i'd be worried about the pullies unless they're a name brand.
you dont want something cheap to blow apart when its spinning at 9,000+ rpm....

because of work and how long it took us to fabricate the intake (the idiot who i got it from welded the M.A.F. part on the wrong way so we had to a bit of work) we only got the intake and the shifting **** on. However, I didn't put that on til i got home. So it's hard to see it! better picture of that in the morning for now. Enjoy the pics and a short video showing off my mean 8 ball haha.

holy crap, it sounds like the Mazda 727P1 Le Mans 4 rotor race car. MAybe because we're not on the exhaust side of the car and the hood was open, but still, that's a healthy rotary, mine sounded nothing like that, mine was a deep roar.......
