who are you? you probably should have stayed on topic. and he asked a question, then proceeds to tell us all how great lightweight pulley are. They aren't ask any tuner worth his while and you will see. Im not armchairing anything
What the hell are you talking about? I never mentioned ANYTHING about how great pulleys are. As a matter of fact, I wasn't even recommending it. I don't need to ask a tuner anything since I've been running lightweight pulleys years and years.

Armchairing would be knowing the outcome and then coming back and saying X should have done Y. Im saying he shouldnt do it all on this car. Every car is different but ok. When my tuner who is widely considered the go to on 10th gens says no to lightweight pulleys, ill take his word for it.
Well then, you need to find a real 'tuner' who knows his shit... Otherwise, you can just get lost, bro.

It's not our fault you screwed up your tranny and lost your stupid dog.

No problem! For the record....
1) I don't recommend anyone get a lightweight pulley,
2) Listen to your tuner if they say it is not a worthy upgrade. Or anyone else that may tell you this or from your own personal experience.
3) I won't be posting before and after 1/4 mile time info on the pulley specifically. Even if I get a better 1/4 mile time, I won't attribute it to the pulley itself...even if the weather condition is exactly the same and it was the same day on the same track. That's not how I work.

I will post up 1/4 mile times and state the weather condition and what modifications have been done when that 1/4 mile time was achieved. That's what I always have done. In the meantime, was just looking for weight info. Since I've ordered the pulley, I'll be weighing it myself now. So no biggie!

We have a very reputable tuner, and he says the pulley is a worthless mod. Got some dyno’s of a 10th gen with the pulley “upgrade” to validate that it’s worth putting on? Do you have any testing data? If not you have no room to talk, just sound ignorant.

Ok Corolla boy, Who are you? and what is your problem? My tuner knows his stuff, in fact, he probably knows more about this platform than most, so back off pal. And watch the cuss words, or you'll get a nice message from the admin asking you to clean it up ;)

What happened to the transmission?
It's acting a fool. I have it at Honda right now getting looked it. I definitely think its cvt related but they were going to check the motor mounts too bc the vibration was so bad

Think it's related to the tune? Did you flash back to stock?

oh yeah, flashed back on Saturday and put some miles on it before i took it in. It wasnt as bad once it was factory, but I think thats because once I put the stock tune, the ECU function like factory. The minute it feels the CVT messing up it lowers boost to save the CVT. It was barely making 9 psi on the stock tune this weekend. It would hit 12-13 previously when on stock tune. And at 70 you could mash the gas and it would take 10 seconds to get to 75, you can tell its not putting the power to the wheels at all

That sucks, keep us posted. I'm trying/running a 24psi tune on mine, it's good so far but you never know.

How many miles on the car/tune?
27k, e30 blend custom tune. Once I know the outcome or at least get a call back today, Ill post a topic on the forum about it.

will do, at this point, I want it to be replaced or if not hopefully I can baby it a few months until the Accord 2.0 Sport is out. Though an SI might be in my future. At least an SI, the wing, and all my aftermarket accessories will fit
