineapple one because it is smaller and does not take up as much room on that side of the motor.

That turbo is placed much lower than pretty much every manifold setup I've ever seen. I don't see that working for 99% of us.

^ Agreed. I was surprised how low your turbo sat the first time I saw it.

With the Pineapple pulley it is definitely smaller. Furthermore, they now have 2 designs. One actually allows for more room than their initial design by using the waterpump as the bracket mounting point. Last time I talked to Rob, they were soon to be released.

Damn. And this one just looked sooooo good! I'm sad I missed out on the Tweakit pulley.

You could try it. Just get some measurements from the manufacturer and see if your turbo would clear it. One thing I do like about this is that it uses the post from the airpump. Though it is asthetic, I always though it seemed out of place hanging there on single turbo cars.

Looks like a nice product, remember the price on that site is in UK pounds, so it will be nearly double that figure for US dollars.

It might or might not fit, that's a crapshoot. Their other pullies and parts look pretty good as well.
